Hackers Shut Down Saudi Education Ministry Website, Post Nasrallah Photo
2010-11-02
The Saudi education ministry's website was shut down on Monday after hackers posted a picture of Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and later of a youth with a syringe.
This sounds like a dry run. See the related article on Hezbollah's exercise to simulate knocking over the govt...
Hackers calling themselves the "True Promise Team" posted Nasrallah's picture and blasted Saudi treatment of the kingdom's minority Shiites in the first hack, according to a cached version of the page published on the Sabq.org news website.

They signed it with the name of Ali al-Sistani, Iraq's top Shiite holy man.
But it wasn't his picture they put up...
Soddy Arabia is predominantly Sunni Mohammedan.

The first page was subsequently replaced by another hack, carrying a photo of a syringe-wielding young man or woman, the cache of which could be accessed through Google. That page appeared to give the pseudonyms of several hackers.
