Message-Id: <20061205022216.C3E4DDA824@mailserver7.hushmail.com> Date: Tue, 05 Dec 2006 13:22:15 +1100 From: <ninjadaito@...hmail.com> To: <full-disclosure@...ts.grok.org.uk> Cc: Subject: Re: Financial firms warned of Qaeda cyber attack -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bah!! Al-Qaeda this, Al-Qaeda that, links to Al-Qaeda - pfffffft! Seems that Al-Qaeda is as much under everybody's bed as Joseph McCarthy's communists once were. Whenever anything remotely whiffy happens, Al-Qaeda is behind it. If your peanuts are all eaten or your beer is flat, it's the devious work of shadowy Al-Qaeda. The odd thing is that most everybody knows it for what it is. Except of course for poor 'ole George W. Bush and his blind followers - living in complete denial of reality. So, when the *real* wolf happens along - who will be listening? Nobody! Speaking of the wolf - I wouldn't want to be holding too many US dollars anyway - seems the arse is going to fall out of it - we just don't know when. Buy Gold!! Later... Love, Ninja. All flames automatically redirected to the bit-bucket.
