Should there not be a rule against this?

Dear Brother Ace,
Jazak Allahu Khair for your thoughts, having said that let me tell you how I started studying Hinduism.
Due to intolerable attacks and abuse made by hindus in Muslim email groups, news groups and public forums, ** It became necessary to learn their faith and observe their psyche, ** and after many years of research and observation of these sick individuals .
This is what I have concluded.
1) These people are paid or are organized goons specifically targeting Muslim groups and forums. They can sit whole day on the computer and spam many groups and respond to any thing and everything at ease. From admitted connections, some of these people are actually financed by Jews.
2) They will not desist no matter how much your approach them in kindness or hatred.
3) ** They will return to square one very time you corner them, it is as if they have LOST their conscience** and it is more an employment , that they are fulfilling.
4) their employers can by any of the opposing faiths and due to the anonymity of their handles , it could even by a non hindu at the other side. (here it is vital to track their IP’s and keep folders on their activities for maybe one day when there is sufficient laws to go after these people it can be used against them and if you successfully make a few of them pay for their actions, the number of rascals involved in this may be reduced)
5) No matter ho many times you block their IP , they will come back using a different IP or handle and abuse you.
6) They will even hack your web sites or use technology to re-direct or block your sites or start sending you virus if they know your email accounts.
As such there are only a few alternatives in such matters.
1) you can totally ignore such posters , which in this medium is not very wise since, anyone in any age group can be reading, posting or monitoring the forum or email group, and IF you fail to respond, it means
a) you accept it
b) you have no answer for it
which to the knowledgeable is a wise action, but for the ignorant, it may misguide them .
** thus depending on the kind of abuse and the kind of questions raised one should respond appropriately, is the policy I adopt.** Like in the case of rviks or even anand, I normally do not respond at all, since he/she is more like a whisperer, who will spit something in-between posts or try to recycle the same point over and over again which when you respond to, can have NO reply or a reply which may claim, he/she was only testing you or it is a joke or you should not take it seriously .
2)in the second option, you take it to the limits, never stop, turn the table on them, the same way they are doing . This method will mean you have to practically waste a lot of time and make a lot of effort and eventually it will come to the showdown, where the culprit will start turning RED and start cursing you . This does not mean he/she will quit but realize he/she cannot get very far, before getting slammed on the wall and have their brains splattered.
** Either way , it can be disgusting and many may feel discomfort in witnessing them which is fundamentally the reason for their presence in the first place. **
On the other hand we need to learn, and going through this doldrums and cycles of abuse by the hindus, we may be able to train more individuals to respond and also see the need to research into other faiths so that we can quote their own works to expose their follies .
Mind you, the hinduUnity web site is the most notorious anti Islamic forum the hindus maintained and when they first started, they had three forums on it, one which talks about their own problems and how to abuse mulsims another which attacked Islam + Christianity and another maintaining archives on every kind of hate material that is against Islam.
After setting up this they went out to challenge the Muslims in their forum , to their surprise, within a week of discussions in their forum , they where so overwhelmed by just three Muslims and one dalit , they locked that forum for one month and after which they removed it completely, in addition they blocked out and deleted any post that was against their faith in their own hindu forums.
They had no option, since we started quoting their scriptures for which they were unable to respond or deny, they had to close it down period. After which they set up Muslim forum where only a hindu can post, eventually, that too got closed down because of complaints made to ezboard, since it violated ez board forum rules.
** One thing must be Clear, when you enter this realm, you are going to get the vilest, most filthiest languages and conduct. So it is not going to be easy for sane people to handle. **
These days they are busy setting up anti Islamic hate web sites and believe it or not, from their own postings, it is obvious they were partaking in the recent Gujarat violence directly in addition to financing them . ** So this is not just a cyber threat but a real physical one, which Muslims must take note for their own well being . **
Muslims are advised to Learn from these exchanges and are also advised to copy all information and use them as and when required.
Second Muslims are advised to monitor them, they are harmful to society and MUST be monitored.
Was salaam
Ibrahim
5: 104 When it is said to them: "Come to what Allah hath revealed; come to the Apostle": they say: "Enough for us are the ways we found our fathers following." What! even though their fathers were void of knowledge and guidance?
105 O ye who believe! guard your own souls: if ye follow (right) guidance no hurt can come to you from those who stray. The goal of you all is to Allah: it is He that will show you the truth of all that ye do.
