Why does everything have to be ethnic related which happens to circulate around the arabs? Honestly i think IRC would be the last thing on their minds. Yeah the person(s) responsible for the attacks on DALnet may have an ip which indicates middle eastern descent but in all actuallity its probably a case of coincidence and that it is in fact some little kid who is bored and has nothing better to do other than to piss people off...which i might add is succeeding. If DALnet goes well there are plenty of other networks right? My guess is DALnet will probably continue to be one of the largest if not the largest network after these little attacks....course thats just my opinion.
