(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - It was the second time this year that the Internet giant had become entangled in conflicts in the Middle East.
"For a short period, some users visiting google.ps were redirected to a different website," Google said in an e-mailed statement. "Google services for the google.ps domain were not hacked."
Pro-Palestinian hackers changed the IP address of the Palestine domain, sending users to a defaced site titled "Google Owned," according to the Israeli daily newspaper Haaretz. A visit to the domain today revealed nothing unusual.
Google sparked uproar in Israel in May when it changed the taglines on its websites from "Palestinian territories" to "Palestine."
