Per the message sent by Mohammad Ozair Rasheed:

If you believe this story...  for example that nobody uses non-trivial
passwords...  I cannot comment further, but suffice it to say that I do
not believe that particular analysis.

[Ozair] I did not believe the story about steganography, but the kind of
enthusiasm that it gave the group made me remember it. And this article
was just for the sharing :).

I agree that these may be horrendous treatment, but they are not
'terrorist' because they are carried out by an identifiable government
against targetted people.  That's just old fashioned opression and
abuse, not terrorism.

As an aside, the bible records many other instances of 'holy wars' as
does the Koran.  Today most of us we presume that these are lessons to
help us understand the need for peaceful settlement of differences, but
clearly there is historical evidence for lots of abuses by militaries of
all sorts. 

[Ozair] :) Are you changing the definition of terrorist and terrorism? 

[Ozair] I am not an expert on both Quran and Bible in this context and
would thereby decline to comment on this until I have a fairly good
understanding of them in this context.
