Dismantling of websites recruiting fighters for Iraq

The Pentagon blundering its way in new war territory

Finally we can understand why the American government is not closing down websites on the internet that are recruiting foreign muslim fighters for Iraq. First reason: some of these websites have been created by the CIA itself or for example by the Saudi secret service. Second reason: the websites are used to gather intelligence and arrest people before they can do their dirty work in Iraq, Saudi Arabia or elsewhere. And third: when the CIA is closing or hacking jihadist recruitment websites, this is a covert operation on which the US parliament must be informed and the CIA doesn’t like that Congress knows what it’s doing. On the other hand, if the US army destroys a website, this is considered a normal act of war for which no permission is needed.
