Terrorists using Yahoo.com

Bin Laden, Zarqawi speeches, videos of executions

Islamic terrorists are using the popular Internet gateway Yahoo.com for indoctrination and incitement, according to a monitor of Middle East media.

One of the most popular sites is http://geocities.yahoo.com/, which rents space for users to construct their own websites, the Middle East Media Research Institute reported.

Among the terrorist websites hosted by Yahoo is http://www.geocities.com/esknas/index.html, which includes the speeches of al-Qaida's leader in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, and videos showing executions of hostages.

The site's front page begins with the following message:


"Oh believers, do not form an allegiance with the Jews and the Christians; they are allied with each other. He who forms an allegiance with them is one of them, and Allah will not guide the oppressors (Koran 5:51). The jihad warriors mete out the punishment of Allah, be he praised, to the American and Jewish infidels, and to the murtaddun (apostates)."
The videos of hostage executions are described as "[showing] the slaughter, by jihad fighters, of infidel Christian and Jewish agents, murtaddun, spies, traitors, corrupt [individuals], [members of] the murtadd National Guard, enemies of Islam and of the Muslims and Shi'ite infidels."

The list of videos available on the site includes:



"Execution of Nick Berg

Slaughter of Jack Hansley

Execution of an American spy

Slaughter of [Eugene] Armstrong

Execution of Syousei Kouda

Slaughter of Paul Johnson

Slaughter of Kin Sun

Slaughter of a murtadd

Slaughter of an American from the CIA

Slaughter of the Jew Daniel Pearl

Slaughter of a Nepali

Slaughter of Kenneth Bigley

Slaughter of a murtadd...

Slaughter of a murtadd engineer

Slaughter of 11 [members of] the National Guard..."

Another Islamist website hosted on Yahoo, apparently affiliated with the aforementioned site, is http://www.geocities.com/mojahedoon35/, which features speeches by Osama bin Laden and al-Zarqawi along with a guide for building and operating weapons.

The terrorist organizations also disseminate their messages on Yahoo forums and form discussion groups.

One discussion group, called Modjahede, includes links to Islamist sites and to videos distributed by terrorist organizations.

It also has guides for building and operating conventional and nuclear weapons.

Internet Haganah, an organization that works to uncover and shut down websites affiliated with the global jihad, said it had been tracking and monitoring 25 major Hezbollah sites and found that, aside from two established in Iran and one in the UK, the rest of the Hezbollah sites were hosted by American companies. Israeli security sources confirmed the organization's findings.
