Hackers connected with terror militant group ISIS have leaked information that could put over 1,500 military personnel and government staff members at risk.

According to these hackers, ISIS has released a list of personal information, including photographs, addresses and even the credit card information of Army, Navy, and State Department figures,” reports CBS News.

ISIS urged attacks to be carried out based on this information.

Listen to Jim Sharp From ‘What Have We Learned Today: Breaking News: ISIS Hacked Dept. of Defense: (Skip to 6.7)

The claim could not be authenticated nor the accuracy of the leaked information, according to a global security firm and there is no way of telling how old the information is.

“The data was published on a website and advertised on social media by the self-proclaimed ‘Islamic State Hacking Division,’ supposedly a group of hackers working for the radical Islamist group,” stated RT.

“It includes a spreadsheet with names, emails, passwords and contact information of some 1,500 people. There are also alleged bank card numbers and screenshots of what appear to be private Facebook conversations between serving US military personnel discussing operations.”

There is some doubt over the validity of this latest list of personal information because it includes, according to the Register, disconnected phone numbers and “The emails listed include a worker in an Israeli magistrates’ court, someone in a college in Mississippi, a person in the Australian National Audit Office, and a UK council worker,” reports RT.

Even if the information provided is deemed garbage, eventually ISIS will get it right. Perhaps an understatement, military personnel and their families have reason for alarm. This is not the first incident of military personnel’s information being stolen and then made public.

In March of this year, personal information was leaked by the Islamic State Hacking Division of 100 military members saying their posting of it on social media was “so that our brothers in America can deal with you,” reports CBS. Those words are enough to drive shivers down the spine of most Non-Muslim Americans.

A spokesperson for the Department of Defense stated in an email, “We are aware of the report but cannot confirm credibility at this time. The safety of our service members is always a primary concern.”

Of course, the military and their families are not the only ones on the hit list. Several U.S. State Department Official’s credit card information has also been thrown in the mix and they have reason for concern as well.

The fear of lone-wolf attacks could be rising as officials admit ISIS has advanced digitally and have been using different social media outlets to recruit new members to their vicious crusade and to spread propaganda throughout the world.

Military personnel have been advised by United States Central Command to treat all threats as real and to “maintain a heightened sense of vigilance.” They emphasize the warning that the ISIS ‘hit list’ should be treated as a cyber threat, that we are “operating in a new norm in which cyber threats are real’ threats.

While Worrying About Flags And Cakes, You Missed A MAJOR Massacre

The first Muslim bomber blew up a church, killing the pastor, a mother and her two children.

July 9, 2015

Mad World News:

If it doesn’t involve the perceived racism of an inanimate object or the flaunting of a rainbow-colored cake, you probably haven’t heard much about it. Much to the leftist government’s delight, the outcry over symbols and symbolism from feminists, the LGBT, blacks, and society in general have shielded our eyes and ears from a major massacre of innocent civilians that should be breaking the Internet like a celebrity’s greased up derrière.

Maybe it’s because we hear about these Islamic atrocities on a daily basis and it perpetuates our selfish boredom or complacency, or perhaps it’s because the media is in the pocket of demanding Islamists. Either way, a Muslim massacre like that of the Islamic Prophet himself has been committed against unsuspecting victims all because they are the unbelievers Allah commands be killed.

The Christian Post reports that over 100 innocent men, women, and children were brutally butchered in their own homes after a militia of Muslims raided their Nigerian city. This massacre proves jihadists’ efforts to bring about a genocidal cleansing of Christians from Africa, as they have done in other countries throughout the world.

Panic ensued when a suicide bomber, suspected of having ties to Boko Haram, blew himself up inside of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, killing the pastor, a mother, and her two children.

More attacks were carried out as the day went on, including the bombing of a local mosque and Muslim restaurant, killing at least 44 people. Devout Islamists often slaughter fellow Muslims who they accuse of disobeying Sharia law or twisting the violent passages of the Quran for their own non-violent purpose.

Just before the bombers detonated, Muslim jihadists headed to a couple of northeastern Nigerian villages and slaughtered at least nine people, USA News reports. The group burned down 32 churches in total and around 300 homes, many with families still inside.

