Syria-Lebanon-Iran
IDF hax0rs
2006-07-31
After repeated Israeli efforts to destroy Hizbullah's al-Manar television station have failed, an IDF intelligence unit succeeded this week in hacking the station's live broadcasts, planting Israeli PR messages in the transmissions..

The al-Manar channel regularly airs juicy propaganda against Israel, including reports of "heroic" and "successful" operations by Hizbullah fighters against IDF special forces.

However, this weekend the IDF prepared a surprise for the Lebanese and Arab viewers of the channel: The broadcast was interrupted and caricatures of Nasrallah appeared on the screen, accompanied by captions reading: "Your days are numbered" and "Nasrallah, your time is up. Soon you won't be with us anymore."

Additionally, Hizbullah and al-Manar internet sites also received "special treatment" by Israeli technical specialists, and several were erased from the internet.

#8  Stupid waste of a good opportunity. So the Israeli's hacked al-Manar and then only used it to toss a few childish insults. They should have taken advantage to show the viewers the nasty crap Hezbulllah is doing to their own people. Shouldn't be hard to use Nasrullah's own word against him, point out some of the hypocrisy. But no, missed it again.

#7  What's not to like? They need to inject footage of Hezbollah deploying their anti-aircraft and rocket launchers in civilian neighborhoods, with before and after shots (as it were).
