superapecommando writes “Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps hacked into 29 websites affiliated with US espionage networks, Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency reported on Sunday.
“The hacked websites acted against Iran’s national defense under the cover of human rights activities,” Fars reported. It did not reveal details of the attacks.
The Web has been used by Iranian opposition groups who contested the results of last year’s elections there to

organize demonstrations and share data about protests and arrests. The Revolutionary Guards is a military group that was founded after Iran’s 1979 revolution. The group includes conventional army, navy, air force, and intelligence units, as well as the Basij paramilitary force and various business units.”
