Iranian hackers 'bring down Mossad web site'
2009-01-08
A group of Iranian hackers says they have managed to bring down the Israeli secret service's web site to voice solidarity with Gazans.

Ashiyaneh, a group of Iranian hackers announced they had carried out the cyber attack against Mossad's web site to protest the ongoing Israeli onslaught on the Gaza Strip, Fars news agency reported on Wednesday.

"The Zionist Regime considers the merciless killing of the defenseless people in Gaza as its right and assumes that the world people will keep silent about it," the hacker group announced in a statement.

The head of the group has said the fact Mossad's web site has been hacked despite high security measures makes the spy agency a laughing stock.

It is more than two hours that the web site is down and the Israeli intelligence service has failed to resume the function of the Web site, the report added.

Hahaha! The Juice are sooo stupid. Unless, of course, the script kiddies happened to stumble into a Mossad honeypot.
