+US president’s remarks to Time magazine about PM’s role in conflict draw
Asked by Time magazine if he thinks that “Netanyahu is prolonging the war for his own political self-preservation”,
Biden responds that “There is every reason for people to draw that conclusion.”
So why is Biden funding, arming, and enabling Netanyahu’s prolonging of the war?

Biden made the remarks about the Israeli prime minister in an interview with Time magazine published on Tuesday morning, drawing a sharp response from the Israeli government, which accused the US president of straying from diplomatic norms.
(...)
In response, the Israeli government spokesperson, David Mencer, said Biden’s remarks about Netanyahu and Israeli politics were “outside the diplomatic norms of every right-thinking country”.
We can assume then that Joe is now an anti-Semite (?) Noo, is only in the midst of a presidential campaign, but we can assume that
Nikki Haley and
Trump's team will solve this system maintenance problem. (Nikki Haley link in the
Alejo post)
Well, the chain of command puts these are the system maintenance technicians whom you can label as "diaspora", whatever that means, doing what they were taught to do, in this case masking customer involvement, outsourcing the work to private companies or doing it through a third country. So it all seems natural, beautiful and sustainable.
+ Israel Secretly Targets U.S. Lawmakers With Influence Campaign on Gaza War
investigation has found that Israel's
Ministry of Diaspora organised and paid for an influence campaign last year targeting US lawmakers and the American public with "pro-Israel messaging", and calls for supporting Israel amid the war on Gaza.
The report finds that the ministry allocated about $2m to the operation and hired
Stoic, a political marketing firm in Tel Aviv, to carry it out. At its peak, the campaign
used hundreds of fake accounts posed as real Americans on X, Facebook and Instagram to post pro-Israel comments.
The campaign focused on
US lawmakers, particularly those who are Black and Democrats, such as
"Representative Hakeem Jeffries, the House minority leader from New York, and Senator Raphael Warnock of Georgia, with posts urging them to continue funding Israel’s military".
ChatGPT, the artificial intelligence-powered chatbot, was used to generate many of the posts. The campaign also created three English-language news sites publishing pro-Israel content.
Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, has
"disrupted the operation" since last week, according to the Times.
On its LinkedIn page, Stoic has promoted its ability to run campaigns backed by A.I. “As we look ahead, it’s clear that A.I.’s role in political campaigns is set for a transformative leap, reshaping the way campaigns are strategized, executed and evaluated,” it wrote.
By Friday, Stoic had removed those posts from LinkedIn.
Israel’s Ministry of Diaspora Affairs ordered the operation, which used fake social media accounts urging U.S. lawmakers to fund Israel’s military, according to officials and documents about the effort.
