As most impartial Americans are aware, old and new media were used against Israel in 2006 to foment international criticism of its attacks on Lebanon not the least of which was a Reuters photographer caught doctoring pictures. With this in mind, as reported by the Jerusalem Post Tuesday, the IDF plans on being much more proactive this time in making the international community completely aware ...

Hugh Hewitt: New Media and Gaza: To Whom Should We Turn for Analysis?
Townhall.com Blog's TownHall Blog —
The IDF has launched a YouTube channel covering its operations in Gaza. This step recognizes that the battle in Gaza is also a battle for world opinion, and that Israel --and every other democratic state facing a terrorist threat-- needs to provide accurate information about all operations in as timely and direct a fashion as operational security will allow. With Hamas enjoying the advantage of Arab television stations eager to broadcast pictures of the carnage, Israel needs to continue to convey the IDF's attempt to minimize the death and injury to innocents. Noah Pollack is reporting that YouTube is censoring the material, which is very troubling . How in the world is ...

Latest Developments in Gaza
PoliGazette —
The Israeli attack against Hamas continues: for the third day in a row, the IAF hit Hamas targets in Gaza in an attempt to severely weaken the terrorist organization which, Israeli leaders hope, may result in Hamas opening up to a compromise peace plan.
As of yet, Hamas shows no signs of backing down. Instead, the group’s leaders have become even more aggressive and vocal than they were. They threatened to send many, possibly dozens, suicide attackers to Israeli cities and villages where these terrorists will take their own lives and those of innocent bystanders, all in an attempt to scare Israel into submission.
Having said that, it is becoming increasingly ...
