    LILLE, France, July 10 (AFP) - A 17-year-old French hacker who defaced websites in Australia, Britain, and the United States with political messages has been arrested in Paris and ordered to stay away from the Internet while on parole, police said.

    The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons but who was known on the web under the nickname DKD, plastered home pages with messages "for example in favour of the Palestinians or against the US government," a police chief for the northern city of Lille, Eric Voulleminot, told AFP.

    OMG!!! That's terrible!!!!

    Maybe we should have Bush lie to the American people, telling us all that this kid has direct links to Al Qaeda and tried to buy uranium from Niger, thus giving the US good reason to invade France.

    Well, the Bush administration has exactly the same number of valid reasons to invade France as they did to invade Iraq.

    Exactly zero.

    Might as well attack any other country who disagreed with Dubya's desire to get revenge on Saddam because he tried to kill Dubya's daddy.

    Hopefully using large amounts of strychnine - it makes for a painful suicide.

    Happy Bastille Day, everyone! I'll be celebrating with a fine French vin blanc.

    As for the hacker kid, who cares? Boys will boys all over the world. At least this kid is developing useful job skills and not out snorting coke and driving drunk while going AWOL from the military.
