The primary ‘Anonymous’ account behind the hacktivist collective’s “Operation ISIS” is claiming to have stopped a terrorist attack in Italy. They claim that they are also working to stop others.
As the Independent reports,
“In this month we are working in silence,” a now-deleted tweet that was posted on Christmas Day read. “We have already foiled one attack, Isis against Italy, we hope to block others.”
The account then posted another tweet the following day, threatening more attacks against supporters of the group.
“We’re digging your graves,” it said. “We have found you, we are in your accounts and phones, the nightmare is about to begin.
“Isis will implode.”
After the group deleted those tweets, they followed up with tweets confirming that they have stopped an attack.
Yes, 1 target has been stopped, a video will be released after the op is completed, no time to satisfy your curiosity, stay tuned.. #OpParis

Of course, the group was met with skepticism from all sides but they noted that no one needs to believe them in order for justice to be served.
We don’t need to be believed, the important thing is that no one dies. Non abbiamo bisogno di esser creduti, l’importante che nessuno muoia.

Since the attacks in Paris, Anonymous has made its vision of eviscerating ISIS devastatingly clear. Immediately after the attacks, tens of thousands of social media accounts with links to the terrorist regime were taken offline. But that was only the beginning.
Last month, the Free Thought Project reported on Anonymous’ move to publish a ‘Guide to Fighting ISIS Online.’
The release of this guide enlisted the talents of amateur hackers worldwide, and the results have been nothing short of phenomenal.
The guide was published in an IRC (internet relay chat) channel by a member of the hacker group. That member released the guide, along with the following message.
“Instead of sitting idle in the [chat] channel or lurking around and doing nothing, you can benefit greatly from the different tools and guides that have been provided to you,” he wrote. “Your contribution means a lot and we encourage you to partake in all of the Op’s activities if you can, the more the merrier.”
After it was revealed that ISIS is being aided and supported by Turkey, Anonymous launched a massive attack against the NATO country last week. In an extensive DDoS attack, the group took down some 40,000 Turkish servers.
While many have been critical of Anonymous’s digital attacks, claiming that they do not hurt ISIS, news of them stopping a physical attack is sure to rattle some cages.
As the fight against terror becomes a vigilante operation, one thing is certain, Anonymous is here to stay and a force to surely be reckoned with.

We need all the help that we can get, since the radical UN and EU elite liberals aren’t.
Oh yes. The great anon is our hero. No. Saviour. Anon our savior. All praise anon. Morons sitting in their mommies basement diddling themselves. They think thats normal. Freaks.
We are all anonymous, what have you done for or against CIASIS ?
ANY and ALL help should be WELCOME and THANKED. This is an IDEOLOGY we have to defeat.
Nice photo King Osama’s New Hat at the White House ?
All monotheism must be eradicated, all religions hold us back from uniting, communicating & living with each other, for each other.
The most disgusting and barbarous religion is statism.
Hope you do not forget that CIASIS is a CIA Op.. If not for the Anonymous participants safety.
Well done Anonymous. I know you are saving lives but wouldnt it be brilliant if Cameron and other banker puppets woke up one morning to find contents of their bank accounts redistributed amongst the people? I mean use your hacking capability to treat these greedy manipulative arseholes to a taste of austerity.
I think that would be just and fair I mean why not, why shouldn’t the likes of Cameron Osborne and IDS have a taster of what they’ve put the rest of us through? I say bring it on Anon!
Let’s take it one step further. Wouldn’t it be brilliant if we all woke up one morning to find that everyone’s tax records had been erased? Just saying.
That creates credibility for other stuff. Anonymous the good guy.
Anonymous is a CIA operation. If it were not it would not exist anymore.
Since when has anonymous become “terroist fighters”??? I thought anonymous existed to expose the people who fund terrorism? I sense a nasty joint-op that undermines the true mission 🙁 Oh well…
Thanks Anonymous, you guys rock.
