"As of 2013, Israel had been condemned in 45 resolutions by United Nations Human Rights Council since its creation in 2006—the Council had resolved almost more resolutions condemning Israel than on the rest of the world combined." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_the_UN_resolutions_concerning_Israel_and_Palestine http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_the_UN_resolutions_conc... Yeah.... "praise Israel".

  Brace yourself for the Jewish Internet Defense Force (yes that's a thing) down voting your comment to non-existence. "O thee! Thou shalt not insult Israel!" - I just wish Israels actions would be condemned instead of only frowned upon. It's a criminal and illegal state, yet tolerated by the majority of the people.

  Yes, the U.N is definitely known for its objectivity regarding Israel. http://imgur.com/4FQNZBu http://imgur.com/4FQNZBu

    Oh, so how would you describe Israel in a more objective way then? We are talking about a brief history (60+ years) of massacres and a growing illegal occupation of land here, would you like to phrase that in a more nicer way no to offend "God's chosen people" or what's the problem?

      I recommend you pursue your line of inquiry elsewhere.

I wonder how they found these OpIsrael participants in the first place. I assume they just went into an IRC channel dedicated to OpIsrael and struck up conversations with gullible people to try and get their personal information. I doubt these are the people responsible for the credit card and email leaks from several days ago. http://time.com/51616/anonymous-israel-attack/ http://time.com/51616/anonymous-israel-attack/

> Israeli hackers broke into the computers of Anonymous members that attacked Israel "attacked Israel"? I wasn't aware that Israel was a computer. Anyone know where this article's sources are?

Politics aside (fucking retards). Looks like the attack was performed by getting the ips of users in the #opisrael chat room and trawling for vulnerable targets. Which means most of the outed users probably has nothing to do with the defacing of Israeli web sites. It's a much much easier attack than trying to go after them who was active in the initial attack who likely have slightly better security than random irc users.
