...I don't know really, it feels a bit like in the movies..(sorry for the analogy but I'm rushing..)...when there are 'undercover cops' involved for very good reason and very good reason why they don't want to act straight way and then other regular cops come barging in and blow their cover....

Agree with both of these^, plus with what Alex said in the other thread. If taking down ISIS twitter accounts was of significant benefit to the fight against terrorism then the government would have done this a long time ago. What if the intelligence services were monitoring them for some reason or another? We moan about the government's response but there's nothing Anonymous can do that the government couldn't have done long ago if they deemed it necessary and Anon themselves certainly won't be the ones to bring down ISIS. They should stay away from this IMO, it's way too serious a problem and they could easily screw something up for the official investigations.
