Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Who do you think funds their propaganda?
I'm so sick of takes like this that are borderline nazi ZOG bullshit.
Also that
The Americans have never needed an excuse to go do some genocide, and the rest of the
are US allies and thus don't need one either
Of course they wouldn't, but British media is filled to the brim with pro-Israel propaganda, is it not? I wouldn't think it would be controversial to say that it might have at least some impact on forcing politicians and the public to maintain support for the genocide, but maybe I'm missing something here.
The difference is that it's primarily the US in control and by extension groups like AIPAC because the state of Israel's goals aligns with US interests. The claim wasn't that there was zero impact. The state of Israel is an easy stand-in for "the Jews" in anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. It's important to remember that Israel is only able to stand because of the US (and sometimes its European satellites) funneling money to it
Much thanks for the detailed response and I agree with all of that.
No definitely not also that.
