Das erste Foto bezieht sich auf „Explosion in der Raffinerie in Teheran“ und das zweite Foto bezieht sich auf „Bombenanschlag auf Beirut“.
Das Video hat nichts mit Israels Angriff auf den Iran zu tun. Der Film handelt von den israelischen Angriffen auf Beirut in den vergangenen Tagen.
Ein „Bürgerrat“ für „Maßnahmen gegen Desinformation“ hat die „Prüfung einer strafrechtlichen Verfolgung und/oder Sanktionierung der Verbreitung von Desinformation“ empfohlen, außerdem solle ein freiwilliges Gütesiegel für „qualitativen Journalismus“ eingeführt werden, wie Medien berichten. Eine „unabhängige Stelle“ solle für das Siegel Kriterien entwickeln und es an Verlage und Medienhäuser vergeben, heißt es im „Bürgergutachten zum Umgang mit Desinformation“, das am Donnerstag Bundesinnenministerin Nancy Faeser übergeben wurde, wie Bertelsmann in einer Mitteilung erklärte.
Weitere Vorschläge des Rates sind unter anderem eine Überprüfung von Beiträgen durch Künstliche Intelligenz (KI), bevor diese veröffentlicht werden; verpflichtende Lektionen zu „Medienkompetenz“ bei Elternabenden; ein („beispielsweise von Correctiv“) erstelltes „Desinformationsranking“ und viele andere

Just one example: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denounced the Palestinians as “Amalek” – a reference to a biblical story well known to every Israeli schoolchild, in which the Israelites are ordered by God to wipe an entire people, including their children and livestock, off the face of the earth.
Anyone engaged on social media will have faced a battery of similarly genocidal statements from mostly anonymous supporters of Israel.
Those genocide cheerleaders recently gained a face – two, in fact. Video clips of two Israelis, podcasting in English under the name “Two Nice Jewish Boys”, have gone viral, showing the pair calling for the extermination of every last Palestinian man, woman and child.
One of the podcasters said that “zero people in Israel” care whether a polio outbreak caused by Israel’s destruction of Gaza’s water, sewage and heath facilities ends up killing babies, noting that Israel’s agreement to a vaccination campaign is driven purely by public relations needs.
In another clip, the podcasters agree that Palestinian hostages in Israeli prisons deserve to be “executed by shoving too large of an object up their butts”.
They also make clear that they would not hesitate to press a genocide button to wipe out the Palestinian people: “If you gave me a button to just erase Gaza – every single living being in Gaza would no longer be living tomorrow – I would press it in a second … And I think most Israelis would. They wouldn’t talk about it like I am, they wouldn’t say ‘I pressed it’, but they would press it.”
One very important task we can undertake as citizens of the western empire is to help de-normalize the tyranny, murderousness and savagery that the imperial propagandists work to normalize.
(…)
Denormalize poverty.
Denormalize injustice and inequality.
Denormalize the ruined buildings and ruined bodies in Gaza.
Denormalize the nuclear brinkmanship with Russia.
Denormalize the destruction of our biosphere in the ravages of ecocidal capitalism.
Denormalize the surging authoritarianism we’re experiencing as the empire works frantically to stomp out dissent.
Denormalize the war machinery rolling out around the world, and the increasingly militarized police forces in our streets.
Denormalize the psychopathy of the politicians and government officials who cheerfully serve the empire in facilitation of these horrors.
Denormalize the way media and government institutions controlled by the powerful work to manipulate the way we think and perceive every day of our fucking lives for the benefit of the powerful.
Wie ein Polizeisprecher dem rbb sagte, hatten sich etwa 300 Personen zunächst zu einer unangemeldeten Kundgebung im Ehrenhof der HU zusammengefunden. Weil es wiederholt volksverhetzende Parolen gegeben habe, seien demnach knapp 40 Freiheitsbeschränkungen eingeleitet worden, um Personalien aufzunehmen. Dabei habe es auch Widerstand und tätliche Angriffe auf Polizeibeamte gegeben.

