Talk About Yer ‘Asymmetric Warfare’! (smile)
Headline says it all.
Apparently they’ve managed to take down or degrade a number of well-known Daesh Twitter accounts. Seems that Daesh members find the images “haram” and either make the accounts private – or drop the accounts entirely.
Whatever works.

Fook ’em if they can’t take a joke.
Joke ’em if they can’t take a fuck.
It must not have been the goat porn theyre used to
I read this earlier and chuckled with delight!
I can just imagine the pre-op planning conference and the 20 something analyst who came up with the idea … and all the 30, 40, and 50 somethings just sat back and said, “good plan, glad we thought of it, execute plan”.
Heh…now that’s just funny.
In other news..ISIS reports its front line advances have nearly come to a complete halt as most of its fighters have holed up in porta potties for hours on end while they “review” their twitter accounts.
Are any of them running for Congress?
(That was a jab at Mike Webb, in case you didn’t get it)
I laughed my ass off when I read about that, if I knew who any of them were I’d be glad to buy them a case of Red Bull or Monster Drinks and some Cheetos or Doritos!
Dear Allah,
I do not understand why you are not smiting the evil blasphemous bastards of the twitterverse for this?
And kudos to Anonymous for hacking the ISIS cash flow, too! Steal the stolen money from the thieves!
“I swear, all I was doing was tweeting “Death to the infidels!” and watching another glorious beheading when that stuff came up.”
Long ago in a battalion far far away, I worked IN S3 for a particularly sneaky CW3. One of his favorite games was “The Porn Bomb”. He’d photocopy an explicit centerfold, then re-insert the copy back into the copier. He would then proceed to print out 50 copies or so of the OPORDER for an upcoming exercise. Some unsuspecting officer would get a bonus in his copy.
That is a scream.
Y’know, my dad retarded as a CW3, and that sounds like the Warrant Officer reindeer games he spoke of…
>Y’know, my dad retarded as a CW3
I knew getting a mental disability was part of the commissioning process, but dang! 😉
Warrants can be some treacherous pranksters. A warrant with a senior NCO partner in crime can be a truly wonderful thing!
I wonder if any of them had captions, like “Booty Call at Al and Moe’s Bar and Swine Grill on Friday after Prayer – 2 for deal on drinks and other haram activities!”
No way any western gov agency is doing this because that would be toxic, bullying, and harassment of ones religion. The scum of civilization being trolled and having to hide because of it is hilarious. I hope this continues and Obama doesn’t go on an apology tour for it before he leaves office.
Well nothing says fuck you like tit slapping the twitter accounts….
This just makes me laugh.
I remember hearing about Anonymous going after these accounts a while back, and there was some concern -reasonable, I thought- in the IC that doing so would tip off that certain accounts were known, and thus probably under surveillance.
But then time and time again, assholes we have ‘under surveillance’ seem to go out and do terrible things, so I just figured fuck it – if Anonymous and other groups want to have fun, give us all a laugh, and score a PR victory for freedom, I’m all for it.
That said, the Brits still win for the best ‘hack attack’ on AQ – they replaced bomb-making recipes with cupcake ones in AQ’s magazine:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/blogpost/post/operation-cupcake-mi6-replaces-al-qaeda-bomb-making-instructions-with-cupcake-recipes/2011/06/03/AGFUP2HH_blog.html
Not exactly Operation Mincemeat, but pretty doggone good.
Oh, man, cupcake bombs? That is the best idea ever!
How about goat meatloaf bombs?
I strongly suggest dropping a parachute division of life-sized blowup dolls on them. Just make sure the plastic babes are set to make splodey dopes out of the bad guys.
They already tried dropping anatomically correct female blow-ups rigged with explosives and an internal contact switch. The first set was ineffective because they put the contact switch up the plastic vagina instead of up the doll’s butt. The second lot had the contact switch up the doll’s behinds – but they were ineffective. The switch was anchored 2″ in and none of the users could reach it. Third gen is in the works.
Oh fuck – THAT is funny.
No haram, no foul…..
