My family is Egyptian and I used to post on an Egyptian board, similar to this one, actually. There were occasional fundamentalists who liked to post stupid shit, and had their avatars showing them posing with AK 47s and stuff. I haven't seen "anything" here like what I saw on that board.

And if so, do you think that anything that's been posted on this forum or the political forum is aiding in any way? or am I being a silly?

You are being silly!

Unless the terrorists wants to hear about breastfeeding, SAHM vs WOHM, MIL issues..... Wait, that's it! They're using our DCUM offensive and defensive techniques. They're probably aided by CL.

OP, there could be some material providing leads for phishing or social engineering, but you can say that about any resource. I realize that being paranoid doesn't mean you're not being watched, but still... Chances of that are pretty low. You'll be just fine.

Lots of men children living in their mom's basements seem to post and be terrorists. You could be right

The terrorists are posting from inside your house (cue, scary music). Who do you think makes your babies wake up a 4 am screaming? Just wait to see what they make your kids do when they become teenagers.

You got that right, sister!! Better watch that food and cooking forum as well--suspicious ingredient suggestions within some of those posts!

I knew there was a reason my cookie exchange didn't work. I'm blaming North Korea.

How do we know that you are not a terrorist, OP?

Point being, OP, that this is a forum for moms and dads. Granted, some posters are fairly aggressive, and there are a few that are actually vicious. I'm getting a visual right now of terrorists sobbing wildly as they read the cruel responses - handiwork of DCUM's finest - to their posts. But I jest.

Yes, I do believe a few are posting - one in particular in the Political forum.
By “aiding,” what do you mean?

By "aiding" I mean that there are people on DCUM that seem to have quite a bit of esoteric information on matters related to US defense. I don't hang out on the political forum but i have to think that some of this information that I am referring to is on there...somewhere....

OP, isn't it quite early in the day to be drinking???
