Tracing terror videos on the Net

Let's use the example of The Islamic Army in Iraq (Al-Jaysh al-Islami) - allegedly responsible for the kidnapping and beheading of Europeans and Americans in Iraq. 

A website with the domain name iaisite.net carries the group's name on its banner image and carries links to their videos.

Some investigators claim that it  is directly connected to Al-Jaysh al-Islami.

But how do we trace who is behind iaisite.net and the services that host the videos they link to?