“They killed dozens of people and burned houses after attacking worshipers,” said survivor Mallam Yahi to The Associated Press last week.

“The latest attack by Boko Haram on four churches and those innocently attending Sunday services inside once again affirms the religious motivation of this group’s heinous crimes against the Nigerian people. For years, the Christian population of north Nigeria has faced a devastating offensive by Islamic militants that has yet to be effectively countered,” said Cameron Thomas, International Christian Concern regional manager for Africa.”

Within the last week, dozens of Christians have been savagely butchered by Muslim militants in these few Nigerian towns, yet their plight goes unheard. Many more who are homeless, injured, captive, or in fear for their life have their cries for help ignored.

“The bloodied soil of Kwada and Kautikari villages serve as a heart-rending cry for greater action to ensure the safety of Christians wishing to exercise their right to practice their beliefs free from fear of retribution at the barrel of gun or trigger of an explosive.”

More than 2,000 people this year have been slaughtered by Boko Haram alone, and an estimated 750,000 have been displaced by their terror tactics. Just as in any other country in which Muslims became a large minority, the majority are fleeing their own homeland because of religious and political persecution.

Muslims make up 45 percent of Nigeria’s population and are quickly succeeding in turning yet another country into an Islamic wasteland governed by Sharia law. The peaceful Christian majority is now subject to the intolerance and inhumanity that comes along with Islamic practice.

“Going to school, attending church, or identifying yourself as a Christian is a very brave decision in Nigeria. It is turning into a bloodbath. Christians in the West must stand in the gap with our prayers and support,” says Open Doors USA President/CEO Dr. David Curry.

It’s most likely that this story will not make it to the mainstream media, other than a highlight of world affairs. There will be no protesting, no outrage. The “moderate” Muslim community won’t even speak of it, and their leftist apologists will hide it to senselessly protect their already bloodied reputation.

It is up to us to show our government and those who represent us what is most important. If we continue to circulate repetitive stories about ridiculous symbols that have no inherent power while we turn a blind eye to the same religious and political ideology within our borders that is slaughtering en masse overseas, we have just as much blood on our hands.

Unfortunately, we don’t have the luxury of worrying about the banning of objects as long as the slaughter of innocent people is on the rise with the empowerment of Islam. We must take it head on, lest we usher in our own slaughter.

40,000 American Army Troops Cut – What Does That Mean For Them, America, And YOU?

July 8, 2015

By Lorra B.

We live in a country consumed with fears of potential war and the never-ending threat of ISIS on our own soil. Yet, the U.S. Army is looking to shed 40,000 soldiers from its ranks over the next two years, leaving many citizens and troops concerned that we will not only be ill equipped to fight wars effectively but that our troops moral may sink to all-new lows.

Diminishing resources have been blamed as a contributing factor in cutting active military down to 450,000 troops from 490.000 by the end of 2017. The upcoming cuts have military personnel not only anxious but also changing how they view the military.

$287 million was spent on programs with one goal in mind, improving the morale of the U.S. military. It seems the money spent boosting the soldiers moral may have been better spent finding ways to keep soldiers employed. According to USA Today, 52% of American troops “across all branches remain pessimistic about their future in the military.” What is even more interesting is that declining moral seems to be caused by financial stresses, both in pay grade and longevity of career.

According to a 2014 Military Times study “In 2009, 87 percent of active-duty troops who participated in Military Time’s survey rated their pay and allowances ‘good’ or ‘excellent. This year the figure was just 44 percent.”

Our military has gotten the smallest pay hike in 41 years at just 1%. 

Now, adding to their already low moral, troops also worry about the longevity of their service, and with good cause. The Budget cuts being announced are cuts to the Army but many other military branches are worried as well.

“Thirty years ago, if you were a good airman and worked hard, you could serve for 20 years,” stated Air Force Chief Master Sergeant James Cody. “I’m not sure you can say the same today. [The budget] is curtailing the ability to serve.”

The budget planners at the Pentagon have grieved over the budget restraints saying they are “dangerous to national security, but over the last three years Congress has not found any realistic compromise to replace or dismiss the spending caps.”

The anxieties the budget cuts are creating in the ranks are surmountable. Military members have expressed concerns about career options, their pay and what it will mean for their readiness to fight. Army Sergeant Major Dan Daily stated, “We may have to tell good soldiers to go home.”

