Propaganda has always been Israel’s superpower, and they’re doing a terrible job of it.

They're using the exact same kind of messaging they're using internally to their own right-wing and scared centre, "tough guys making hard decisions to keep you safe" kind of stuff. To people who went on school trips to Auschwitz with armed Israeli security -- not because visiting Poland wouldn't be safe, but out of a mixture of security theatre and propaganda. It just doesn't work if you aren't part of that particular information bubble. They seem to have forgotten that it doesn't even work on the Israeli left wing so why should it work on random people from elsewhere.

Also stunts like the yellow stars in the security council. Come the fuck on crocodile-teared self-victimisation can't possibly be more blatant, and it's fucking disgusting how they trivialise the Holocaust with that shit.
