Israel's new arms against terror: YouTube By Guy Griml The government recently posted three videos related to the terror attack at Jerusalem's Mercaz Harav Yeshiva earlier this month. While the poster was not identified as having any connection to the government, TheMarker has learned that the Prime Minister's Office was actually behind the upload to the popular video file-sharing site. It is the first time that a government body has used the site in response to a terror attack. The first film, at http://tinyurl.com/2rdrqw, features graphic and bloody footage shot inside the yeshiva in the wake of the attack, as English subtitles document an emergency call made by a yeshiva student during the attack. The one-minute video attracted over 5,300 viewings and 88 responses as of last night. Advertisement The second film is shorter, at 27 seconds, and is entitled "Act Now: Stop the Bloodshed, Stop the Terror. It features similar images, with solemn background music and title screens in English describing the attack. The third (http://tinyurl.com/2u6yh7) is a slightly longer version of the second. In the past, the government has responded to terror attacks with official statements to radio and television stations. A source close to the latest measure has told TheMarker that Jerusalem will upload videos to YouTube in the event of any future terror attacks.
