Its a sad and scary world when it comes to terrorism. Why cant we just get along. Life is to important for such hatred in the world.

Well, we can't just let terrorists spread terror all around the globe. We, as human beings, should still care for our fellowmen. We may not help directly to the cause but we can still do so by giving our sympathy to those who are in trouble.

how they tracked back the address to his real name, i'm curious, if ISIS is at least intelligent enough they should change address for every new "donation"

This, I think is somewhat trivial. As far as I know, no one can actually directly link an address to a real person unless that person advertises his address for whatever reason he/she has. How did they come up with the name of the kid?

If you research about the incident, then you will find out that it had hardly anything to do with the Bitcoins. Ali Shukri Amin was sentenced to 11-years in prison, for recruiting American citizens to fight for the ISIS. He had already helped one of his recruits (the 18-year old ethnic Iranian Reza Niknejad) to travel to Syria. Amin was caught before he could send more recruits to the ISIS territory.

Did a quick research on the matter, and I couldn't find hardly anything about bitcoin except for this article. Nice diversion of attention there. Well played.
