Ynet has a story today about a Hezbollah video game glorifying its 2006 war against Israel. The object of ‘Special Forces 2’ is to launch missiles at IDF gunboats, tanks and helicopters, and to fire rockets at “Israeli settlements.”

“The July 2006 war ended on August 14, but the electronic war goes on,” said Ali Dahar, a Hezbollah media official. “It’s the right of every Lebanese child to know what happened in southern Lebanon in order to be able to tell of jihad and resistance.”
