On Monday after thousands of its citizens' credit card details were posted online by a hacker, an Israeli government official warned that it would hit back at the hackers with force.
Danny Ayalon, Israel's deputy foreign minister described the attack as "a breach of sovereignty comparable to a terrorist operation, and must be treated as such", adding, "Israel has active capabilities for striking at those who are trying to harm it, and no agency or hacker will be immune from retaliatory action."
Today a Twitter account belonging to Furyofanon posted its reaction to those threats, a list of addresses and logins for Israeli government systems.
