Information War

While looking for Lebanon tagged pics on Flickr I found pictures of an anti war protest in Tel Aviv and then checked the photographers blog and found this post: We watch them and they watch us

Seems the Israeli TV stations has been watching the Arab TV stations and giving commentary about it. One such incident is when Israel TV is showing Manar TV Showing Israel TV live!.

Al Manar TV, Hezbollah television, is showing Zvi live while he is in the Tel Aviv studio. They are broadcasting our broadcast in real time, from Beirut, translating from Hebrew into Arabic what Zvi is saying, and responding in real time. “We can see you!” said the Al Manar moderator, mockingly, as he smiled into the camera.

What is going on in that area is so different than any struggle or war we had before. The first Gulf War there was just CNN and BBC, the second one enterted a majority of the new Arab stations. This one feels it will be really people powered.

Like Miss D posting SMSes her brother sends her as he is Leaving Lebanon, and withRampurple’s posts from pepole in Lebanon and even from another perspective of an Israeli in his bunker during Hizbollah attacks

The casualties will not just be mere numbers any more they will have faces and names and we will know people who know them
