I can see the Globes headlines for tomorrow:

FANATIC RELIGIOUS HACKER FROM KFAR SAVAH ATTEMPTS CRACKING SECURITY EXPERT'S
WEB SITE IN A MAD ATTACK OF REVENGE
The web site, which belongs to COMSEC, a well known computer security
authority, was unharmed, due to its strong anti-hacker defences. Sources at
COMSEC have said that the attacker tried to access the server unathorized user
lists. The hacker was caught by a highly advanced security technique called
"mailing-list subscription". COMSEC experts speculate the attack is a futile
attempt at revenging Comsec's for its latest achievements in the areas of
hacker intrusion. This is the first time we see cooperation between right wing
extremists from germany, Israel, and Hizbullah terrorists, says the experts.
