Anonymous Hackers’ Group Declares War On ISIS by fullpapaz(m): 10:03am On Nov 17, 2015
As warplanes pound ISIS targets and U.S. special forces ramp up operations in Syria, the war against the terrorist group may be unfolding on another far more unconventional front as well.
The hackers’ collective known as Anonymous says it, too, is at war with ISIS. In a series of messages posted on Twitter and YouTube, Anonymous claimed to be “preparing to unleash waves of attacks” on the extremist group, which is also known as the Islamic State, ISIL, or by its Arabic acronym Daesh.
Though the latest messages refer to Friday’s terrorist attacks in Paris, which left 129 people dead and more than 300 wounded, the Anonymous activists want to be clear that they’ve been fighting this fight for some time.



But what does an online declaration of “war” really amount to?

“Cyberattacks can have a tremendous impact,” cyberwarfare expert David Gewirtz told CBS News. “Of course, they can’t be used to arrest people or take terrorists off the field, but they can certainly be used to compromise structural components of terrorist operations. More to the point, they can go after both the money that terrorists have and their funding sources. Damaging the money flow can certainly have an impact on the terrorists’ operations.”
