Israel - Palestine Discussion | Post Respectfully | Discuss more, tweet less

This feels like Israeli government propaganda.

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:

 
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 said that already, I think we're in agreement.
 
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.

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

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

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.

Yes, that's the remnants of the devide et'impera by the dutch colonials, amplified further by Soeharto to become the 1965 scapegoat.
 
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.
I mean, that's a pretty asinine point to make. There's a degree of bias with most major news networks, that's expected.

You're trying to make equivalence between that certain degree with Israel funded hasbara, curated, one eyed-ness. A concerted effort, where obviously a lot of money has been pumped in to change and control the narrative to paint the aggressor in a good light. They even have paid sponsorships and internships for this shit. The PR war is obviously important to them, and, so much so that they're misrepresenting the news, and misappropriating the facts.
 
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.

If what you're saying is true, then this wouldn't exist...

Certainly not your twitter grabs.
My 'twitter grabs' are being reported by credible sources from an array of reporters.

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 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.

What you're saying is, commedians should just make jokes and not get involved in politics. Yeah?

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.
 
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.
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.

Where's the proof that anti-Semitism has "ramped up"? You need to provide citations via peer reviewed research for claims like those.

Anti-zionists seem to spend an inordinate amount of effort anti-semiticly explaining why anti-semitism/zionism isn't anti-semitic.

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?

Your sources are Youtube links or blog posts from Zionists.

When I called you up on a blog post from Ayelet Shaked, you posted a perfume ad and said she's good looking.

You can't even defend your points, and your posts are just an embarrassment.

Hasbara aren't paying you enough.

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?
 
posts from @Giggs86 and @Sky1981 have been about as credible as Holocaust denial. Swallowing and reposting Israeli propaganda.



Look, as I've said. I'm on palestinian side on this one. But it is what it is man, propaganda on both sides.

Israel doesn't need a propaganda, they're fine with what they're doing and they believe they did the right thing.

I can't believe I've been sucked in to this godforsaken thread again. Of course it's been ramped up, all you need to do is see some of the rhetorics at pro-Palestinian protests worldwide. It's the same way Islamophobia is ramped up each time there's been a terror attack done under the name of Islam, or how anti-Chinese sentiments are ramped up after Covid.

It's not that hard.

Sorry mate. I'm not defending Hamas. Meanwhile, you're defending a terrorist State that is killing children and accusing others of being anti semetic.
