Question: Is it ok for terrorists to use Twitter to recruit people?
 

What are your thoughts? Is this ok? Do you have a problem?

The Taliban has extended its propaganda efforts into the social media realm, sending its first tweet in English from the handle @alemarahweb.

The account started tweeting in Pashtun in December 19. Its roughly 750 tweets detail what the Guardian calls ?highly exaggerated reports? of strikes against the Taliban?s enemies. As of Thursday, some of these tweets have been written in English. Most of them are death tolls.

This matches the message that the Taliban has distributed through its spokesmen and other media, including the Internet. Despite declaring the Internet unholy and banning its use for millions of Afghan citizens in 2000, the Taliban has maintained a website since at least 2001.

When the Guardian pointed out the account this morning, it had just 224 followers. Now the tally is about 1,200 and rising fast. @alemarahweb itself, however, only follows 12 accounts, including a combat advisor to the Afghan Army, a charity that teaches carpet weaving and an educational children?s circus.

yes,is OK ,you was recruited ?

that's up to twitter to decide, their site, their rules.

Why not ...

Wasn`t mossad using twitter as well ?

http://twitter.com/JDLdotORG same thing.

Hey "SpermBozo", do you ever make a post dealing with the subject matter
that this board was actually created for?


Nope.

Its only OK if you're a Jew.

is what ok?

In the USA a terrorist is someone who homeschools or stockpiles food

I don't really believe in the whole Muslim terrorist thing myself, that's just propaganda to market wars to the people

what choice is there? certainly can't legislate twitter users.

If we can use it for porn...

If the Taliban have declared the internet as unholy, why assume a "Taliban website" or "Taliban Twitter account" is genuine and not the work of an intelligence agency.

Allah now approves of Twitter obviously! Duh!

Then everything is fine since that's most likely who created the account and is
making the postings on twitter.

I can't wait to get my passport stolen by Israel so they can travel to other
countries and commit murder in my name.

Which side do we support?
The "religion of peace" or the "religion of murderous identity thieves"?

With a billion Muslims in the world you'd think they'd create their own network. Hmmm, I wonder what 1% of them would buy for $1 each...

Its for a "better" cause so thats OK.

Just stop feeding into it and giving them attention, they're fucking irrelevant.

Media got you people so freaked out you probably think there's some arab guys in your little town ready to blow you up at any given moment.

Jihadists are allowed to drink alcohol, eat pork and have gay sex if that is necessary to protect their cover so I guess using the internet would be allowed as well.

You mean is it ok for CIA created terrorists to recruit future CIA terrorists on twitter? Then no.
Any other terrorists that purportedly exist can go for it.

What the fuck do you think? Of course it's stupid :)
