New battleground: resistance moves into cyberspace. The Lebanese Daily Star reports on Hezbollah accusations of an Israeli denial of service attack on Hezbollah’s website after the kidnapping of three Israeli soldiers on October 7th. Noting that a large number of these increased “hits” came from North American sites, the Hezbollah webmaster concluded, “It’s obvious that the Americans are conspiring with Israel to cripple our site.” (It’s obvious he doesn’t understand distributed denial of service attacks.) The article includes links to mirrors of the Hezbollah site in case it’s down. [via The Web Today]
