Catholic website hacked with jihad message

Topics: War on Terror

"Seen as response to comments about new Crusades movie." From WND, via Dhimmi Watch:

The website of a Catholic civil rights group was hacked over the weekend, apparently by Islamic extremists.

William Donohue, president of the New York City-based Catholic League, said the breach began yesterday, one day after his comments about the controversial new Hollywood film on the Crusades, "The Kingdom of Heaven," were published in the New York Post.

The unknown hackers replaced the home page with one of their own, featuring a photo of a Palestinian holding a rock in each hand, facing down Israeli soldiers. It included epithets against President Bush and Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, called for freedom for "Palestine" and Iraq and sent greetings to Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein.

The site was restored this afternoon.

In the Post article, Donohue was quoted saying: "It is a matter of historical record that Muslim violence - in the form of a jihad - was responsible for Christians striking back, hence the Crusades. Yet in the film, it is the Christians who are the bad guys. This is on the order of doing a movie on the Warsaw Ghetto and blaming the Jews for all the violence."

Robert Spencer at Dhimmi Watch adds, "Indeed it is.." I add, what else would you expect from the a view seen through the eyes of the Hollywood left?
