#hasbarah — Public Fediverse posts

the header image I just put up is from a protest of one of the major broadcast media companies that I went to in 2014, where a die-in was staged in protest of their ignoring the topic of Gaza in the news and reporting solely in line with AIPAC's #Hasbarah and #IsraeliPropaganda.

it's eleven years later and nothing has changed except that the war has escalated to outright #Genocide.

I hate this beyond the measure of words.

any.

person.

who supports Israeli actions in #Gaza and considers the absolute destruction of buildings, hospitals, infrastructure, and schools reasonable or right because "Hamas was operating out of them" doesn't belong here and can kindly fuck right off.

#US / On 60 Minutes' airing of a Mossad-controlled Hezbollah operation segment

[...] When news organizations allow access to dictate content, when they trade critical distance for insider footage, they betray their fundamental mission.

CBS's 60 Minutes is facing criticism for a segment on an Israeli operation against Hezbollah, with accusations that the show allowed Mossad to heavily influence the narrative by selecting interviewees and censoring information during filming. The report highlights concerns about journalistic integrity, suggesting that the pursuit of exclusive content led to a compromised and uncritical portrayal of an operation that resulted in numerous casualties, effectively turning the news program into a platform for Israeli propaganda.

The article states that #Mossad chief David Barnea selected the agents to be interviewed for the 60 Minutes segment. Additionally, a representative of Israeli military censorship was present during the interview in Tel Aviv to ensure prearranged understandings and censorship of unwanted information were observed. These facts indicate a significant level of control by the Mossad over the content that was aired.

[...] The 60 Minutes story was fully controlled by the Mossad, Israel's foreign espionage agency. In return for granting CBS exclusivity, the deal was that Mossad chief David Barnea would select the agents to be interviewed. In addition, a representative of Israeli military censorship sat nearby during the interview, at a filming location in a Tel Aviv hotel, to monitor and make sure that the prearranged understandings—including the censorship of information it did not want discussed—would be observed.

Quoting Joe Biden (via Bob Woodward): “18 of 19 people who work for Netanyahu are liars”

Some commenters on Israeli news sites joke about a gap in #Biden's negotiation/business skills:

[...] "A common American expression says: 'Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.' Something is wrong with Biden. He needs to know how to do business with liars: for example, payment first and in cash. Work with them only on the record and punish them for the lies they spread."

Biden's repeated disappointment and surprise is either cluelessness, a lack of preparedness, or worse. A seasoned politician is expected to have the necessary experience to navigate complex negotiations.

Why did these challenges catch him off-guard? He has been around long enough to know that the State of Israel always lies. It always lied. The practice of shaping international diplomacy through deception and public relations with #Hasbarah, is a long-standing practice. In fact, It can be traced back to the Zionist movement itself, which tried to hide its plans for the Arab population of Palestine by demanding operatives not to discuss them "in public".

It involves more than just communication strategies; it reflects a philosophy that relies on manipulation and misinformation, essentially out of mistrust of "gentiles" (and now increasingly Liberal Jews, Israeli and foreign), who are always potentially antisemites.

The use of victimhood and vitriol, along with excessive noise is performative (i.e. Arden, Danon... at the U.N.), is meant to distract from the core issue and obstruct any possibility for a genuine peace/reconciliation process which will end the occupation.

#Nakba1948 / The birth of an "Hasbrah Nation” ...

[...] Ben-Gurion probably never heard the word “Nakba,” but early on, at the end of the 1950s, Israel’s first prime minister grasped the importance of the historical narrative. Just as #Zionism had forged a new narrative for the Jewish people within a few decades, he understood that the other nation that had resided in the country before the advent of Zionism would also strive to formulate a narrative of its own. For the Palestinians, the national narrative grew to revolve around the Nakba, the calamity that befell them following Israel’s establishment in 1948, when about 700,000 Palestinians became refugees.

Historian Shay Hazkani (today an associate Professor of History at the University of Maryland) uncovered in this early publication a concerted effort orchestrated by Israel's first prime minister, David Ben-Gurion, to manipulate the historical narrative surrounding the 1948 Palestinian exodus/explosion.

Seeking to secure international sympathy for the Jewish state (which declared independence unilaterally after a failed attempt to implement the partition resolution and while the UN were busy formulation a trustsheep, suggested by the U.S.), Ben-Gurion instructed Israeli historians to produce research that would obscure the expulsion of Palestinians, instead promoting the narrative that they fled their homes voluntarily.

Hazkani argues that this manipulation was a calculated attempt to rewrite history, downplaying Israel's role in the Palestinian #Nakba and swaying global opinion in favor of the newly established nation.

[cont'd] Why did a British Jewish newspaper publish fake Israeli intelligence?

A British Jewish newspaper, the Jewish Chronicle, published an exclusive report claiming that Hamas leader Yahya #Sinwar intended to smuggle out remaining hostages via the Philadelphi Corridor to #Iran. However, this story was entirely fabricated and based on false intelligence sources. The article's author, Elon Perry, was also found to have a fake identity, with many of his claimed credentials and experiences being untrue. The publication of these false reports is seen as an attempt by #Netanyahu to influence public opinion in favor of continuing the war in #Gaza.

[cont'd] Israeli media continues to rehash this "report," omitting crucial information about the Israeli-British lawyer behind it.

Netanyahu's paper, Israel Hayom, re-titled this item "BBC Taken Hostage by Israel Haters" (possibly an indirect reference to Hamas).

In response to the original publication in The Telegraph, a spokesperson for the corporation said the BBC had "serious questions" about the report's methodology.

Israel Hayom's piece includes, at the very end, this extended comment (re-translated from Hebrew, as I couldn't find the original English text):

The BBC has informed "Israel Hayom" that it has significant doubts about the methodology used in the report, particularly regarding its reliance on artificial intelligence to analyze bias and interpret guidelines for evaluating coverage. We do not believe that a news organization's credibility can be assessed solely by counting certain words or phrases, disconnected from context. Our aim is to provide an impartial report, rather than create a "balance of empathy," as suggested in the report. We are confident that our experienced and dedicated writers achieve this goal, despite the complex and challenging nature of the conflict. However, we will approach the report with caution and respond directly to its authors once we have thoroughly studied it.

Separately, the most recent research indicates a higher likelihood that viewers would turn to BBC for neutral coverage rather than any other source. An independent study by "More in Common" found that BBC's reporting is perceived as more neutral than that of other organizations. We categorically reject the insinuations that our writers have "celebrated" terrorist actions, and the attack on BBC journalists who operate under the same journalistic standards.

[…] I regret having believed - like so many others - that that suicide letter was real. It turns out it was a fake. I find this an appalling act given that so many real lives were taken at the Nova festival, so many crimes committed, so many souls destroyed.
