Them Crazy Israelis are at it again!

So, after a few of its citizens get their credit card details stolen, Israel flex's its muscles and threatens the suspected hacker (its suspected to be a 19 year old living in Mexico)

Such cyber-attacks are "a breach of sovereignty comparable to a terrorist operation, and must be treated as such", Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon has said.
"Israel has active capabilities for striking at those who are trying to harm it, and no agency or hacker will be immune from retaliatory action,"



full listing;

Israel has said it will respond to cyber-attacks in the same way it responds to violent "terrorist" acts after the credit card details of thousands of its citizens were published online.

A hacker named OxOmar claiming to be Saudi said on Thursday he had leaked the private information.

Credit card companies say at least 6,000 valid cards have been exposed.

Reports say OxOmar may be a 19-year-old living in Mexico.

Such cyber-attacks are "a breach of sovereignty comparable to a terrorist operation, and must be treated as such", Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon has said.

"Israel has active capabilities for striking at those who are trying to harm it, and no agency or hacker will be immune from retaliatory action," he added, without giving further details.

An aide to Mr Ayalon said Israel was aware of the report OxOmar may be in Mexico, but had not yet requested help from the Mexican authorities, Reuters news agency reports.

You gotta love them crazy Israelis lol, pity they didnt run our country! Especially when the IMF was in town!

I think the Mexican drug gangs have probably got more weapons than the Israelis, so it should be interesting.

OP you state a few when in fact its 6000 credit cards,Where the Israeli response might be a bit OTT I hope they catch the little mexican runt,You think he would have better things to be doing with his time ,like exposing his own country's corrupt police and politicians.Not to mention the country's 35,000 people killed last year in its drug wars.Man has his priorities all wrong.

next weeks news 19 yr old mexican murdered by irish passport holders. hypocrits:rolleyes:

My name is URL

Sounds like a pretty run-of-the-mill response to me. They're hardly going to beg the hacker to stop.

The Kerry Group's got a few people in Mexico, so they better watch their backs if that happens.

Oops....

Missing the word thousand in the OP... My bad!

Scruffles

they have probably just glanced at his chain of VPN or proxies addresses, no one capable of playing credit card fisticuffs with a country woud be stupid enough to do it without any.
serious back tracing,do that israelis.

Too many countries/people these days seem to be confusing criminal (and legal) activities with terrorism.

Photography in a public place, quote prevention of terrorism law.
Journalists in Ethiopia doing their job, facing 11 years for terrorism.
UK MOD listing investigative journos on the terror watch list.

But, right-wing planting bomb at Martin Luther King parade, racism, not terrorism.
Assassination as a national policy, not terrorism.

and so on ad nauseam.

The T-word seems to be losing it's proper meaning.

When the "good guys" fund terrorists who carry out atrocities they call it counter terrorism.

War is peace ect...

This is a good move by Israel. I don't expect Israel to take this issue lightly.

Yes, but that Israeli sense of entitlement is truly a formidable weapon.

Again the double standards of that rogue state. Steel our passports... no problem. Someone steals their credit cards... terrorism.

I wouldn't be surprised by what their politicians say or do. They sound like a bunch of criminals. Former president done for rape, another done for embezzlement and another for fraud etc etc.

And don't forget the ruskies liked to use our passports to and also it wasn't so long ago when our taoiseach was selling them to the dirty arabs:) Highest bidder of course secured.

Steal our passports and then carry out state sponcered assasination with them.. great bunch of lads.

I might not agree with everything the Israelis do (I don't) but most people know that if you mess with them or break their laws, they are not just going to lie down and take it.

Anyone that messes with them, has to expect some reaction more often than not!

They'll be Palestinian settlers on this occasion, kill two birds with one stone.

Meh, if someone were to steal my info and post it online I can't say I'd be too displeased if the little rascal was turned into a smoking hole in the ground :cool:

Dangerous situation for the Mexican chap to be in. The Israelis have free reign to 'flex their muscles' worldwide without any fear of repercussions, the USA will see to that.

Hacker attacks these days could be a lot worse then just credit card fraud. You could bring down the systems at airports, our power and phone net works, you could interfere with the safety systems at chemical or nuclear plants and many more.

So I agree with the "Israelites", besides IMHO the world would be a better place without hackers and the Kunts who keep making computer viruses. So nuke mexico and we at least get one of them.

That always confuses me. Wtf is the national nuclear system doing connected to the internet? Surely, if for some reason, you needed the internet in a nuclear bunker, it'd be safer to run two lines of copper in and just not network the military system into the civilian?~
