He visto en la Fox que los Investigadores tienen en la mira a terroristas islámicos. Al parecer, en noviembre, se hizo un llamamiento a los musulmanes desde diversos foros y webs pro Al-Qaeda para comenzar una "Jihad forestal" en Australia, Europa, Rusia y los EE.UU. Se cita al terrorista Mustafa Setmariam Nasar, que insta a utilizar ácido sulfúrico o gasolina para iniciar el fuego. Fácil de hacer, de gran impacto, bajo riesgo de seguridad, y alta cobertura en los Medios.
Ojalá se estén sacando las cosas de madre y no se trate de una nueva modalidad terrorista.

Terrorism experts suspect Muslim extremists are watching closely, too — and taking note of the devastation.
While Australian authorities have revealed no evidence linking the wildfires to extremists, terrorism experts say the large death toll, the huge swath of destruction and the massive financial blow to the country are proving to Islamic terrorists that arson can be a highly effective — and simple — tool of holy war.
In November, an extremist Web site called on Muslims to launch a "forest jihad" in Australia, Europe, Russia and the United States. The posting, which quoted imprisoned Al Qaeda terrorist Mustafa Setmariam Nasar, said setting forest fires was legal under "eye-for-an-eye" Islamic law.
"Scholars have justified chopping down and burning the infidels' forests when they do the same to our lands," the posting read.
The author of the posting indicated that Nasar — also known as Abu Musab Al-Suri — was urging terrorists to use sulfuric acid or gasoline to start the fires.
"Forest fires track well with the latest discussion trends seen in the Al Qaeda forums — easy to do, big impact, low security risk, high media coverage," said Al Qaeda expert Jarret Brachman.