When CIA-trained terrorists tried to overthrow the Sandinista government in the 1980s, the left erupted in protest. Now the left is cheering for the CIA.
A copy of the „90-page psychological warfare manual“ produced by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency for Nicaraguan rebels in the late 1970s or early 1980s
(18.12.2017)
During the U.S. government‘s decade-long support of the Contra rebels who waged an armed campaign against Nicaragua’s leftist Sandinista regime in the 1980s, the CIA funneled all manner of assistance to the anti-socialist “freedom fighters,” from training and financial assistance to covert operations. The original “advise and assist” mission was a disaster in retrospect, spurring all manner of human rights violations as well as the modern crack cocaine scourge. But the CIA aid program’s most fascinating product might be the batshit crazy psychological warfare manual cooked up for the Nicaraguan counter-revolutionaries.

The expansive and experimental effort is being used to conduct mass surveillance there, collecting and cataloging the faces of Palestinians without their knowledge or consent, according to Israeli intelligence officers, military officials and soldiers.
The technology was initially used in Gaza to search for Israelis who were taken hostage by Hamas during the Oct. 7 cross-border raids, the intelligence officials said.
The Matryoshka campaign takes a different approach.
Instead of sharing the fake news pieces themselves, accounts re-share posts from other accounts in the same network, and post them directly on the feeds of known fact-checking outlets. These “reshares” are formulated as a fact-checking request.
The accounts simulate the behaviour of a typical social media user, who might be sceptical of a piece of news, and would like the opinion of a trusted fact-checking source.
However, this process of resharing is repeated by other accounts in the network, ad nauseam. The “stacking” of posts containing false news reports is akin to how Matryoshka dolls operate, which is where the campaign gets its name from.
Nach Schravens Drohung stellt sich erstens die Frage: Wenn Correctiv über gerichtsfeste Belege verfügt, wer auf dem Treffen mit welcher wörtlichen Formulierung aufgetreten war – warum finden sich diese wörtlichen Zitate dann nicht in dem Correctiv-Artikel? Bis jetzt wurden sie auch nicht nachgereicht.
Und zweitens: Warum rückt Correctiv nicht spätestens jetzt damit heraus? Da die eidesstattlichen Versicherungen der Teilnehmer schon Teil des Verfahrens sind, müsste Correctiv nicht erst bis zur Gerichtsverhandlung damit warten, gleich sieben Teilnehmer des Treffens einer Straftat zu überführen.

Die Covid-19 Impfstoffe wurden nie auf Infektionschutz getestet. Fast drei Jahre nach Impfstart fällt der EMA auf, dass die Covid-19 modRNA Impfstoffe nie auf Fremdschutz hin überprüft wurden.
Dies geht aus einem Schreiben der EMA auf eine Anfrage von Europaparlamentarier vom 18.11.2023 hervor. Die EMA Behörde gibt zum ersten Mal zu, dass die Covid-19 Impfstoffe keine Impfstoffe im eigentlichen Sinne sind und nicht vor Ansteckung und Weitergabe schützen.
Die Frage stellt sich nun: Was wussten die Regierungen? Seit wann? Wie konnten (Teil-)Impfpflicht und 2/3-G-Maßnahmen gefordert und durchgesetzt werden?

Ist man eigentlich noch bei klarem Verstand, wenn man behauptet, dass es die Demokratie fördert, wenn die Regierung per „Demokratiefördergesetz“ ermächtigt und beauftragt wird, Geld an behördlich ausgewählte „zivilgesellschaftliche“ Organisationen zu geben, damit diese Oppositionsparteien und oppositionelle Medien bekämpfen? Die (wohl mangels ausreichender Demokratieförderung) in den Hessenwahlen krachend gescheiterte Bundesinnenministerin Nancy Faeser meint Ja.
Im Dezember 2022 hatten Feaser (SPD) und die Ministerin für Familie, Senioren, Frauen und Jugend, Lisa Paus (Grüne) den Entwurf eines Demokratiefördergesetzes vorgestellt, mit dem „Populisten und Extremisten“ bekämpft werden sollen, die „versuchen besonders in Krisenzeiten, unsere offene, plurale Gesellschaft zu spalten“.
Bisher haben sie dafǘr zum Glück keine Mehrheit im Bundestag zustande gebracht. Doch nun, angesichts der Demonstrationen gegen die AfD, wittert Faeser Morgenluft und versucht es erneut.

