Blogger Hacked by Online Terrorists Over Mohammed Cartoons

Our good freind Aaron has been hacked by the al3iznet crew. You can see a captured image of the hacked page here. It appears that he was targetted for his promotion of the Mohammed cartoons as this particular group of online terrorists has turned their attention to supporters of free speech in Denmark.

The group is well known and has hacked the Kingdom of Bahrain's website in the past. They've also targetted several Danish bloggers such as Nodblog and Uriaposten. So, Aaron ought to feel himself in good company.

Apparently, the cyber attack originated from Saudi Arabia. You mean to tell me there are terrorists from Saudi Arabia? I don't believe it!

Beth calls this the online equivalent of a fatwa. I'm sooooo jealous. All this time I've put in for a fatwa and what do I get? Nothing!

Ever wanted to e-mail an online terrorist? It just so happens that we have the e-mail address of the crew responsible for the wave of online terrorism:

al3iz@hotmail.com

Why not drop a line and let this guy know what you think of him.

UPDATE: It looks like another old friend, TC Leather Penguin, was also hacked, but he's back up again. As McGehee notes, both attacks were on Word Press users. The same can be said of the Danish bloggers who were attacked. Is there a flaw in Word Press that the ROPers have learned to exploit to their own advantage?

2 Heh. And now it looks like his site's been restored to its pre-hack condition. ABUYD.

3 What a lame, pathetic attempt. Of course, it's no coincidence that muslims and liberals use the same bullying tactics, and to the same effect.

4 No Beth, my foulmouthed female fellow traveller, I'm not on Hosting Matters. I trust my stuff to DataPipe, who are GODS when it comes to fixing this kind of crap and had me back up and running in under and hour of me filing the work ticket.

5 It wasn't through WordPress. It was through the CPanel. ABUYD... I always heard this as "He who laughs last just did a backup."

7 Good grief. All this fuss over some cartoons. You know, while all that was going on the first week or two, I was getting some hits from Pakistan and other Middle Eastern countries.

8 He has been hacked again. They must be really pissed! Aaron: Keep pissing them off, please.
