Hacked by U.S. Government Last Month, Al Qaeda's "Inspire" Was Up and Running Again Almost Immediately

Sickeningly enough, following its brief down time, the jihadi rag was back with a piece touting lone wolves and the devastating impact they can have:

On May 30, a new version, Issue 11, appeared. That issue portrayed the Boston Marathon bombing as vindication of Inspire’s message that “a single lone jihad operation can force America to stand on one foot and live in a terrified state, full of fear.”

And, in case you're wondering what makes the rag so compelling, the WaPo scribbler spells it out:

Inspire comprises first-person accounts of operations, exhortations to jihad and do-it-yourself advice for extremists. A second intelligence official said the publication is seen as a threat because it “has a specific readership — a following. People will look for it, as opposed to something randomly posted. Two, it is very user-friendly. Inspire uses pictures and step-by-step diagrams, and that’s a problem.”

No kidding. I'd say the bigger problem, though, is that it reaches such a wide audience of current and potential jihadis.
