Report: Internet is 'Key Tool' for Insurgents
A Reuters newswire article, via Yahoo! News, reports that:
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's al Qaeda in Iraq is among four main groups leading an insurgency against U.S.-led and Iraqi forces that owes its resilience partly to canny exploitation of the Internet, a report said on Wednesday.
The International Crisis Group, a non-profit organization that monitors conflicts, analyzed insurgent publications and Internet postings to argue that the rebel groups had steadily developed sophisticated communications and coherent leadership.
Zarqawi's militant group, viewed by the United States as its deadliest foe in Iraq but whose importance others dispute, "appears to be surprisingly well-structured," the ICG report said, citing a study of its communiques.
