Mwuahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa!!!

Hackers prevented Al Qaeda from releasing a videotape to mark the seventh anniversary of 9/11. ... As-Sahab, Al Qaeda’s media unit, had indicated earlier this week that it would post such a videotape on September 11. As-Sahab had banner images on the internet showing a silhouetted head with a question mark and the words, “Wait 11 September”.

I think my decoder ring is on the fritz again. So you'll have to visit Jawa Report for a correct translation.
