As with our own terrorists who like to brag about their nonexistent hacking skills, the purported ISIS hackers say that they&#8217;ve breached government computers, but that doesn&#8217;t seem to be the case;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The information about the U.S. military personnel appears to be derived from information found in public records, basic online searches, news reports, and on social media&#8230;Officials have not indicated the information was hacked from government servers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2015\/03\/22\/world\/middleeast\/isis-urges-sympathizers-to-kill-us-service-members-it-identifies-on-website.html?_r=0\"> New York Times<\/a> quotes the internet posting;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWith the huge amount of data we have from various different servers and databases, we have decided to leak 100 addresses so that our brothers in America can deal with you,\u201d the Islamic State\u2019s so-called Hacking Division said in the web posting.<\/p>\n<p>It added: \u201cAnd now we have made it easy for you by giving you addresses, all you need to do is take the final step, so what are you waiting for?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/2015\/03\/21\/us-mideast-crisis-threat-idUSKBN0MH0QQ20150321\">Reuters<\/a> says that the military authorities are taking the threat seriously;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The Pentagon said after the information was posted on the Internet that it was investigating the matter. &#8220;I can&#8217;t confirm the validity of the information, but we are looking into it,&#8221; a U.S. defense official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We always encourage our personnel to exercise appropriate OPSEC (operations security) and force protection procedures,&#8221; the official added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The cyber terrorists ask what their acolytes are waiting for&#8230;well, they&#8217;re probably waiting for a gun ban or an ammo ban from this administration. Notice the only place that military personnel have been targeted on this side of The Big Water is in Canada where gun control is real. US military personnel have more and easier access to firearms in their homes than they do on military bases.<\/p>\n<p>But, it&#8217;s pretty common for terrorists to try and create fear with empty threats as we&#8217;ve been accustomed to our own domestic terrorists who can&#8217;t seem to stay away from this blog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ABC News reports that a group calling themselves the &#8220;Islamic State Hacking Division&#8221; have released a &hellip; <a title=\"More ISIS threats to military personnel\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=58851\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">More ISIS threats to military personnel<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":58852,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-58851","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-terror-war"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58851","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=58851"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58851\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/58852"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=58851"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=58851"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=58851"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
