Eighth District GOP Website Hit By Anti-Israel Hackers

18 January 2010

THE MINNESOTA INDEPENDENT (MINNESOTA)- The for Minnesota’s 8th District GOP website showed a burning American flag, the words “death to Israel,” masked militants with RPGs and the telltale words "HaCKeD by CWkomando" on Monday. The site now contained no links, but only words and images, including a dedication, “For Palestine,” the repeated phrase “Allahu Akbar” (”God is great,” in Arabic) and photos of masked militants with rocket launchers and rifles. Minnesota’s GOP isn’t the only organization that had to deal with hackers that morning. The hackers defaced the website of a French/Italian restaurant in Chicago the same way, as well as a Twitter user in San Francisco. The group also hit a site called GrowSmartBusiness recently.