Our soldiers “should not have to deal with thinking about if they’re going to have enough resources to go ahead and do our mission,” stated Marine Corps Major Ronald Green.

Soldiers have tremendous burdens just trying to make the resources they have work for them in and off the field. The fear of being ‘laid off’ shouldn’t be another one of those burdens. Yet, it is, and for good reason. 40,000 of their jobs will be cut along with 17,000 civilian Army workers.

What does this all mean for the Untied States and her ability to fight a war and what does it mean to you?

These budget cuts, which will naturally bring about moral issues for our troops, were announced right after President Obama stated that the US would be stepping up its campaign in Syria and adding that it would be a long battle indeed! Yet, 40,000 troops will be cut.

This doesn’t make sense to me and it didn’t make sense to Alaskan Republican Senator Dan Sullivan either and he stated as much. There are valid concerns of Russian hostility in the Arctic and military assets are shifting to the Asia-Pacific. Budget cuts downsizing forces in Alaska “make no strategic sense,” said Sullivan.

If this war is going to be a long one, and most agree it will, why would cuts be made to our troops in the first place? You know, the ones actually protecting America.

Defense cuts are sparking real doubts with both our citizens and our troops. With moral on a seemingly ever-downward spin of late and upcoming military personnel ‘lay-offs’ many ponder whether America will be in a position to defend itself against war, and rightfully so.

According to the Heritage Foundation the US military, under the Obama Administration, is now only ‘marginally able’ to defend her because of how depleted the military has become. We have the lowest troop levels since World War II.

Cutting 40,000 troops to already depleted ranks is an error during time of war, and make no mistake, we are in a time of war. This cut is wrong for America and it is wrong for her citizens who should not have to live in fear whether they will be protected from outside, or inside threats.

STATS: Mainstream Media Devotes FIVE TIMES More Time To Confederate Flag Flap Than To ISIS Threat

July 7, 2015

Tomfernandez28’s Blog: H/T Brittius

What’s more important, The Dukes Of Hazzard or US Citizens joining ISIS?

BY STEVE WATSON

Analysis by the Media Research Center shows that the three big US news networks devoted at least twice as much air time during their main evening shows to outrage over the Confederate Flag than they did to the news that several American citizens have recently been recruited by the Islamic State terror group.

The stats for June show that ABC was the biggest offender, devoting FOUR TIMES more air time to some Americans taking offense to the Confederate flag, in the wake of the Charleston shooting.

In total, in the month of June, the evening news shows of ABC, CBS and NBC covered the ISIS threat for only 17 minutes, 35 seconds, while a whopping 37 minutes and 18 seconds was scheduled for the ‘racist’ flag issue.

The Media Research Center also notes that because the Confederate flag debate didn’t begin until June 19, yet ISIS recruitment has been ongoing for the whole month, the flag ‘debate’ actually received FIVE TIMES more coverage (186 seconds per day vs 35 seconds per day).

The flag issue was dragged on and on and hyped by the networks, as companies like Walmart, Amazon, Apple, EBay and Google all vowed to pull products with any links to Confederate flags, because they were deemed to be threatening and offensive.

Meanwhile, throughout June, there were at least six reported cases of American citizens joining ISIS, and several intelligence agency alerts and warnings regarding the growing influence of ISIS inside America.

It is believed that the FBI have made at least 30 arrests on US soil this year of ISIS linked or influenced individuals.

Despite the elevated threat, The Obama administration last week blocked attempts by its Middle East allies to assist Kurds fighting Islamic State jihadists in Iraq.

High level officials from Gulf and other states have charged that Obama will not listen to pleas to arm Kurds, which is ironic given that so called “moderate rebels” were openly armed in Libya and Syria, leading directly to the rise of ISIS and it’s stockpiles of weaponry.

But wait… what about how frightening and offensive THIS is:

BREAKING – Watch as Obama Declares We Can Defeat ISIS With “Better Ideas.” WOW…Really Obama?

July 6, 2015

I think my friend over at Cry and Howl got this one right. If you haven’t checked out his site yet, you should! 

