The Rise and Fall of an Internet Jihadi

For those of you interested in the private fight against public terrorists, these articles are for you. This is a follow up to our earlier report on the arrest of the internet's #1 cyber-jihadi, Irhabi 007. Why this is important, to quote Aaron:

The point of this story is simple but important:

There is no wall, no dividing line, nothing separating online jihadist activity from off-line/real-world jihadist activity (i.e terrorism). The two are inseparable.

If you want to know the whole story on how Aaron at Internet Haganah effectively tracked down Irhabi 007, and how Irhabi 007 fought back, check out these posts in this order:


One
Two
Three
Four
Five
Six

For a boiled down version of the story, see this
from the ADL.

For my own part, I don't think Irhabi 007 knew that it was me and my readers signing him up for free daily porn pics and the pork-of-the-month club. Although, it would have been nice to hear him complain about it.

Although, I was pleased to see this at a popular jihadi forum on the internet:

As-salam 'Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah

----, next time, if you're going to talk about a website, please just put the name, or don't put the full url. The problem is that many people get curious and start visiting anti websites when we tell them the url.

There is not one, but many such websites, and some use islamic or muslim names to set traps and get people's IP. Sometimes they upload videos and anashid there or tell people to send them. But they do this on purpose.

I read a message that tells names of more, copy pasting them without any changes:

Category: Start / Terrorism Researchers:
The watchers........

[names of other websites deleted]

-The Jawa Report

That is the sound of me gloating.

2 Rusty was asking about who would a person turn to to learn how to blow himself or others up. He was talking about the Joel Henry Hinrich case. Ur uh this would be the type that Joel would have turned to.

3 The whole Hinrichs thing still stinks to me. I'm not saying I think he was part of a wider Muslim terror plot. But he was certainly inspired by people like this guy. And whatever anyone says ... I don't think he intended to blow just himself up. Just my 2 cents.
