I don't think anyone is skeptical that fundamentalist muslims would try internet attacks, what I think people are skeptical of is bakri's claim that "There are millions of Muslims around the world involved in hacking the Pentagon and Israeli government sites".
I'm not skeptical that millions of starving Arabs living in caves or being slaughtered by their dictators are going to find computers, connect to the Net (outlawed by their leaders), and attack us. What I'm skeptical of is that this threat is remotely comparable to another AS7007 incident caused by some half-asleep NOC engineer in the US making a typo or other random clueless mistake.
