You often hear the left describe terrorists as illiterate cave dwellers, which is to critize the techical tactics used now to thwart terrorim. Which is why Democrats generally suck at keeping the country safe because they are freaking clueless.

Get a load of this:

“The Middle East Media Research Institue declared that on January 1, 2007 the Global Islamic Media Front (GIMF) announced the imminent release of new computer software called “Mujahideen Secrets.”

The advertisement depicts such software as ‚Äú”the first Islamic computer program for secure exchange [of information] on the Internet,” and it provides users with “the five best encryption algorithms, and with symmetrical encryption keys (256 bit), asymmetrical encryption keys (2048 bit) and data compression [tools].”

The name “Mujahideen Secrets” perfectly matches with the software‚Äôs function, that is to help the flow of information between Islamic activists without any external intrusion: in other words this is the first ‚ÄúIslamic Internet kit‚Äù for data compression and online safe delivery.

According to the SITE Institute , the Global Islamic Media Front (GIMF) is ”a jihadist mouthpiece, and visual and print media organization”, usually associated with Al-Qaeda. The GIMF has often worked on jihadi propaganda through technological projects: their action is mainly centred on a young public and their “products” are released straight to jihadi web forums in order to reach the widest and focused target of users.

Another example of GIMF‚Äôs modus operandi is the computer game called ‚ÄúNight of Bush Capturing.‚Äù The game, which is openly defined as being distributed for “terrorist children”, was released to jihadist forums on September 15, 2006.

‚ÄúNight of Bush Capturing‚Äù is a first-person shooter based on the Quest for Saddam engine. The game features six levels with names such as “Jihad Beginning”, “America’s Hell” and “Bush Hunted Like a Rat”. A soundtrack of Jihadist music loops during play.

There‚Äôs no need to say that the kind of propaganda conveyed by similar tools is aimed just to exacerbate extremist feelings and it doesn‚Äôt bring about any source of useful information. Anyway such cases make clear that the role of the web in global conflicts is more and more relevant both directly and indirectly, and that we should prepare and get ready to what might come next.”

The enemy is may often times live in caves, but they are smarter than the average bear.
