    said the Islamic militant group aimed to penetrate and destroy the databases of the U.S. stock market and banking Web sites.[/i]

  • Where did the article say the International Bankers are Islamic?

    The article is saying that "Al Qaeda" (whoever that really is) is threatening to bring down our economy by hacking the stock market, etc.

    A joke Matthew.
    But personally I do see the bankers as the biggest threat.

  • Ahem.  Chant.  We know the international bankers cleaned our coffers.  Now they are saying the muslims are doing it or going to do it.  A clear case of misinformation.  Like when my niece's little friend wet her pants and blamed it on my niece.  Get it?

  • Oh I know what you're talking about -- of course, the fact that the government will blame the outcome of the bankers' schemes (stock market collapse, housing bubble bursting, people out of work, people losing their pensions, etc.) on a few camel jockeys goes without saying. Heck, they've done it before (9/11).

    So that's nothing new -- but before this article, I hadn't seen an article mentioning anything imminent in a long time.

  • Much ado about nothing here.  Sure, the threat is confirmed, meaning that the intent is there to cause some disruptions. But they won't be successfull.  Countermeasures to denial of service attacks are easy to implement. Especially when your expecting them.

    Nothing much will happen, you can rest easy.

    The very idea that "...to penetrate and destroy the databases of the U.S. stock market and banking Web sites." Demonstrates the height of irrealism of this threat.

    The danger to this type of information is the threat of being exposed, and made public, or used criminally, not being destroyed.  

    Any database can be restored, in little time.
