Israeli regime spends $50 million in US on propaganda campaign: Report
The Israeli regime has reportedly spent tens of millions of dollars in the United States on a propaganda campaign aimed at improving its unpopular image.
According to a report by the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) on Sunday, the Zionist regime is funding a $50mn US influence campaign using AI-driven texts and conservative media to improve its notorious public image.
The large-scale influence campaign launched nationwide aims at improving the Israeli regime’s tarnished reputation among the American public as support continues to decline, particularly among younger people.
The WSJ report reveals that millions of people in America are receiving AI-generated texts sent from names such as “Emma,” “Sarah,” and “John,” as well as messages from groups with names like “Friends for Peace” and “Partners in Peace.”
These messages include questions and talking points that promote the Israeli regime as a strategic US ally, while redirecting the recipients to content supportive of the Tel Aviv regime.
The report added that the Israeli-funded propaganda campaign is being led by Clock Tower X, headed by Brad Parscale, the former digital director of Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and campaign manager for his 2020 presidential campaign.
Parscale receives $1.5 million a month from the global ad agency, Havas, on behalf of the Israeli regime to run the pro-Israeli influencer campaign.
The WSJ reported that the campaign aimed to prevent young conservatives from becoming critical of the Israeli regime, and criticize Trump’s ceasefire with Iran, instead.
Last year, a prominent young conservative activist named Charlie Kirk, who planned to exit the pro-Israeli lobby, was assassinated. Kirk, once a dedicated pro-Trump and pro-Israel lobbyist, had explicitly revealed before his death that he had chosen to leave the lobby after expressing frustration at its extensive grip and efforts to influence American politics, including his own political activities. On September 10, 2015, Kirk was assassinated when a single shot targeted him as he was sitting under a tent during a campus debate at Utah Valley University in the city of Orem.
US political commentator, Cadence Owens, confirmed that Kirk had been “very clear” and “very explicit” about his frustration with the pro-Israeli lobby and had chosen to “leave the pro-Israel lobby” two days before his assassination, dealing a heavy blow to the Israeli regime’s reputation.
