    PRO ISRAELI HACKERS START CYBER ATTACKS AT PRO GAZA SITE...

     

    PRO ISRAELI HACKERS START CYBER ATTACKS AT PRO GAZA SITE and HACK INTO www.ShoeIsrael.com the sequel game and redirects it to www.ShoeBushWorldwide.com, the original game version.

     

    For over a week, Ten24x and PWEMA, developers of www.ShoeBushWorldwide.com, have announced the sequel www.ShoeIsrael.com to allow people to whack Olmert, Livni, Barak, Peres and Netanyahu with a Shoe.

     

    The goal is to throw 1.5 Million shoes at them on behalf of the 1.5 Million helpless Palestinians living under siege and fire in Gaza by the Israeli Army and send a message to Obama.

     

    As the team was preparing to launch a beta test version of the game, they noticed that their site was hacked and www.ShoeIsrael.com was redirected to replay the original www.ShoeBushWorldwide.com game, erasing all references to the new game  www.ShoeIsrael.com.  The makers did the beta test and launched it immediately, with full knowledge that any potential open doors might result in a possible cyber attack, and sure thing the hack did occur on the beta site, very quickly.  The full game release is planned for this Friday, Ten24x and PWEMA promise to close all hack doors when the full game version of www.ShoeIsrael.com is released.
