tsamsoniw writes "PNC, Bank of America, SunTrust, and other major financial institutions have experienced a wave of DDoS attacks and site outages over the past couple of days, and Islamic extremist hacker group Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Cyber Fighters is claiming responsibility. The group, which launched similar attacks earlier this year, reiterated its demands: that a controversial YouTube video mocking the prophet Mohammed "be eliminated from the Internet.""

    The group ... reiterated its demands: that a controversial YouTube video mocking the prophet Mohammed "be eliminated from the Internet."

    And these idiots think the banks are responsible and/or control the Internet and its content? - sigh

    Remember that these are the same kinds of people that caused tens of thousands of Muslims to be killed in Iraq and Afghanistan by triggering "The War on Terror" by killing three thousand civilians.

    These are the same kind of people who have not figured out that firing hundreds of missiles a year in to Israel will only get more Palestinians killed.

    Logic and clear thinking is not exactly their forte.

    How about we just eliminate all of the Prophet Mohammed's followers from the face of the earth?

    Maybe the banks should tell them if they don't stop the they'll retaliate by bombing Mecca with pigs.

    I've really had enough of these shit-heads.

    Funny how they have exactly the same misdirected opinion of you.

    Do you not recognize yourself in the mirror here? A small subset of a group of people blame an entire group of another people for the actions of a small subset of them.

    Islamic history that they don't teach at Harvard:

    Christianist islamophobe should try Googling "Crusades" and "Trail of Tears" before firing artillery shells from within his glass dome.
