What does "...send millions of attacks in the form of viruses to penetrate and disrupt the Internet communications" mean?<p>By my reading, all this is saying is that a single ISP in the Palestinian territories is down, possibly due to an attack or maybe an idiot fat fingered a Cisco.<p>It's very sad that everything Palestinian is immediately political and Israel/US's fault. Maybe it is, but it would be nice if this wasn't the default assumption without evidence. The Palestinian people have a miserable enough time without the heaping of this kind inflammatory crap.
Supposedily during this attach both the majority of phones and also the majority of internet in the whole Palestinian territories was shut down.<p>It is clear it was done in retaliation for the Palestinian's seeking formal recognition of an independent state at the UN.<p>The question is, was this done by sophisticated pro-Israel hackers or was this done by the Israeli government itself? One thing is pretty sure, the Israeli government is likely to put very little effort into figuring out who caused it.
