I'm not 100% sure of this but it looks like IMC Palestine has been hacked

Unfortunately I can't give you any more information than this.

The Newswire is dominanted some 30 plus posts with the header and body consisting of the word "ignore"

furthermore the URL for the IMC http://jerusalem.indymedia.org/

will regularly divert you to

http://soberingup.brinkster.net/victums/evictims.asp

A website of Jewish victims of "Arafat's Crimes" the sites own words.

The site is run by Israeli Emergency Solidarity fund.

This is a loathsome attempt at censorship. IMC Palestine is operating in the most dangerous and stressful circumstances, and it's shows the desperation of these people that they feel they need to hide the truth. The people that are doing this what are you afraid of? How can you claim your cause is just if you won't allow the other side to speak?