Am 16.11.2022 ist die Verordnung (EU) 2022/2065 des Europäischen Parlaments und des Rates vom 19.10.2022 über den Binnenmarkt für digitale Dienste (Digital Services Act – im Folgenden DSA genannt) in Kraft getreten.
Sie gilt spätestens ab dem 17.02.2024 unmittelbar in jedem EU-Mitgliedstaat in erster Linie für „sehr große Online-Plattformen und sehr große Online-Suchmaschinen“ (Art. 33 Abs. 4, Art. 92, 93 Abs. 2 DSA).
Diese werden unter Androhung empfindlicher finanzieller Sanktionen verpflichtet, alle ihre Inhalte zu kontrollieren und gegebenenfalls zu löschen. Und sie werden dabei kontrolliert von der EU-Kommission, von staatlichen Koordinatoren und von zivilgesellschaftlichen Hinweisgebern.
Trotz seiner unmittelbaren Geltung im deutschen Recht bedarf der DSA eines konkretisierenden nationalen Ausführungsgesetzes. Ein Entwurf dieses Digitale-Dienste-Gesetzes (DDG-Entwurf) wurde von der Bundesregierung am 20.12.2023 verabschiedet.
Beraten und beschlossen werden soll er im Bundestag vor dem 17.02.2024.
(…)
In Erwägungsgrund Nr. 5 wird schon zwischen der „Vermittlung und Verbreitung rechtswidriger oder anderweitig schädlicher Informationen und Tätigkeiten“ unterschieden (Hervorhebung d. Verf.). Auch Art. 34 Abs. 1 DSA spricht in Abs. 1 a von der „Verbreitung rechtswidriger Inhalte über ihre Dienste“, in Abs. 1 b-d allerdings nur noch von Informationen mit „nachteiligen Auswirkungen“, die nicht rechtswidrig sein müssen.
(…)
Im Zentrum, jedenfalls des nationalstaatlichen Geschehens, steht der von jedem Mitgliedstaat bis zum 17.02.2024 zu ernennende „Koordinator für digitale Dienste“ (KdD).
In dem Video sagt die gebürtige Freiburgerin: Wir müssen den „Einsatz gegen Fake News und Verschwörungsmythen intensivieren, indem wir die Vernetzungen der verschiedenen Akteure offenlegen. Wir brauchen weitere konkrete Maßnahmen, wie zum Beispiel eine virtuelle Polizeiwache, sodass jede Bürgerin, jeder Bürger Hass, Hetze, Beleidigungen, Bedrohungen, Antisemitismus bequem und einfach von zu Hause aus vom Sofa aus anzeigen kann. Wir müssen unsere Sicherheitsbehörden gut ausstatten, damit sie den Fahndungs- und den Ermittlungsdruck auf die rechte Szene erhöhen, dass sie die digitalen Machenschaften noch besser in den Blick nehmen können. Wir sollten darüber diskutieren, ob eine Prüfung eines AfD-Verbots nicht sinnvoll wäre. Auch davor sollten wir uns nicht scheuen…….“

US President Joe Biden and Western media pundits echoed Israel‘s disinformation casting doubt on the Palestinian health ministry death toll in Gaza, but Israeli intelligence officials have admitted it is accurate. Ben Norton looks at the evidence.
Despite Biden’s claims, Gaza health ministry death toll is accurate, scientific studies show:

„Hamas once again made cruel use of innocent people,“ the IDF spokesman said in his statement Monday night. He denied Hamas‘ claim that they were hit by IDF airstrikes.
„The building where they were held was not a target, and it was not attacked by our forces. We did not know their location in real time, but we don‘t attack a place where we know that there might be hostages. In retrospect, we know that we attacked targets near the place where they were held.“

