A number of "hackers" have begun calling for and attacking both Arab
nation state networks and terrorist related sites.  If they begin to
meet with some success we can expect a significant response along the
lines of the attacks by pro-Palestinian actors during the
Israeli-Palestinian Cyber Conflict almost a year ago. 

As I sit here passing my 28th non-stop hour, the physical terrorism
aspect is more than enough to track and deal with.  The cyber component
is the last thing we need to deal with.  It is unfortunately something I
believe we will end up seeing, either in relation to the above or in
response to any possible future retaliatory actions by the US.
