I said that already, I think we're in agreement.Its not just what you tell people. Its how you tell people. Propaganda doesnt have to false. It can just be selective. Like if there was a battle and 200 Palestinians died and 3 Israelis died the headline "over 200 people were killed today in the fighting between Israeli and Palestinian forces." is a factually correct statement. But it presents itself as there was a comparable amount of loss on both sides which is factually incorrect. So if you hear that people are dying on both sides, you think it must be a fair fight then, right?
I’m saying I don’t know who they are. It doesn’t even look like the right BBC font or colour on the news article for starters. Could be anything, and I doubt if it’s from Israeli led propaganda that it’s anything legit.
The footage of a beige jacketed Palestinian man making a miraculous recovery after appearing to be injured in an Israeli airstrike was broadcast not only on the BBC but also on CNN.
HonestReporting’s video of this sequence has now been viewed over a quarter of a million times on YouTube, helping to expose Pallywood to an audience beyond our regular readership.
The reactions from the BBC and CNN when confronted with the evidence could not have been more different.
CNN’s Anderson Cooper made an on-air statement
What do we consider legit? (serious question)
Legit Hoax? Legit Fake? Legit Hamas made hoax? Legit Israel made hoax? I don't even know what considered legit anymore. Although in this case it's legit the man didn't die.
Regarding the video. It is real, even BBC reacted to it
Anyway, regardless of who made it, the effect felt in Indonesia, people are being led into Anti Israel sentiments, recently massive protest on US embassy, and don't get me started on the hate speech being circulated on local whatsapp group on how Israel Rape/torture/behead/mutilate victim (mostly are hoax) but the aftermath is real. Although to be fair, our country has a tendency to believe everything from a magical fortune pig (babi ngepet) @Kopral Jono to a man who can double your money magic style.
The world is really fueling on hoax and propaganda, all across the world. Everywhere, from all aspect and all sides. Be It russia, american, china, right wing left wing, it really takes alot of wisdom to determine what's real and what's not, and even then we're swimming against tides of propaganda material.
The nefarious thing about anti-Israel sentiments in Indonesia (and maybe to an extent Malaysia), especially when coupled with unverified narratives, is that it has the tendency to veer into anti-Chinese sentiments, who are often seen by Islamists and hardline nationalists as the 'Jews of Indonesia' with all the same nasty stereotypes. My partner is actually Chinese Indonesian and the trauma of the 1998 riots is still all too fresh for them.
I mean, that's a pretty asinine point to make. There's a degree of bias with most major news networks, that's expected.It doesn't have to be untrue to be propaganda. It just has to be curated in a one sided way to appeal to groups who largely already agree with one another.
A response to that clown Oliver:
The problem I see with calling these social media posts propaganda is that they're actively fighting propaganda. If it weren't for them, we'd have to rely on the media narrative, which would not bode well for the Palestinians. I understand what you're saying but I see these guys as whistleblowers more than propagandists.
What could be more objective than a website started by two pretty staunch Zionists.

Wait? Oliver is a clown? When did this happen?
The only other cults that call Oliver a clown are Trump supporters. You can spell cults however you like.
My 'twitter grabs' are being reported by credible sources from an array of reporters.Certainly not your twitter grabs.
Nah, this guy is a comedian, I think he runs some sort of a late night talk show.
Here's another one, to counter the one sided bulk of misinformation that Oliver spewed:
That's one poorly designed web site, must be legit.
Pathetic.
What you're saying is, commedians should just make jokes and not get involved in politics. Yeah?I just didn’t find it remotely funny. Same with Oliver’s piece. Neither are remotely funny and are obviously attempting to be political when they are actually comedians.

You post obscure, unrelated youtube links and Zionist propaganda and are unable to engage in any meaningful debate. Do you need to do the advanced course of hasbara training?

I am glad he has gotten you annoyed.John Oliver is just a really shit Ben Elton.
Pathetic.
I am glad he has gotten you annoyed.
He's not right. It is technically genocide, although you could use less alienating terms to describe it. Apartheid is now the least controversial way to describe Israeli state actions.Are you going to boycott the avengers now? He’s 100% right. I don’t agree with what Israel is doing but ani-Semitic rhetoric has ramped up.

Where's the proof that anti-Semitism has "ramped up"? You need to provide citations via peer reviewed research for claims like those.
You'd have been banned in any other similar thread at this point.Anti-zionists seem to spend an inordinate amount of effort anti-semiticly explaining why anti-semitism/zionism isn't anti-semitic.

Funny how all your sources are credible yet mine is merely propaganda. I've posted links that speak from both sides. You haven't.
Oh I wonder why.
Where's the anti-Semitism? Criticising Israel does not amount to anti Semitism.
Your sources are Youtube links or blog posts from Zionists.Funny how all your sources are credible yet mine is merely propaganda. I've posted links that speak from both sides. You haven't.

Questioning it's been 'ramped up' is.
Zionists spend an inordinate amount of time defending terrorist Zionist State bombings by deflecting and accusing others of Anti Semitism. See how easy that was?

Anti Zionist/Semites spend an inordinate amount of time defending proscribed terrorist group Hamas rockets by deflecting and accusing others of Islamophobia. See how easy that was?
