The worst thing is that this kind of "hackings" are promoted by media
and people in Turkey. They have a race on zone-h. (More than 20 of
'Top 50' defeacers are Turks)

This kids just put a Turkish flag on sites and leave a 'scary'
nationalist message.

Nationalist 'hacking' groups are increasing and they (unfortunately)
improve themself.

Yes, it is happening everywhere, even in South America between
Chilean and Peruvian football fans:

So, even while these defacements are really nothing new, they
have escalated recently, and will probably continue to do so.

Hopefully, it will raise some amount of awareness to the issue
of PWI Syndrome: Poor Website Implementation. :-)
