I would strongly advise against such actions.
European governments take a dim view of terrorist
activities and some countries such as Italy are
particularly sensitive about this. I'm surprised
that an American on an Internet operations mailing
list would be promoting terrorist activity in
another NATO member country.
In any case, you can't CONTRACT to do this. The
law does not consider an agreement to perform
illegal acts to be a contract. The action you describe
is clearly illegal, therefore it cannot be contracted
for.
