Terrorist groups being funded by pirated DVD sales?


Buying pirated DVDs helps terrorists. That's what Jeffrey Williams, a former a special agent with the United States Air Force Office of Special Investigations (OSI) stressed during a discussion of intellectual property rights protection. Read news article

According to him, there was now more evidence showing links between terrorist groups and counterfeit goods.

"Sounds incredible? So were the plans to fly commercial airliners into the Twin Towers in New York City that were seized in the Philippines in 1995 during an operation targeting Ramsey Yousef, until six years later,:" added Williams.


Wow. Did he really think that this would convince people to stop buying pirated DVDs? Yeesh.
