"Web Hate Sites Luring Sickos, Wackos, Weirdoes"
NY Daily News
It's no surprise to learn that the Internet is full of weirdoes, but
hate groups are increasingly flocking to the Web, reports The (N.Y.) Daily
News. The Simon Wiesenthal Center released a report this week listing
4,500 terror-related and anti-Semitic sites. Al Qaida, Hamas and other
terrorist groups use the Internet as an important propaganda tool, it
says. On one site, masked figures point guns at images of the collapsing
World Trade Center towers and laugh. On another site, visitors can manage
Nazi concentration camps or let players direct suicide bombers, shoot
black people or buy crack dens. "We want people to realize the Internet is
not just a tool of information, but also a tool of disinformation," said
Mark Weitzman, director of the center's Task Force Against Hate. (EGS)
