Israeli hackers counter attack: posting private photos of anti-Israel hackers

I wonder how they found these OpIsrael participants in the first place. I assume they just went into an IRC channel dedicated to OpIsrael and struck up conversations with gullible people to try and get their personal information. I doubt these are the people responsible for the credit card and email leaks from several days ago.

> Israeli hackers broke into the computers of Anonymous members that attacked Israel

"attacked Israel"? I wasn't aware that Israel was a computer. Anyone know where this article's sources are?

Politics aside (fucking retards).

Looks like the attack was performed by getting the ips of users in the #opisrael chat room and trawling for vulnerable targets. Which means most of the outed users probably has nothing to do with the defacing of Israeli web sites. It's a much much easier attack than trying to go after them who was active in the initial attack who likely have slightly better security than random irc users.

"As of 2013, Israel had been condemned in 45 resolutions by United Nations Human Rights Council since its creation in 2006—the Council had resolved almost more resolutions condemning Israel than on the rest of the world combined."
