Conway, Maura orcid logoORCID: 0000-0003-4216-8592 (2005) Cybercortical warfare: Hizbollah's internet strategy. In: Oates, Sarah, Owen, Diana and Gibson, Rachel K., (eds.)

Abstract
The major focus of this chapter is the way in which Hizbollah have wielded the Internet as a weapon in their information war. As will be demonstrated, the group’s collection of Web sites is targeted not at Lebanese or Palestinian audiences, but at the Israeli population and global publics. For this reason, the chapter represents a case study of the possibilities of the new technology, discussed and defined by this chapter as ‘cybercortical warfare’.
