This is nothing new Israel has been doing this for years. It's just that people have started waking up to their lies.

  • """far from being a perfect state""" ??? it's been captured by a bloodthirsty clique, and all the intelligent & wise people in it are leaving

    • It has been captured by bloodthirsty clique is true. But so does the US and every other nation around Israel.

      Just check the facts about each and every government in the middle east.

  • > Qatar lies

    Netanyahu said that "Qatar is not an enemy country". Is he wrong about that? https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-08-14/ty-article/.p...

    • I don’t support Netanyahu, and so does close to 50% of Israelis.

      Qatar is spreading fake information and is funding Hamas as well as anti-Israel classes in major US colleges.

      If you don’t trust Netanyahu then you should disregard the link you shared as well and that just strengthens my point.

    • I mean, they did bomb them. you don't do that to friends.

      I doubt there are any true friends in the middle east, just temporary allies of convinence.

    • Its a messy situation. Qatar hosted HAMAS's bot farms and leadership until 2024 (or 2025, I don't remember) when Israel destroyed it with literal bombs dropped by a F-35I. That happened quite near to both a Qatari military base and a US military base. That doesn't happen unless the Qatari military/government gave approval. I'm no expert in Qatari politics but I would guess that there are significant support for HAMAS in the population. The politicians probably wanted HAMAS leadership and IW operations out of their country, but they also wanted plausible deniability with their own population. So given all of that and assuming there are things happening we don't understand, is Qatar an enemy of Israel? Publicly the answer is no. But its probably also dependent on their respective interests and situationally independent.

  • >>When Obama used social networks, he was called a genius, but when it’s someone you don’t like

    Obama used social networks to spread a milquetoast 'yes we can' message, not to justify an ongoing genocide. How is that even a comparison. Israel is closer to Triumph des Willens than it is to promoting the Affordable Care Act, you do realize that right?

    It's not 'far from being a perfect state', it's waging old testament wars of extermination on its neighbors and towns

    • It has been attacked by a Palestinian militia terrorist group. Is it waging old testament wars? No, but it is retaliating at a rate the western world refuses to accept because the western world has different, much much milder kind of problems.

  • > Israel has been defending itself against for 78 years in both the physical and informational domain, and will continue to do so, just like any other country on earth.

    Of course we could argue any country try to defend itself, but an ever expanding bellicose colony stealing lands from adjacent countries is hardly what could be described as a "defending" stance.

    > People need to wake up to the one-sided lies of the antizionist hate movement that single it out and want to destroy it and its people.

    The end of a State doesn't mean the end of its citizens. It simply mean that a state apparatus and power structure is taken down and replaced by something else.

    • > ever expanding bellicose colony stealing lands from adjacent countries is hardly what could be described as a "defending" stance.

      Asides from the idea that Jews can colonise Judea, Israel returned Sinai to Egypt and left Gaza in 2005 only returning after the recent Hamas murder/rape rampage, which shows ‘ever expanding’ to be an obvious lie.

  • You don't start an international terrorist movement, bomb british colonial authorities, use money to influence british colonial authorities, create armed miliciais and massively finance migration to a land that is owner by other people, kill and expell them by violent means from their cities, homes and farms, use your influence to force the UN to partition the land giving the majority and the best land for you, and then ignores this partition wanting even more land and then you get to call it defense.

  • The bodies of dead children speak for themselves.

    • Yes! Hamas deliberately attacked Jewish children like the Bibas twins and that girl that watched her father slaughtered whereas the IDF put Israeli soldiers lives on the line to avoid civilian casualties.

  • Who knew that seizing the literal holy land and expelling most of the native population would make the neighbors angry?

    • About equal numbers of Palestinians were displaced from the new, UN sanctioned state of Israel, as Jews from adjoining states. And many many more people have been displaced since then. While undoubtedly tragic, most displaced people at some point move on with their lives, and stop terrorising their neighbours and the world.

Like Islamic terrorist organizations, dictatorships, democracies et al have never tried to influence anything either, my point isn't that you're wrong you just sound like a fool trying to pretend this is some "Israeli only" thing. Which is totally in vogue now.
