More of a diplomatic crisis between Israel and the entire rest of world, really.
Founded in 1988, Arutz Sheva (Channel 7), also known in English as Israel National News, is an Israeli media network identifying with Religious Zionism.
Editorially, they promote a strong pro-Israeli Zionist bias. Further, they report favorably on Prime Minister Netanyahu; Netanyahu sounds off on Bennett: ‘Too soft on Iran’. Finally, Arutz Sheva was found by Reuters to have used a deepfake photo for one of their journalists.
Lol, “media bias fact check”. MFBC is not a reliable source especially when it talks about Israel. They are merely a bunch of Anti-semites.
This Israeli propaganda belongs somewhere other than Lemmy. There’s no greater diplomatic crisis between Israel and Ireland than there is with any of the other countries that have recognised Palestine’s statehood, it’s just that Ireland is small economy, and home to a lot of American tech giants, so (Israel thinks) might be easier to push around. Good luck with that.
Anyone throwing around terms “Israeli propaganda” need to check themselves. It’s nothing more than an emotionally charged anti-Semitic dog whistle. It basically relies on this false stereotype that since Israel is a Jewish state, and Jewish people are inherently manipulative or deceitful, Israel must not be telling the truth. It is nothing more than the same anti-semitism used for centuries to marginalize and demonize Jews.

This almost supremacist rhetoric. With the implication being that the Israeli government due to its superiority over others is inherently incapable of being manipulative or deceitful and any claims to the contrary are anti-antisemitism.
One could interpret this as a racist take.
