The Hidden Hand in the Times of Israel:

Front page, as it were, in the Times of Israel!

Quote: "Shortly after the Hamas atrocities of October 7, 2023, Warren Kinsella began noticing what he considered the fingerprints of a professional propaganda campaign. A Canadian political strategist who has worked for decades in war rooms advising prime ministers and political campaigns in Canada, the United States and Israel, Kinsella makes that case in his new book, “The Hidden Hand: The Information War and the Rise of Antisemitic Propaganda.”

"...Kinsella has spent more than 30 years in the trenches fighting against hate. He has confronted Aryan Nations fanatics — who jammed a rifle into his chest — dealt with bomb threats and firebomb plots, fended off lawsuits from Holocaust deniers and helped put neo-Nazi propagandists behind bars. His earlier books, “Unholy Alliances” and “Web of Hate,” document the far right’s evolution from street gangs to online networks."

"...The success of the hate messaging now means Israel has a lot of catching up to do, Kinsella believes.

“I love Israel. I love these Israeli people, but they have done a bad job at communicating how wonderful Israel is and how tolerant and diverse Israel is,” Kinsella said. “We need to show those kids that Israel is, in fact, a diverse, pluralistic, tolerant, democratic nation surrounded by tyranny and dictatorships.”

“Since 1948, but also a continual war since October 7, they’ve just not had the bandwidth to move themselves to fight this propaganda war,” he said. “The time is now to turn its mind to doing that, because, as you can see around Western democracies, Israel is losing the information war.”
