This is now being reported on various websites...

Haytham Faraj, one of the partners in Puckett and Faraj, posted this response to the hack on Facebook page:

Anonymous hacked into my business email account and stole over 3 gigs of email communications. Ironically, I am a supporter of Anonymous’ declared mission of exposing corruption, injustice, hypocrisy and governments acting in secret. I also supported Wikileaks. I volunteered to defend Bradley Manning and did a 30 minute interview on BBC TV about him. Anonymous will not find a smoking gun in the Haditha emails. In fact they will discover that which I stated all along. Wuterich did not shoot or kill women and children. He was entitled to a defense like everyone else in a free society. By putting my emails in the public sphere Anonymous did not violate my privacy. There is nothing in those emails about me. It violated the privacy rights of hundreds, perhaps thousands of other people who were entitled to their privacy by publishing their personal email and telephone information, to disclosing private and personal information that clients share with lawyers believing that the information will remain private and confidential. I am upset by Anonymous’ thoughtless acts.

Thanks, smooth. Interesting.

I was a little taken aback by the quote from Faraj on Gawker--not related to the SSgt Wuterich--regarding "war crimes" by Israelis...

The purpose of my project will be to collect sufficient competent evidence on each individual so as to be able to have a court of competent authority issue an arrest warrant for the participants in war crimes.... I already have several people: attorneys and IT experts who have committed to working on this. I eventually want to be able to raise sufficient funds to hire full time staffs and perhaps pay rewards to international bounty hunters who can grab Israelis who have warrants issued for them.

Major WTF. What would a "competent authority" be? Why just Israelis and not Palestinians?

He’s absolutely right about those turkeys violating the privacy rights of hundreds or thousands of people but I am very surprised he supports Wikileaks and Manning.

This is getting really weird. Defense team psy-ops?

For those that had a problem with it, I guess Chessani’s team, TMLC, is looking pretty good right now...
