This is content-free. UStwo, I believe everyone has acknowledged the use of information warfare. Those in conflicts will use the weapons available, and some of them will be used by very twisted individuals. Everyone does it. That includes Palestinians, Israelies, and every other organized political body I've ever heard about certainly including our own. Does anyone not believe this? Does your example say anything surprising or remarkable?
What are we to discuss? Motivations? Continuity? General production values? Seems like time better spent discussing who's pushing our buttons. But that's my thread, not yours.
Please let us in on where you're going with this.

There are a vast number of people who are uninformed and heavily propagandized, but fundamentally decent. The propaganda that inundates them is effective when unchallenged, but much of it goes only skin deep. If they can be brought to raise questions and apply their decent instincts and basic intelligence, many people quickly escape the confines of the doctrinal system and are willing to do something to help others who are really suffering and oppressed." -Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media, p. 195