Cry and Howl: WOW! Obama actually thinks he can out-smart ISIS. This is one sick s.o.b. ISIS is beheading by the hundreds, burning, raping, forcing children to execute hundreds of people, pillaging, moving across the Middle East and Obama thinks that “better ideas” will win the day? As long as Barack is president we won’t be at war with Islam … but Islam will always be at war with us and getting them jobs and “better ideas” ain’t gonna change their minds. Death, destruction, fear, rape, maiming, intimidation and every ungodly thing you can think of is Islam.

Yet, here’s Barack Obama, the “commander-in-chief” telling us how to defeat ISIS …

Via: Real Clear Politics

“We’ll constantly reaffirm through words and deeds that we will never be at war with Islam,” President Obama said Monday afternoon. “We are fighting terrorists who distort islam and its victims are mostly Muslims.”

“This challenge of countering violent extremism is not simply a military effort,” the president said. “Ideologies are not defeated with guns but better ideas and more attracting and more compelling vision.”

Well damn Barack, maybe you could have a sit-down with some of the ISIS folks and discuss this stuff. I’m sure they’ll see you’re so smart that they’ll give up all the crap they’ve been doing and apply for jobs. I’ll bet you can find places for them at the DHS, IRS, FDA, CIA, FBI … I’m sure they’ll be vital to the security of America.

For sure we confirm that we are not at war with Islam with deeds.

ISIS is Obama’s army and there isn’t anyway he will facilitate their demise.

More Gays Thrown Off Buildings In Iraq

July 1, 2015

The Muslim Issue:

Thrown to their deaths by ISIS barbarians for ‘being gay’

•  The four blindfolded victim had their hands bound behind their backs 
•  Militants are shown being thrown off the top building to their deaths
•  The atrocities was carried out in the Iraqi province of Fallujah

By Tom Wyke for MailOnline

Published: 18:09, 1 July 2015

Known for their barbaric punishments and repressive control over the locals, ISIS have released photographs of militants hurling four men, accused of homosexuality, off the top of a building in Iraq.

The jihadi group has previously carried out the sickening punishment in their de-facto capital, Raqqa, in Syria. Now the inhumane death sentence has been used in the Iraqi province of Fallujah.

ISIS’s latest propaganda images come after a family of 12 British nationals, including two grandparents are feared to have traveled to Syria.

The final moment before the victims, hands bound behind their back and blindfold covering their eyes, were dropped over the edge of the building

Several ISIS photographers were used to capture the horrendous propaganda images, reinforcing the group’s horrific reputation for violence

With their arms bound tightly behind their backs and their eyes fully covered with a makeshift blindfold, each victim is shown being led to the edge of the tall building.

At the command of a senior ISIS officer, the two militants appear to grab their victim around his wait and hoist him to the edge of the rooftop.

All four victims are then dropped from the lofty height to their deaths. Several photographers appear to have been used by ISIS’s media team in order to capture the victims on the roof and on the ground.

The gruesome propaganda photos appear to be an attempt by the depraved militant group to reinforce its rule of fear.

All four victims had their hands and feet bound together, preventing them from escaping their death

All four victims were found guilty of homosexuality at a Islamic court, according to ISIS’s radical interpretation of Sharia’h law

The final photo, too graphic for publication, showed the impact of the head injuries suffered by each of the victims.

Unusually for an ISIS public execution, no local civilians or ISIS militants appear to have come out and watched the men’s death.

ISIS’s propaganda photos are normally filled with people watching the punishment.

The extremist group have become known for their tough punishments, with theft punished by the amputation of a hand and the consummation of wine punished by a flogging.

Earlier this week, Syrian activists claimed that two women were executed for ‘witchcraft and sorcery’.

PRO-ISIS Hackers Threaten United States, Europe, And Australia With ‘Electronic War’

May 13, 2015

Tomfernandez28’s Blog: H/T AceWorldNews

by tomfernandez28

A hacker group claiming Islamic State affiliation has released a video threatening “electronic war” against the US, Europe, and Australia. They say they’ve already hacked sites belonging to “American leadership,” an Australian airport, and “others.”

The three-minute video, titled ‘Message to America,’ was uploaded by a group calling itself the ‘Islamic State’s Defenders in the Internet.’

The footage, accompanied by English subtitles, shows a hooded and anonymous figure speaking in a masked voice in Arabic.

