Anonymous Engaged Massive Cyber-Attack To Bring-down Vatican Website
Hacker collective group
Anonymous take-down the official site of
Vatican. In the last Wednesday evening Vatican faced massive denial of service of attack and
www.vatican.va, was inaccessible for much of Wednesday afternoon and evening. According to Anonymous the motive of this cyber attack is to protest everything from Catholic doctrine to the sexual abuse of children. The hacker group said -
"This attack is not against the Christian religion or the faithful around the world but against the corrupt Roman Apostolic Church," said the statement, posted on the Italian-language version of the Anonymous website.
"Anonymous decided today to besiege your site in response to the doctrine, to the liturgies, to the absurd and anachronistic concepts that your for-profit organization spreads around the world," the hackers said in a statement. Last year also Anonymous tried to engage cyber-attack into the Vatican but failed. The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, confirmed the attack but declined to comment on its possible source. He said he didn't know how long it would take the Vatican's technicians to bring the site back up.
Similarly last year Anonymous has declared
Operation Brotherhood and Threatens to "Destroy The Muslim Brotherhood". According to the official you tube video release Anon declared that to hack Muslim Brotherhood websites, starting with the Arabic Ikhwanonline.com. But
#OpBrotherhood caused serious damage for Anonymous while a hacker named a Pakistani Hacker called
Tha Disastar has
Hacked and defaced the official website of AnonyOPS. The DDoS specilist has also faced massive denial of service attack on the anonyops.com. In the message hacker said that
"Anonymous should stay in limits,and must not go out of there limits to others peoples religion". That time also Anonymous clarified that the attack was not to hit the Muslim religion but to those grand-masters who vows to follow all orders of the Murshid, without hesitation such as terrorism and so on. But the Muslims took that in a conservative way and as a result Anon faced massive criticism as well ass cyber attack. Who knows may be this attack against Vatican may also create the same scenario for the Hacktivist.

Vatican Faced Cyber-Attack Again, Anonymous Hacked Into The Vatican Radio system
Vatican again faced cyber attack, and as expected again it was
Anonymous who was behind the attack. This time the target was
Vatican Radio. Last week the official website of
Vatican faced massive denial of service attack and
www.vatican.va, was inaccessible for much of Wednesday afternoon and evening. Anonymous said the incursion into the Vatican Radio system was justified by the fact that the radio's powerful transmitters sited in the countryside outside Rome constituted a health risk to people living in the vicinity.
"Unfortunately it is a well-known fact that you use transmitters with a transmission capacity that greatly exceeds the legal limits, and it is also a sad fact that exposure to electromagnetic waves of high intensity is connected to the development of serious neoplastic diseases such as leukemia and cancer," the group said in a message posted on pastebin.
"Anonymous cannot allow these crimes to continue unpunished and we remind you that you are 'guests' on Italian soil," the statement said.
"We would like to see tangible signs that you are showing an interest in these matters, perhaps by modifying the location and the power of some of your transmission equipment."

Hacktivist Group Anonymous Targeted Pope in Mexico
After
Vatican now
Anonymous targeted the Mexico Pope. The hacker group in Mexico crashed at least two of the websites for
Pope Benedict XVI’s upcoming visit to Mexico on Thursday, claiming the papal visit is a political move to support the conservative National Action party.
The site contained information on the pope’s planned activities starting Friday in the north-central state of Guanajuato, which is governed by President Felipe Calderon’s National Action Party, or PAN. The Anonymous IberoAmerica website, which has been a channel of communication for such hacker “ops” in the past, said the site crashes were the result of Anonymous operations with names such “Pharisee” and “freeloader.”
Anonymous Mexico said in a video posted on social media sites that the pope’s visit will cost Mexicans money that could be better spent on the poor, and is meant to support the PAN in the July 1 presidential election. PAN candidate Josefina Vazquez Mota is trailing front-runner Enrique Pena Nieto of the Institutional Revolutionary Party by at least 10 percentage points in most polls on the race. The official campaign season starts at the end of this month. The pope’s “visit comes precisely at the start of the electoral campaigns,” said the faceless Anonymous figure in the video. “The PAN will take this as a political weapon to win the votes of millions of Catholics in Mexico.”
Earlier this month Anonymous take responsibility of engaging cyber attack on
Vatican official website &
Vatican Radio System.
The hacker group said - "This attack is not against the Christian religion or the faithful around the world but against the corrupt Roman Apostolic Church," said the statement, posted on the Italian-language version of the Anonymous website.
