A recipe for disaster: British intelligence hacks al Qaeda website

Britain’s MI6 and their Communications Headquarters hacked into Al Qaeda’s online magazine “Inspire” replacing bomb-making instructions with cupcake recipes.

We’ve discovered that the real reason nanny state nags like NYC Mayor Bloomberg and First Mama Michelle Obama are obsessed with our diets lately is concern for national security. There’s a good chance that Al Qaeda may have shifted their focus from shoes and underwear to death by cupcakes.

Make cupcakes, not war!

Fox News has the ingredients of a very odd story:

British intelligence agency MI6 and Britain’s Government Communications Headquarters cooked up a cyberattack and hacked into terror group Al Qaeda’s online magazine “Inspire” — replacing bomb-making instructions with cupcake recipes, according to the Daily Telegraph.

When followers of Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula tried to download the 67-page instructions for how to “Make a bomb in the Kitchen of Your Mom” by “The AQ Chef,” the terrorists were instead greeted with a web page of recipes for “The Best Cupcakes in America” published by the “Ellen DeGeneres Show,” the newspaper reported.

Terrorists could then learn how to make a mojito cupcake made of white rum cake and draped in vanilla buttercream, instead of making a lethal pipe bomb using sugar.

The inducement to become a TSA crotch-grabber may have just increased exponentially. Besides getting to ogle backscatter X-rays of hot babes, they may now get to eat Ellen DeGeneres’s cupcakes.

We were dying to know if the modern-day Ayers and Dohrns figured out the scam:

The terrorist group was able to reissue the magazine two weeks after the cyberattack and has produced four other issues.

Damn it. Now the only way to get that mojito cupcake recipe is to watch reruns of Ellen DeGeneres. And we’re pretty sure the Supreme Court has already defined that as cruel and unusual punishment.
