Nice visual representation trying to emphasize on the U.S hosting companies connection :"In the following, we examine the Hizballah domains in light of which companies have provided DNS service. A domain's whois record specifies DNS servers, and the DNS servers tell browsers what IP address/server is currently hosting the domain. This is a mission critical service without which the domains in question would be unreachable. Despite the fact that Hizballah is a designated Terrorist entity in the United States, American companies have been, and continue to be the primary providers of service to Hizballah. We now know of 40 domains of Hizballah, based largely on a list provided by Hassan Nasrollah on a previous incarnation of his own web site. Of those 40 domains, 23 are now or have been provided DNS services by Alabanza Inc. of Baltimore, Maryland. No other provider comes close. Alabanza's domain name registration business, Bulkregister, is Hizballah's registrar of choice. See our report regarding the registrars of Hizballah's domains."
Who knew Hezbollah are indeed the rocket scientistics they pretend to be? UAVs, night vision gear, SIGINT gear, or has rocket science became so "outsourceable" nowadays?
Cyberterrorism isn't dead, it's just been silently evolving under the umbrella provided by the mainstream media -- wrongly understanding the concept, and stereotyped speculations.
