>From [undercurrents on http://bbs.thing.net] aljazeera in english

I actually heard an interesting news report tonight on Pacifica by the
host of the hacker hour called OFF THE HOOK. he said that as soon as the
al-jazeera site in English went up, known hackers started receiving emails
from people begging them to hack into it and take it down. most of the
emails came from hotmail addresses, but the hackers were able to trace
many of them .mil addresses, which means US military is urging hackers to
engage in the same "cyberterrorism" they want to make illegal.
