Hackers (illustrative)

Hackers attacked Israeli web sites en masse today. Haaretz and AP reported that government web sites experienced some disruptions, “but the damage appeared minimal.”

Yitzhak Ben Yisrael, of the government’s National Cyber Bureau, said hackers had mostly failed to shut down key sites.

“So far it is as was expected, there is hardly any real damage,” Ben Yisrael said. “Anonymous doesn’t have the skills to damage the country’s vital infrastructure. And if that was its intention, then it wouldn’t have announced the attack ahead of time. It wants to create noise in the media about issues that are close to its heart,” he said.

Other unimpressed experts told the Jerusalem Post the attacks “suit amateur children.” Tweets from @BenjaminTudela had me laughing.

Jerusalem Post: Palestinian journalists are harassing and inciting violence against their Israeli counterparts. In one example:

In a similar incident, Ohad Hemo, who covers Palestinian affairs for Channel 2, said that activists had threatened him and his crew when he arrived at central Ramallah’s Manara Square to cover a rally.

Palestinian activists and journalists also published photos on Facebook depicting what they said was an assault against another Israeli journalist in Ramallah. One of the photos featured the correspondent’s smashed microphone on the ground after the assault.

It has become dangerous for Israeli reporters to enter Palestinian cities, mainly because of the incitement by some Palestinian journalists,” a veteran Israeli correspondent told The Jerusalem Post.
