The world's most infamous online jihadist has just pled guilty in a U.K. court to charges of inciting terror and murder, according to the Counterterrorism Blog. Younis Tsouli -- a.k.a. "Irhabi 007" -- "won a notorious reputation for himself as arguably the 'godfather' of Al-Qaida activity on the Internet," Evan Kohlman writes. "Using only his computer and a web connection, Tsouli established himself as a webmaster and key propagandist for Al-Qaida's network in Iraq -- even serving as a communications 'operator' to secretly connect homegrown would-be suicide bombers arriving in Syria with official jihadi recruiters working for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi... Tsouli is expected to receive his sentence back in court later this week on Thursday or Friday.
