Researcher Says Social Networks Link Terrorists

Posted by samzenpus on from the you-have-a-terrorist-request dept.

An anonymous reader writes "At the International Conference on Cyber Security 2009 in New York, Evan Kohlmann, a senior investigator and private consultant for Global Terror Alert, claimed that a new breed of terrorists are using online forums to recruit people who align themselves with the mission of Al Qaeda, creating global networks of would-be terrorists."

    You know I always thought about this one.

    If I go back and think about when I lost my virginity I have say it was not the most exciting of times. Sure great now you "officially" did it, but it is a hell of a lot more interesting as time went along.

    So somebody who thinks, "oh yes 50 times this" must actually be some kind of nut case. It is a really imaginative bit of brainwashing.

    I bet many are quite envious of this...
