Breaking: Israel announces a dramatic expansion to its ‘Hasbara’ (propaganda) operations in 2025 budget. The Foreign Ministry will receive an additional $150 million on top of its existing budget, marking a staggering 20-fold increase in funding for “consciousness warfare” activities compared to previous years.
This massive increase is aimed at reshaping international opinion through aggressive propaganda campaigns targeting American college campuses, social media platforms, and the foreign press. The effort will be coordinated with American Jewish organizations and the Diaspora Affairs Ministry.
See below for a prime example of the type of Hasbara this funding will be directed towards. The video, initially shared by COGAT, Israeli government’s body for coordinating aid into Gaza, and amplified by prominent ‘Hasbarist,’ Hen Mazzig, claims to show close-up footage of “Hamas terrorists” in civilian clothing planting explosives to destroy a hospital in northern Gaza.
This release coincides with global sentiment turning against Israel for burning down Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza, abducting its director, and sending him to one of its notorious prisons to be tortured.
Over the past three months, Drop Site News has extensively documented Israel’s relentless assaults on the remaining hospitals in the north of the territory, part of a broader campaign to deprive Palestinians of healthcare while indiscriminately bombing civilians in a push to forcibly expel them from their homes and ethnically cleanse the region.
It should come as little surprise then that Avi Cohen-Scali, Director General of Israel’s Ministry of Diaspora and Combating Antisemitism, said a decade of multimillion-dollar hasbara campaigns against “delegitimization” have yielded “nearly zero results.”
“This activity has failed by every conceivable parameter,” he said.