The Post’s analysis shows:
– The rooms connected to the tunnel network discovered by IDF troops showed no immediate evidence of military use by Hamas.
– None of the five hospital buildings identified by Hagari appeared to be connected to the tunnel network.
– There is no evidence that the tunnels could be accessed from inside hospital wards.
Hours before IDF troops entered the complex, the Biden administration declassified U.S. intelligence assessments that it said bolstered Israel’s claims. In the aftermath of the raid, Israeli and U.S. officials have stood firm behind their initial statements.
The Israeli raid on al-Shifa Hospital last month, which was preceded by an evacuation order aimed at thousands of people sheltering at the hospital and hundreds of sick patients, produced one of the grisliest scenes in the country’s ground invasion of the Gaza Strip: a “death zone” that included a mass grave at the entrance of the hospital and dozens of desperate patients inside, according to the World Health Organization, whose aid workers arrived at the facility on Nov. 18 as part of a humanitarian mission.
Forty patients, including four premature babies, died in the hospital due to a lack of electricity in the days surrounding the raid, hospital administrators told the United Nations.
Imagine if Biden wins with Trump banned or jailed: US sermons about „democracy,“ or condemning Putin imprisoning Navalny, will be seen as an even bigger joke than now.
One of the West‘s key dissidents (Assange) is jailed. They censor dissent. Now they‘re trying to ban Trump.
It‘s always been a huge propagandistic mystery that the US media succeeds in convincing Americans that the US Govt defends freedom as it props up the worst dictators (Saudi, Egypt, etc.).
They‘re now escalating it in desperation: first after 2016, now seeing Trump/Biden polls.
Fear of free populations is a global trend. In Brazil, they imprisoned Lula in 2018 when leading all polls, then banned Bolsonaro from running.
In Pakistan, CIA engineered removal and imprisonment of Imran Khan.
All Western countries are increasing online speech controls.
Die deutschen Sicherheitsbehörden erfuhren nach Informationen von ARD-Hauptstadtstudio und SWR von einem ausländischen Nachrichtendienst von dem mutmaßlichen Anschlagsplan. Die Beschuldigten wurden daraufhin identifiziert, abgehört und observiert. Eine konkrete Anschlagsplanung hat es offenbar noch nicht gegeben.
Dies sei die Antwort auf die Flut Tausender Bilder und Videos der Gräueltaten der Hamas, sagt Ron Schleifer, Experte für psychologische Kriegsführung an der Ariel Universität. Er vergleicht die Methoden der Hamas am 7. Oktober mit denen des mongolischen Anführers Dschingis Khan.
(…)
„Die Hamas setzt darauf, den Willen des Feindes – also Israels – mit Hilfe von Angst und Schrecken zu brechen“, so Schleifer.

Das Ziel war, dass wir uns alle unsicher fühlen, dass wir denken, sie können uns erreichen nicht nur in unserem Land, sondern auch zu Hause, sogar in unseren Bunkern.
This is depraved on many levels; forcing civilians to strip & stand almost completely naked at gun point & filming/posting this for a victory image
2\ The IDF appears to have done TWO takes of Munir’s video, forcing him to walk forward TWICE with a rifle in the air towards them as the rest of the crowd were forced to stand frightened with their arms & IDs up, fearing to be sprayed with bullets had they made one wrong move!
Meanwhile, an Israeli soldier is yelling at them in Arabic: “Khabibi, grab the gun I gave you, but don’t shoot it, we don’t want trouble and march slowly carrying it and put it on the other side on the ground”.
The man forced to carry the gun is Moin Qeshta Al-Masry, owner of an aluminum workshop, who fled to Al-Khalifa school in Beit Lahya, from where he was kidnapped with the others.

Der älteste Sohn von Benjamin Netanyahu betreibt in den sozialen Medien gezielte Desinformation.

Marah Bakeer, a student in her last year of high school (Tawjihi), insisted to her friend, Asma’a Elkhatib, to join her family to take lunch at her home. At first, Asma’a refused her friend’s invitation, but after many attempts of convincing her, she had eventually accepted Marah’s request.
On the way home … The two 16-year old girls, wearing their dark blue uniform, and school bags on their backs, left the bus at the entrance of Beit Hannina town, and were excitedly talking about their school life and the crucial year they have to pass; to move to college and build up their future.
In the midst of their talk, the Israeli forces stopped them at the main road of the town. One of the soldiers came close to them, and fired twelve bullets towards Marah’s small body, while he was shouting “Subversive .. subversive!”.
Asma’a freaked out and had no idea about what to do or where to go when she saw her friend Marah covered with blood, crying, while the soldiers were only watching her bleeding.
Marah was left bleeding till she lost consciousness; then the soldiers moved her to the Israeli hospital Hadassah to receive medical treatment, while her friend Asma’a was finally able to escape. This was on 10.12.2015 at noon.
(…)
Israel claims that “Marah”, who lives in a family of five members, was holding a knife in her hand to stab one of the soldiers who were in the place of the accident. However, their story was denied by Asma’a and a group of students who were in the place at the time of the incident. Also, a video tape was published and widely shared via social media showing Marah screaming and crying with no knife near her.
The mother refused the accusations made against her daughter that she tried to stab an Israeli soldier; and said during our phone call with her: “My daughter is dreaming of getting the university certificate; to make us proud of her, and all the Israeli accusations are totally refused”

