IAK NOTE: Below is an excerpt from a deeply researched report that reveals the network of strategists, their campaigns, and the purchase of influencers’ loyalties that lie behind pro-Israel manipulation projects saturating our media. Click on the link to read the full report
Recent documents and records reveal the rise of an influential network in Washington, largely led by the architects of aggressive election campaigns from both the Republican and Democratic parties, who describe themselves as “digital strategists.” Through companies they own, they manage propaganda and influence campaigns on behalf of “Israel,” which have been active since the beginning of the Gaza war, directing influencers, public relations firms, and traditional media to advance the Israeli narrative in response to the rising Palestinian narrative.
Numerous media reports have discussed the role of American public relations firms in promoting Israeli propaganda since the Gaza war. However, this investigation more comprehensively traces what can be described as the “masterminds behind manipulation projects,” who have placed their expertise in “algorithm manipulation” and big data at the disposal of the Israeli government in exchange for multimillion-dollar contracts.
Relying on official U.S. records, Arabic Post delves deeper into a complex network of companies, intermediaries, and funders, whereCommentHighlight digital targeting tactics that brought Donald Trump to the White House have been transformed into a machine working on behalf of the government in Tel Aviv to reshape American public opinion in favor of the Israeli narrative, or “digital Hasbara.” “Hasbara” is the Israeli term for the country’s official public relations and public diplomacy strategy abroad, and the mechanism it uses to justify its actions, defend its policies, and improve its image before the world.
Under the umbrella of global public relations firms acting as trusted “prime contractors,” legal and financial cover is provided to a network of subsidiary companies specializing in high-tech “manipulation projects,” turning “spontaneous opinion” on social media platforms into a paid commodity and into integrated propaganda campaigns serving Israel.
This investigation traces the threads of this network and its interconnections by examining records under the U.S. Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), administered by the U.S. Department of Justice—starting from the (Israeli) funder, to the intermediary (subcontracting companies), to the executor (American companies), and the contracts concluded among these parties from the beginning of the war on Gaza until the publication of these lines, noting that some of these companies were in fact established after 2023, that is, after the start of the war.
