Military reacts to ISIS ‘hit list’: We don’t scare easily!

U.S. military personnel who were placed on an Islamic State “hit list” that included personal information and photographs aren’t all that concerned about the threat that was posted online.

They’re the U.S. military — and they don’t scare easy.

A group calling itself the “Islamic State Hacking Divisionreleased a list of military personnel and called for their murder.

“(W)e have decided to leak 100 addresses so that our brothers residing in America can deal with you,” the announcement said.

Those on the list remain unfazed.

“This is just a way they are trying to intimidate us — and it’s not going to work,” said one service member on the list, according to ABC News, which reported:

Another service member said it is not surprising that ISIS wants to hurt members of the U.S. military, though he was surprised that this group would be “brazen” enough to publish it.

A third service member called the publishing of the list “regrettable” but said he had no concerns for himself or his family.

They would not disclose what precautions they had taken in the wake of the online threat, though they said they were already being cautious.

“I wouldn’t say I’m scared,” said another “hit list” member. “It’s just part of this ‘new war’ against an enemy with a different, more developed capability than what we’ve faced in the past. We have to make the adjustments in order to continue to win the battles.”

The information on the list appears to have been compiled from publicly available information, and not from a data breach, a defense official told ABC News.

Those on the list agreed.

“In a world with computers, it’s easy to find information on anyone,” said one. “We have a footprint — the best we can do is to make that foot print not so deep in the sand.”