Presumably as a result of the increasing challenge to the Warren Commission‘s report, a public opinion poll recently indicated that 46% of the American public did not think that Oswald acted alone, while more than half of those polled thought that the Commission had left some questions unresolved. Doubtless polls abroad would show similar, or possibly more adverse results.
(…)
Innuendo of such seriousness affects not only the individual concerned, but also the whole reputation of the American government. Our organization itself is directly involved: among other facts, we contributed information to the investigation. Conspiracy theories have frequently thrown suspicion on our organization, for example by falsely alleging that Lee Harvey Oswald worked for us. The aim of this dispatch is to provide material countering and discrediting the claims of the conspiracy theorists, so as to inhibit the circulation of such claims in other countries. Background information is supplied in a classified section and in a number of unclassified attachments.
3. Action. We do not recommend that discussion of the assassination question be initiated where it is not already taking place. Where discussion is active, however, addresses are requested:
a. To discuss the publicity problem with liaison and friendly elite contacts (especially politicians and editors), pointing out that the Warren Commission made as thorough an investigation as humanly possible, that the charges of the critics are without serious foundation, and that further speculative discussion only plays into the hands of the opposition. Point out also that parts of the conspiracy talk appear to be deliberately generated by Communist propagandists. Urge them to use their influence to discourage unfounded and irresponsible speculation.
b. To employ propaganda assets to answer and refute the attacks of the critics. Book reviews and feature articles are particularly appropriate for this purpose. The unclassified attachments to this guidance should provide useful background material for passing to assets. Our ploy should point out, as applicable, that the critics are (I) wedded to theories adopted before the evidence was in, (I) politically interested, (III) financially interested, (IV) hasty and inaccurate in their research, or (V) infatuated with their own theories.
(…)
4. In private to media discussions not directed at any particular writer, or in attacking publications which may be yet forthcoming, the following arguments should be useful:
a. No significant new evidence has emerged which the Commission did not consider. The assassination is sometimes compared (e.g., by Joachim Joesten and Bertrand Russell) with the Dreyfus case; however, unlike that case, the attack on the Warren Commission have produced no new evidence, no new culprits have been convincingly identified, and there is no agreement among the critics. (A better parallel, though an imperfect one, might be with the Reichstag fire of 1933, which some competent historians (Fritz Tobias, AJ.P. Taylor, D.C. Watt) now believe was set by Vander Lubbe on his own initiative, without acting for either Nazis or Communists; the Nazis tried to pin the blame on the Communists, but the latter have been more successful in convincing the world that the Nazis were to blame.)

You probably have two questions now. First, why should Gaza‘s residents suffer? Well, they are to blame for this situation just like Germany‘s residents were to blame for electing Hitler as their leader and paid a heavy price for that, and rightfully so. (…)
We are dealing with an enemy state, not with a terror organization which is seemingly operating from within an innocent civilian population.
Only when we put things on the level between states or between people, we will be able to create real deterrence or defeat the enemy when the next conflict erupts.
The sweet faces of children make an incongruous accompaniment to the genocidal lyrics of the so-called Friendship Song 2023.
“Autumn night falls over the beach of Gaza, planes are bombing, destruction, destruction,” the children sing in angelic voices. “Within a year we will annihilate everyone, and then we will return to plow our fields.”
The lyrics were translated for The Electronic Intifada by independent writer and filmmaker David Sheen and you can watch a subtitled video of the song above, or in the tweet below:
