Jihad in -cyber- space?
The Spiders
Discussion at Nettime: "The internet is the place of "tactical media" in many ways and one tactic in this "clash of civilisations", that is a fake anyway, is to spread false rumors, to try to destroy the identity of the warriors or whatever they are, whatever is happening.
A google search on "Global Islamic Media Front" showed nothing but links to "counterpropaganda" sites, there is a campaign, one of them with such nonsense like: "But when a man emerges from a house that is under surveillance for terror-related reasons, is wearing unusual clothing, refuses to stop for police and rushes onto a Tube train, it is hard to argue that police on the scene have many choices. The ultimate blame belongs to the terrorists who have made London a city under siege." ¶ Tuesday, August 09, 2005
