  SPEAKER_00: Who are these people?
• 0:09
  SPEAKER_01: The Hasbara network and the propaganda network.
• 0:13
  SPEAKER_01: And this is something that I've been talking about.
• 0:15
  SPEAKER_01: This is going to be real short.
• 0:17
  SPEAKER_01: But I felt like this needed its own kind of broken out separate segment
• 0:22
  SPEAKER_01: because there's an article attached to it that Sir Escanor put together.
• 0:25
  SPEAKER_01: And he asks a couple of questions.
• 0:27
  SPEAKER_01: But on top of Sir Escanor, we have this Israel experience.
• 0:33
  SPEAKER_01: The Archive Genocide account also recommended this site
• 0:38
  SPEAKER_01: and said everyone should follow this at Wallface, which I did.
• 0:43
  SPEAKER_01: They've mapped the social media operation of the Hasbara outlet.
• 0:49
  SPEAKER_01: The Hasbara operation,
• 0:50
  SPEAKER_01: the social media wing,
• 0:52
  SPEAKER_01: six contractors,
• 0:54
  SPEAKER_01: 13 websites that they're tied to,
• 0:57
  SPEAKER_01: 38 groups and tools that the diaspora ministry lists
• 1:01
  SPEAKER_01: for supporters using five AI chatbots citing the sites,
• 1:07
  SPEAKER_01: covering 105 organizations and sites, and here's the whole web.
• 1:13
  SPEAKER_01: And it literally breaks down by color coding how the sources are these yellow sources.
• 1:20
  SPEAKER_01: They then spread out to the Orange sources that then disperse out
• 1:24
  SPEAKER_01: to campaign websites like these that are set up by the Orange outlets.
• 1:31
  SPEAKER_01: Then you've got Clock Tower X.
• 1:33
  SPEAKER_01: That's Brad Parscale's operation that we've covered on multiple occasions that is
• 1:39
  SPEAKER_01: a registered foreign agent.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_01: For the state of Israel,
• 1:43
  SPEAKER_01: he set up multiple websites, and we're going to get to a lot of this stuff.
• 1:47
  SPEAKER_01: Then you've got the ministries directory, and that's these blue ones.
• 1:53
  SPEAKER_01: Then you've got Words of Iron and Its Tools.
• 1:57
  SPEAKER_01: That's another app which gives supporters ready-made posts.
• 2:02
  SPEAKER_01: So you remember that copy-paste stuff?
• 2:04
  SPEAKER_01: That's where it comes from, is an app like this, Words of Iron.
• 2:09
  SPEAKER_01: Then you've got directory listings, okay,
• 2:12
  SPEAKER_01: where they're helping each other find each other,
• 2:14
  SPEAKER_01: and there's these listing sites, all right?
• 2:17
  SPEAKER_01: And then you've got Around the Directory,
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_01: which is kind of feeder sites like Reichman University and the UJA Federation
• 2:27
  SPEAKER_01: of New York.
• 2:28
  SPEAKER_01: And finally,
• 2:29
  SPEAKER_01: then you've got the platforms themselves like Wikipedia and Twitter and TikTok,
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_01: Facebook,
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_01: Instagram,
• 2:37
  SPEAKER_01: the social media platforms,
• 2:39
  SPEAKER_01: and how it is a large funnel that starts with money at the government and ends up
• 2:44
  SPEAKER_01: with propaganda disseminated by chatbots onto platforms.
• 2:49
  SPEAKER_01: Here are the people in between that profit and list who's involved.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_01: And this draws direct links, indirect links, etc.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_01: It's complicated.
• 3:05
  SPEAKER_01: So platform compliance with one Israeli non-profit's removal requests over three months.
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_01: So that's just one non-profit removed.
• 3:16
  SPEAKER_01: 74% of the requests were taken down from TikTok.
• 3:20
  SPEAKER_01: Three quarters on YouTube if they get requested.
• 3:24
  SPEAKER_01: So how does this work?
• 3:26
  SPEAKER_01: All right.
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_01: 5,500 requests.
• 3:29
  SPEAKER_01: Over 3,000 of them were on Twitter,
• 3:31
  SPEAKER_01: which removed at least of the least of the big five at 35 percent.
• 3:36
  SPEAKER_01: Gab did not censor anybody.
• 3:38
  SPEAKER_01: The only social media platform not to censor at all.
• 3:43
  SPEAKER_01: All right.
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_01: So.
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_01: I wanted to bring this from Escanor.
• 3:48
  SPEAKER_01: So.
• 3:50
  SPEAKER_01: Think things are fucked up now.
• 3:52
  SPEAKER_01: Wait till after the midterms.
• 3:54
  SPEAKER_01: And he's going to try to read the tea leaves as to... Shit, I'm sorry.
• 3:59
  SPEAKER_01: I thought I had this showing.
• 4:02
  SPEAKER_01: I apologize.
• 4:04
  SPEAKER_01: This, by the way, is the wall face platform that I was just talking about.
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_01: Now I feel terrible.
• 4:13
  SPEAKER_01: From government to the contractors to campaign websites.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_01: I can't blow this up.
• 4:19
  SPEAKER_01: If I do, It doesn't really make it bigger.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_01: I'll have to link this so everybody can see it.
• 4:26
  SPEAKER_01: But it's a massive web that they've mapped out how all of these things are interconnected.
• 4:33
  SPEAKER_01: From the top of the funnel,
• 4:34
  SPEAKER_01: government,
• 4:35
  SPEAKER_01: down to the bottom of the funnel,
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_01: which is platforms and AI chatbots,
• 4:40
  SPEAKER_01: which are flooded with all of the content that is paid for by Israel and generated
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_01: by their agents in Germany,
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_01: in the United States, and of course, also in Israel and everywhere else.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_01: All right.
