Unfortunately, we've been seeing the gruesome and violent images from the brutal war between Israel and the Islamic militants controlling Gaza on TV almost daily. Now, it seems that battleground is moving to the Internet.
Video shows Israeli forces launching attacks, as the war between Israel and the terrorist group Hamas rages on in the Middle East. Israel has posted videos on YouTube of the attacks.
They show smart bombs hitting specific targets. It is an attempt to drum up support around the world. Hamas and its supporters meanwhile have posted their own propaganda on YouTube and Facebook.
Some experts say the blogosphere, video sharing, and social networking sites have become a warzone in themselves; all being utilized as a battleground for world opinion.
We should warn you, some of the footage is graphic.
