Don't do this. Not only is your response actually antisemitic, but relating Israeli and Zionist policy to Judaism is exactly what Netanyahu is doing in order to be able to play the anti semitism card. If you are against Israel's actions, fight to make it clear that it is not the same as Judaism and support the Jewish people that speak out against Zionism and the Israeli government.

After later being a soldier for Israel and a “freelance strategy consultant” who co-produced a propaganda podcast with a member of the IOF’s social media team, Keller-Lynn later was published by the Wall Street Journal, covering Israel. Then, she obtained an intelligence dossier from Israel—and published damaging information about Israel’s avowed enemy the week the ICJ ordered it to pull back.

A few days later, Channel 4 in Britain got the dossier and said it contained “no evidence” to support Israel’s “explosive new claim” that “around 190 Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorist operatives” had worked as UNRWA employees and “more than 10 staffers took part in the events of 7th of October.” But by then the damage was done: UNRWA had lost hundreds of millions of funding. There is no telling when, or if, it will come back.

How was anything reported by Keller-Lynn ever “objective” news journalism?

The dossier mentioned in the WSJ article (an article authored by a known Israeli propagandist, for the record) did not contain any evidence supporting the claim that was made

I also advice you to read this, and consider the impact such propaganda has on real people. Real human beings. https://x.com/RnaudBertrand/status/1754881912550646078

Do you really want to be on that side of history? Do you want to look back on your life when you are on your deathbed and realize you supported the slaughter of tens- to hundreds of thousands of human beings just like you and me, based on lies and deception? And to have further spread and supported these lies?

The main activities of UN Watch

Monitor UN activities, resolutions, or official statements that are construed to be critical of Israel.[4]

Lobby for the removal of UN personnel who are considered critical of Israel[5]

Forming coalitions to leverage influence at the UN. This also entails assisting the interests of other groups to later count on their support.[6]

Lobby for the inclusion of AJC approved personnel; this is a standard operating procedure by the American Jewish Committee[7]

From https://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/UN_Watch

UN Watch is very much still Israeli propaganda, or rather a lobbying organisation

I stand corrected.

Had a look at their articles, it's still shameless pro-Israel propaganda though.

And water is wet.

Anyone believing any story coming from the Israeli media is stupidly naive. They have been using their propaganda and desinformation for decades to influence foreign populations and governments, especially their allies, into supporting them. It's vile.

PMW believes that the key to the future is peace education. Our research, however, shows that Palestinian children have not been given that key. More than three decades since the signing of the Oslo Accords, the Palestinian Authority is still actively poisoning the minds of its children with hate.

Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) is a non-profit Israeli research institute

You can come back to me when you have a source that not blatantly Israeli propaganda

Yes, they keep Palestinians alive, thereby slowing down Israels mission to kill them all and therefore prolonging the conflict.

In truth, it was a political decision to appease members of the public who hate Israel based on misinformation and biased media coverage of the war.

I don't hate Israel. I do hate that they use organisations such as UK Lawyers for Israel to manipulate foreign policies of other nations to support their crimes

Curious to see what the Dutch government will do. They have been one of the most loyal lapdogs of the US and Israel, but with the ICC being in The Hague, going against it is not a pretty look either.

We also have a court that has ordered we can't deliver F-35 parts because it's likely they will be used to commit war crimes, and the government is fighting that order. I imagine the ICC saying the same will not help their case.

I want to see the Israel apologists come up with an excuse for this. This is fucked up and anyone who thinks there's a legitimate reason for this is a psycho.

Israelis doing whatever they can to make the word "antisemitic" lose all of its value.
