Involvement in The July War
Members and Orange Room staff were heavily involved in the media war that accompanied the July War. It can be reasonably argued that The Orange Room played a significant role in the virtual online information war. The following is a list of websites that have been at least indirectly linked to Orange Room staff members:
- From Israel to Lebanon
- Stop Destroying Lebanon
- The "Save the Lebanese Civilians" Petition, that collected over 200,000 signatures. The petition website was attacked by hackers several times during the July War.
The Orange Room website itself was the target of continuous attacks.

“The mother whose self-image is dependent on her children places on those children the responsibility for her own identity, and her involvement in the details of their lives can put great pressure on the children.

—Joseph H. Pleck (20th century)
“People in Stamps used to say that the whites in our town were so prejudiced that a Negro couldn’t buy vanilla ice cream. Except on July Fourth. Other days he had to be satisfied with chocolate.”
