Jeremy: both sides are sending me press releases and are playing a PR war too. I figured I’d just link to the Twitter accounts.

why do i get the feeling that very few Israelis who are getting attacked by rockets every day, or Palestinians whose “leaders” are hiding out amongst their civilians and causing tanks and soldiers to come through residential neighborhoods all don’t care very much about what’s being debated in 140-character blocks of text?

Don’t be a tool. Who the f*** cares about twitter or PR exchanges? The US supports Israel. You are a US Citizen. You live in the US. Your tax dollars support Israel. I wonder which side you should take? The side of sanity, by not reporting such utter nonsense.
Your cred is slipping away.

Jeremy: so I’m supposed to fall in line and support whatever my government supports? That’s a lame position. By the way, my post took no position on which side I’m on. If you want to know, just ask. But this was about how both sides were using Twitter to get the word out from their point of view. Geeessshhh.

It is very interesting to see both sides like this thanks for putting this out there. And Jeremy, Robert is just saying how the internet is being used by entities to wage PR wars, if you don’t care then don’t read his blog, don’t be such a douche.

The Gaza war on Twitter has been an example of how important social media has become as a propaganda and PR tool, and also how it connects people. So far I’m not convinced that helps resolve things but more direct communication is generally a postiive thing.

Reading the headline, I thought this was about Rick Sanchez of CNN complaining about his “I’m naked in my dressing room smoking crack/PCP” posts getting deleted (FoxNews, CNN, Huffingtonpost.com, et all recently had some Twitter accounts compromised with fake posts)

This is getting interesting, in regards of Social warfare. Now the Israeli defense is all into social media all of sudden, to support their propaganda?
Anyway, I just got back from US few days ago and I can tell you don’t get the full picture from the media at all.
I am suggesting to watch AL Jazeera English. If you don’t have cable or such, then try livestation.com ~ lv provides different channel streams including BBC and Al Jazeera.
Also, People on the ground (Israel & Gaza) can report incidents to http://labs.aljazeera.net/warongaza ~ It basically visualizes all incidents being reports by the citizens. Check it out.
