According to the New York Times, the campaign was undertaken by Israel’s Ministry of Diaspora Affairs with the intent to gain support from the U.S. public and lawmakers.
What I remember from those times though, is Isreal outright lying about the atrocities they were commiting in Gaza and the West Bank. They were so heavy handed with their message even back then. And those social media accounts that are trying to garner support for them now have the exact same flavor. Spotted the lies immediately after this conflict started.
Earlier also Lebanon. I met some wonderful people from Lebanon who came here as refugees to the Netherlands. At least they had means to escape. My father in law is Jewish and he doesn’t like what has been going on since forever in Israel or the family he has there.
It honestly amazes me how they have managed to silence the people who dissent. It’s that loud over the top rhetoric, it’s an old practice and very annoying.
