Me too. I emailed Sean straight away....I had just read the latest on those kids in St. Louis and was nearly physically ill and stumbled on our site. What a mess! Thanks for fixing it ASAP.

If you think that your question is dumb, imagine how totally stupid you will look if you don't ask it.

I saw them too and they weren't nice.  When I searched on the name they gave, several dozen sites that they'd hacked showed up.  There is also one sight with their name only . . . . it's clearly a mid-east site with lotsa garbage on it.

Glad you guys were so on the ball and took that stuff down quickly.

Geez, am I glad I missed it.  My computer's been off line all weekend--my DSL jack went bad.  Wiring went bad, doesn't make sense to me...that's telephone technician gobblety gook that I just don't understand! :D  Here I was hoping to catch up on all the news and pics and NO PICS!!  Wow, I so love being here!  Thanks Sean and Jerry and all you wonderful pond people! o(:-)

I'm sorry Jerry & Sean. You guys have been through a lot for this forum, and it's despicable what those criminals did. I hope they get caught & prosecuted.

Safe?  we hope so, but when things like sept 11th happen and presidents getting assasinated, anything can happen.
We are lucky to have a group like this and can enjoy each other and our endeavours! o(:-)

I would not assume "Middle Eastern" in that case.  There are plenty of people elsewhere in the world who are opposed to Israel's actions.  How do you know they were Israeli children?

Anti-Israel does not equal "Middle Eastern" or even "Muslim."
My pond is a turtle pond!

2006: ~135 gallons of water in a 150 gallon stock tank.
2012: ~250 gallons in a 330 gallon stock tank
2013: ~40 gallon in-ground wading pool for my box turtle

One RES, and a passel of gambusias.

The 50s were pretty good girl. Mistakes? Sure.  No we don't know if it was from the Middle East.  At the very least the perps made it look that way.  You asked, "How do we know they were Israeli children.  How do we know we really landed on the moon? How do we know we didn't attack ourselves on 911?  You can find conspiracy theorists everywhere.
Besides your caveats, the animation as well as the photos had clear intent even if the kids were from Timbukto.  Who ever did it was evil, pure evil!

My philosopy is this.  if a guy punches me in the nose everytime i see him, I will be ready when i see him coming toward me.  it's called "Post-Judice" not prejudice!
This belongs in Chit Chat anyway

PS: The FBI has been in touch and what they have to say makes me pretty confident it was from the the Middle East.  We were not the only ones hacked.
