The cyberwar has been brough to these sites as well, showing that the
zionista rem is indeed quite long.
Accessing the URL http://www.members.tripod.com/irsa reveals that,
"the page or file that you're looking for is not here."
While, the maintainers of http://www.ummah.net/unity/defend
have put up the following message:

http://www.hisbollah.com is back up, however, after being down for a
while after getting hacked.
