Of course and so do hackers in a hacker war.

That is usually the ingredients that starts a hacker war.
We're not just talking about civialian hackers here. A hacker war on
what i'm talking about heavily involves government hackers.
- A script kid hacks Israeli interests
- A Isaeli script kid hits them back
- A government hacker for israel hits Syrian and Iranian interests
- A government hacker for Syria and Iran hit Israeli interests
- A civilian hacker hits both Hezbollah and Israeli government interests
All of the above post sensitive military intelligence to mailing lists and
(or) web sites and the victim government goes, "if X government think
they can hack us and post our information to mailing lists and web
sites, we'll do the same".
Welcome to a hacker war.
The world community hasn't realised how important cyber terorrism is
yet during times of land war, but even tually, it will only take one
government or individual civilians to trigger a new trend that the
cyber security industry has been talking about the fearing since post
9/11.

You're misinformed there. Both western governments and (or) western
civilians have vested interest in accessing middle-eastern systems
illegally and post data obtained from this to the internet, as have
middle eastern governments and (or) eastern civilians.
It isn't an _if_ but a when. Maybe not in this conflict between Israel
and Lebanon, but sometime in the future, a hacker war is going to
happen, based on military action(s) between governments on the ground.
