Israel is Broadcasting Its Attacks On Hamas Via YouTube

By Ann Bartow

Here is one example entitled “Israeli Air Force Strikes Terror Targets in Gaza 29 Dec. 2008″:

The YouTube channel maintained by the Israel Defense Force Spokesperson’s Unit is here. Text there explains:

The IDF Spokesperson’s Unit is the Israel Defense Forces’ professional body responsible for media and public relations in Israel and around the world. This is our new site that will help us do so.

We were saddened on Dec. 30, 2008 when YouTube took down some of our exclusive footage showing the IDF’s operational success in operation Cast Lead against Hamas extremists in the Gaza Strip. Fortunately, due to blogger and viewer support, YouTube has returned the footage they removed.

Newest update: Instead of removing the footage youtube has restricted viewing ability. We are in the process of opening up a blog so that you will be able to view the videos without problem there.

We thank you for visiting us and will continue to update this site.
