'Kill them wherever they are': ISIS hackers publish 'hit list' of 70 US military personnel
Source: Times of India
LONDON: Islamic State (ISIS) hackers have published a "hit list" of over 70 US military personnel who have been involved in drone strikes against terror targets in Syria and asked their followers to "kill them wherever they are".
According to 'The Sunday Times', the hackers have links with Britain and call themselves 'Islamic State Hacking Division' and circulated online the names, home addresses and photographs of more than 70 US staff, including women and urged supporters: "Kill them wherever they are, knock on their doors and behead them, stab them, shoot them in the face or bomb them."
The group also claimed that it might have a mole in the UK's ministry of defence and threatened to publish "secret intelligence" in the future that could identify Britain's Royal Air Force (RAF) drone operators.

(20,176 posts)there is only one appropriate response to this. No matter how good Daesh thinks its hackers are...ours are better.
We can identify these assholes...and when we do, we must do the only most appropriate thing...put their names, faces and addresses on the internet so millions of proudly anti-Daesh human beings can subscribe them to Fingerhut catalogs; disgusting porn mags; send them hundreds of (pork) sausage pizzas (pre-paid, no reason to fuck-over small business pizzeria owners); put them on the interest list of weird cults that will stop by to speak to them about their Lord and Savior, Tom Jones; any other ideas...we don't stop with the annoyance bombing until they turn themselves and their mole in to GCHQ.

A soldier in the field understands the risks, and engagement rules... But for the drone force - I've never understood...
