ISRAEL today hacked into the television station of Hezbollah,
emblazoning images on the screen showing pictures of corpses and
claiming the Shiite militant group's leader Hassan Nasrallah was a liar.

One of the images shown on Al-Manar television portrayed the body of a
fighter lying face-down, wearing khaki trousers with a text beneath in
Arabic reading: "This is the photograph of a body of a member of
Hezbollah's special forces".

"Nasrallah lies: it is not us that is hiding our losses," continued the
text, which appeared during the evening news and stayed on the screen
for several minutes.

A photograph of Nasrallah himself also appeared with the legend:
"member of Hezbollah: watch out".

Another photograph of corpses was framed by the words: "there are a
large number of corpses like this on the ground and Nasrallah is hiding
this truth".

Israel also hacked into FM radio stations and instead of normal
programs a two-minute recording was repeatedly broadcast.
