#1 That's rather unnerving to see yet an another western/kufr achievement (if only something as futile as online vid games) be piggybacked and spoiled by those rustics. Still, I really, really doubt someone could ever get any sort of meaningful training from such material; I could perhaps understand a dedicaced player gaining notion of tactics with team shooting game like Counterstrike, but even that wouldn't amount to much without putting it in real-life training, so the idea of "online rehearsal" seems pretty far fetched.

#2 It can be a psychological benefit to go through the mental exercise of going though the process of doing something. If you practice a procedure enough times, even if it is only a rough approximation, it can make doing it in real life easier.

#4 If you also check out the link at the bottom of the page, it takes you to a article on the Australian.
Virtual TerroristThree things caught my eye.

1. These knuckleheads actually blew up virtual buildings up from within the game.This is definately psychological in nature.

2. A ready recruitment tool for these terrorist

3. The terrorist can use WOW and SL as a means of laundering money by transfering from real to Linden back to real dollars to other members.

A pox on the nuts.

#5 Or, more likely, some gamers got bored with the whole Second Life world and decided to have a little "Duke Nukem" style fun with the "residents". It's a video game, people.