• 4:57
  SPEAKER_01: Again, I apologize for not showing that earlier.
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_01: But I caught it.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_01: I'm glad I caught it now.
• 5:02
  SPEAKER_01: So let's get back to Sir Escanor, the hopium slayer.
• 5:06
  SPEAKER_01: I'm going to bring an article that he wrote also.
• 5:09
  SPEAKER_01: Things are fucked now.
• 5:11
  SPEAKER_01: Wait till after the midterms.
• 5:13
  SPEAKER_01: Trump's going to bomb Iran and oil spikes, markets crater.
• 5:17
  SPEAKER_01: Democrats took the House on the backlash.
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_01: Trump's going to blame the crash on them.
• 5:22
  SPEAKER_01: They blame the war on him.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_01: Both sides fundraise off the other for two straight years pointing fingers.
• 5:30
  SPEAKER_01: Then quietly, the same Democrats vote the war budget through.
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_01: Then defense contractors post record quarters.
• 5:39
  SPEAKER_01: Then the data centers ramp up.
• 5:41
  SPEAKER_01: The Fed hikes again to fight inflation,
• 5:44
  SPEAKER_01: and your mortgage, your credit card, and your groceries pay for all of it.
• 5:50
  SPEAKER_01: One side lights the match.
• 5:52
  SPEAKER_01: The other side sells you the fire insurance.
• 5:55
  SPEAKER_01: Both of them cash the premium.
• 5:58
  SPEAKER_01: They fight on camera, they split the bill behind it, and the bill always comes to us.
• 6:06
  SPEAKER_01: Okay?
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_01: So he wrote this article that kind of talks about this Hasbara operation.
• 6:14
  SPEAKER_01: And social media.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_01: Israel bought your radio, your influencers, and your church in 10 days.
• 6:21
  SPEAKER_01: Now,
• 6:23
  SPEAKER_01: I also pointed out in the chats here on his page that we covered an article that
• 6:29
  SPEAKER_01: That went through these thorough requests last month from the Arabic Post.
• 6:35
  SPEAKER_01: And this, in some ways, mirrors that, but goes deeper in others.
• 6:40
  SPEAKER_01: Literally, the websites that were created, the messages that were posted, all right, and...
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_01: How they did it through the influencers, the church, the word they took out.
• 6:52
  SPEAKER_01: So all of these different chapters.
• 6:56
  SPEAKER_01: Again, this is an incredibly long and well-sourced article by Sir Escanor.
• 7:02
  SPEAKER_01: So I encourage everyone to go check it out.
• 7:04
  SPEAKER_01: I've got a ton more to cover tonight, but we're not going to do that tonight.
• 7:08
  SPEAKER_01: But if you go to sirescanor.substack.com,
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_01: you can get there,
• 7:13
  SPEAKER_01: and I will link to it in the description Substack post after the show.
• 7:19
  SPEAKER_01: All right.
• 7:20
  SPEAKER_01: So I said that was going to be a short segment.
• 7:24
  SPEAKER_01: I'm going to get to a much longer Fuck Israel segment,
• 7:28
  SPEAKER_01: but I felt like that was almost in a way separate because
• 7:32
  SPEAKER_01: the Hasbara operation is happening all over the world,
• 7:36
  SPEAKER_01: specifically targeted at the United States as opposed to what we're going to talk
• 7:41
  SPEAKER_01: about next,
• 7:42
  SPEAKER_01: which is mostly happening in Israel and in Palestine, occupied Palestine.
• 7:51
  SPEAKER_01: All right.
• 7:52
  SPEAKER_01: But before I get moved to that,
• 7:54
  SPEAKER_01: let's just ask people to please support independent media because we need it more
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_01: than ever.
• 7:59
  SPEAKER_01: You know the ways to do it.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_01: The people who've already done so are up there on that list.
• 8:03
  SPEAKER_01: And I really appreciate it.
• 8:04
  SPEAKER_01: I look at that list every day.
• 8:06
  SPEAKER_01: Cash app, dollar sign, Indie News Network is the easiest way to do it with no fees.
• 8:11
  SPEAKER_01: Code-fee.com slash Indie News Network has minimal fees,
• 8:14
  SPEAKER_01: but pops something up on screen live while we're live.
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_01: The website that you can go to where you find a lot of these articles linked is
• 8:22
  SPEAKER_01: at IndieNewsNow.com, including, by the way, the Sir Eskinor article.
• 8:27
  SPEAKER_01: You can find that at IndieNewsNow.com and then link to it on his sub stack.
• 8:31
  SPEAKER_01: That's got an RSS feed with over 100 different publications and outlets,
• 8:36
  SPEAKER_01: bringing that happen 24-7 real time.
• 8:39
  SPEAKER_01: And you can also tip the network to a Keep the Media Free section over there.
• 8:44

• 8:47

  SPEAKER_01: even though I hope you don't leave a Rumble rant.
• 8:55
  SPEAKER_01: Some people do.
• 8:56
  SPEAKER_01: They take 50% off the top before Stripe gets their cut.
• 8:59
  SPEAKER_01: Or PayPal.
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_01: So please try to support through another way.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_01: I appreciate if you do it.
• 9:05
  SPEAKER_01: Any way you want to support.
• 9:07
  SPEAKER_01: But also, again, share.
• 9:09
  SPEAKER_01: Share the show because we're heavily suppressed.
• 9:11
  SPEAKER_01: Kurt Boss was saying that the clips,
• 9:14
  SPEAKER_01: he couldn't find any of the segments or clips that the show was heavily suppressed
• 9:19
  SPEAKER_01: in the algorithm.
• 9:20
  SPEAKER_01: And he watches on a regular basis.
• 9:23
  SPEAKER_01: All right, so indiemediatoday.com over on Substack is mine.