The figure directs the video at the US and Europe, stating that an electronic war is coming. He warns that the group will carry out cyber attacks, claiming it is already monitoring the communications of residents in both locations.

The video goes on to state that websites belonging to American leadership and an Australian airport have been hacked, among other sites.

However, the group did not provide evidence of the hacking, or the names of any US officials.

The footage also reminds of previous internet security breaches, such as the Cyber Caliphate’s hack of the US Central Command’s (CENTCOM) Twitter and YouTube accounts in January.

But despite claiming to be aligned with the Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL), it remains unclear whether the ‘Islamic State’s Defenders in the Internet’ is actually supported by the militant group, as it was not released by one of its official media outlets.

The video comes just one month after US President Barack Obama signed an executive order allowing to sanction suspected cyber-criminals abroad with financial and travel restrictions.

OOPS! ISIS Poster Boy Accidentally Married FBI Spy, Here’s What She Learned

(Screenshot Credit, Mad World News)

February 18, 2015

Mad World News:

As Mad World News has previously reported, German rapper Denis Cuspert, also known as “Deso Dogg,” has enlisted in ISIS and now goes by the name of Abu Talha al-Amani. Though we thought that would be the last we heard of the rapper, we were very wrong. Recent reports have disclosed that the ISIS poster boy married in Syria, but unbeknownst to him, she was a FBI spy.

The woman married Abu Talha al-Amani to secretly obtain information on ISIS. According toFox News Insider, German and American intelligence sources confirmed that she transmitted critical information to the FBI, including details of top-secret ISIS operations. For her protection, the woman remains unidentified.

Not only did she successfully obtain information on the rapper, but she was able to obtain information on the Islamic State that wasn’t previously known. She was regularly in contact with her handlers, and how she transmitted the information still remains unclear. According toFox News, when the spy was informed by her handlers that she was in danger, she immediately slipped in to Turkey where she was arrested and handed over to the United States.

“We were already a long time in the bedrooms of the terrorists,” explained a security official. It was proven easy for the woman to become a love interest of Abu Talha al-Amani since he was an avid womanizer. The day they were wedded still remains unclear.

It is believed that the FBI agent’s mission coincided with the announcement by the United States informing that Cuspert was labelled as a “global terrorist.”

“Denis Cuspert stands in the focus of security circles because of his essential role for Islamic State,” a German law enforcement official told Fox News, “He is propagandist of IS.”

‘We Can’t Kill Our Way Out’ Of A War With ISIS: State Dept Says More Jobs Will Fix It

State Department Spokesperson Marie Harf

February 17, 2015

By Lorra B.

The U.S. cannot “kill our way out,” said Marie Harf. Harf, a State Department spokesperson, was referring to the war on ISIS. Instead, her solution is to create jobs which, in turn, will put the brakes on the terrorist Islamic group.

“We’re killing a lot of them and we’re going to keep killing more of them, so are the Egyptians, so are the Jordanians,” stated Harf. “They’re in this fight with us. But we cannot win this war by killing them; we cannot kill our way out of this war. We need, in the longer term, medium and longer term, to go after the root causes that lead people to join these groups, whether it’s lack of opportunity for jobs.”

Harf went on to say that, according to Fox News, “We can work with countries around the world to help improve their governance. We can help them build their economies, so they can have job opportunities for these people.” (If she hasn’t noticed, we haven’t been able to create enough jobs in our own country.)

Harf’s position may be a bit flawed, however. To suggest that poverty can and will lead to one’s loss of value, integrity or plain good sense and that it could then lead them down a path such as becoming an ISIS terrorist seems absurd. 

“This is an insult to all the people in the world who are actually poor and are not blowing people up and not targeting Christians,” stated Laura Ingraham of Fox News. “This is a religious war. The rest of the world is waking up to this and there’s one person…who doesn’t get this, and it’s the President of the United States.”

If one were so inclined to do a little research they would find that a lot of the ISIS recruitment’s came from upper and middle class families. These new ISIS members also had jobs with opportunities for advancement.

To say, Marie Harf, all that needs to be done is give those around the world who are poor a job opportunity and that it will then lead to the cessation of ISIS seems a bit naive, don’t you think?
