"Meeting with American influencers, Netanyahu called social media “the most important weapon” in Israel’s fight. This is a foreign head of state— one who, through his lobby, for all practical purposes controls Congress and the White House — strategizing how to use social media to occupy the American mind."

"In response, Israel is investing millions of dollars to revive its image. In 1 initiative, Israeli propagandists hv abandoned calling ethnic cleansing“voluntary migration,”a term repeated frequently in establishment media.A new initiative will refer to it as “a plan of free movement.”As C Johnstone writes, “They never say ‘It’s time to stop doing the things t cause people to hate us,’ they just say ‘It’s time for a rebrand.’”

"The Costs of War project at Brown Univ deemed Israel’s war on #Gaza the deadliest conflict for media workers ever recorded. Lukyanova’s anonymously sourced “exposé” accusing Al Jazeera reporters of being “affiliated with Hamas” came just two weeks after +972 Magazine revealed a secret Israeli military propaganda campaign to tie critical reporters to the designated “terrorist organization,” using what it calls a “Legitimization Cell.”

"Attacks on the medical infrastructure of Gaza (and elsewhere) are a long term strategy of genocide– if people cannot have access to medical care (or food or shelter), they will need to relocate and Israeli ethnic cleansing achieves its goals. Kill off the doctors as another means to kill off the people." #Palestine #Genocide #Cuba #WesternComplicity #MediaComplicity #WarCrimes

"Indeed, this is the first genocide in history where artificial intelligence has been deployed as a primary tool for slaughter and devastation. Furthermore, this genocide is backed by a dedicated propaganda apparatus designed to instantly rationalize every atrocity."

" #Lebanon is not the exception. The same Israeli formula plays out in #Gaza, in #Syria, and the #WestBank: occupy the territory, demolish the homes, expel the people, then grant the Israeli army “full freedom of action” with “no restriction…” to strike at will while expecting the occupied to remain still."

From "Never Again" to Israel’s "Gates of Hell" in Gaza and Lebanon -

In October 2024 the Israeli army did a thing. It invited #journalists from major Western corporate media outlets on an incursion into Lebanon’s ravaged south, accompanied by Israeli military. Reporters from the #NewYorkTimes, #WashingtonPost, #AssociatedPress, #Reuters, #BBC, #FoxNews and a handful of other special guests signed up.
...The #media’s acceptance and deployment of such arbitrary vocabulary creates “artificial structures” and a sense of orderliness, when in reality “there’s no yellow lines, there’s no yellow, there’s no colors—these are just illegal invasions.” And because media are committed to sanitizing Israel’s behavior rather than questioning it, “colonization becomes normalized.”
...A June 4 Reuters writeup blamed #Hezbollah for having “rejected” the latest US-mediated “#ceasefire” plan—which, mind you, would basically have given #Israel the green light to seize south #Lebanon outright.
While invoking Hezbollah’s support by Iran is practically a requirement for Western media reports, it is never deemed necessary to qualify Israel’s own orientation in any way—like, I dunno, “The war that never ended: Genocidal psychostate backed to the hilt by global superpower seizes moment to finish fight against Hezbollah.”

"Further adding to the imbalance when it comes to Middle East crises is the fact that Meta has granted Israel privileged access to its content moderation policy teams. In 2024,The Intercept reported how Meta employee Jordana Cutler, a former aide to Benjamin Netanyahu, served as a dedicated liaison to the Israeli government, advocating for the country’s interests and helping facilitate the removal of unwanted speech.

The Guardian protest liveblog appears to be a minute-by-minute update on Tommeh and his fash friends, with pretty much bugger all about the Palestine march. Who would have guessed that corporate media would salivate over one protest and ignore the other? 🙄

"We have varying levels of knowledge about Cuba, ranging from first-time visitors to Cuba to citizens and former residents of the island. Our political opinions vary along a wide range, but we are unanimous in one aspect that was left out of the CBS Sunday Morning program: Cuba needs and deserves an end to the US-imposed sanctions."

"The documentation of this is clear. This existed before Oct 7th. I think that’s one thing I’m upset with Kristof about, Kristof did not make that clear in his column. You could read it almost as if this is a recent development. It’s not. The systematic #torture, including rape and sexual assault on Palestinian prisoners, #Palestinians hostages is a better term, has been evident and documented for decades, including on children"

Excellent article re #MediaComplicity
"... how Palestinians are dehumanized,consider the media’s treatment of former Harvard Univ Pres C. Gay in comparison 2their coverage,or lack thereof,of the killing of Hind Rajab.Not long after Gay resigned under pressure frm Congress (...)the Israeli military opened fire on a car carrying Rajab and her family and left the 5-yr-old Palestinian girl to die.

No surprise US media giving platform to #WarCriminal
"The interview on CBS News’s “60 Minutes” took a friendly, almost ingratiating tone at times–a mark of the shift at CBS since the network installed far right Bari Weiss as chief editor last fall. Weiss hs transformed CBS into a news outlet favorable to Trump and other right-wing figures..."#MediaComplicity #Lebanon #Zionism #WeAreAllPalestinians #ElSalvador #IsraelRogueState

Do you condemn October 7th? Very well. And April 8th? And all those other days when #Lebanon and #Palestine are being martyred amid general indifference? Israel isn't even hiding anymore: journalists, rescue workers, women, children—the crimes are being committed openly.
In this 2nd press review of "Page 27 Syndrome,"we revisit these abuses, too often downplayed in public debate, as well as the contortions of European diplomacy ...in French

"Shortly after Israel’s genocide first began in October 2023, European news aggregator Upday reportedly instructed workers to suppress news about Palestinian death tolls or casualties. At the time, Axel Springer denied the allegations, but pointed journalists to the company’s “essentials” backing Israel’s right to exist."

"This abuse can no longer be simply swallowed away and ignored by what has been a long, highly financed and successful Israeli and Zionist campaign of deflection, typically led by the glaring petty mantra of anti-Semite."

Also because Zionist influence is quite big there as well. If it weren't, the mainstream media would've taken a different stand on the genocide (TheGuardian included) and other atrocities perpetrated by the Terrorist colonial state of Israel.

Yesterday I watched Raoul Peck´s Orwell 2+2=4 and what really struck me was Edward Snowden saying his greatest fear was the populace knowing what is going on and doing nothing.
