Analyzer: Primed to Kill Since 6
Wired News Report
11:56am  1.Apr.98.PST

The Israeli teenager who cracked the Pentagon says he got his first
computer at age 6 and used to go on 15-hour search -and-destroy missions
against neo-Nazi, pedophile, and anti-Israeli Web sites.

"I would move around the Internet asking myself: 'Who should die today?'"
Ehud Tenenbaum, the 18-year-old known as Analyzer told Jerusalem's Yediot
Ahronot. "And by 'die,' I mean cut off from the Internet."

Other Analyzer nuggets from today's newspaper interview:

"I feel a sort of high from the attention and care surrounding me," says
the soon-to-be draftee who was celebrated at his local disco last week.
"But to do it all over again? It's hard to say, but I imagine I would not
go into the Pentagon site. When I went there, I just didn't know what I had
gotten into."

He's dyslexic (which would seem to explain the cryptic, immature Net
communiques of Analyzer and his hacker pals). "I can't read words which are
more complex than three or four letters ... but I have a very good memory."
With his computer impounded, Analyzer spends his evenings reading computer
books and playing chess alone.
