by Michael West | Jan 23, 2025 | The West Report

Australia’s antisemitism crisis, ‘hasbara’, and the Israel propaganda machine. We investigate the toxic influence of of the war lobby in Australian politics, foreign influence.

This video critiques the Israeli government and its handling of conflicts in Gaza and beyond. It claims that Israel uses aggressive public relations (called “hasbara”) to justify its actions and silence critics. The video discusses how political and media narratives are shaped to focus on issues like anti-Semitism while downplaying other crises, such as domestic violence or oppression in other regions. It highlights perceived hypocrisy and double standards in global politics and calls out Australian media and politics for being influenced by external agendas. The speaker urges more focus on truth, peace, and fair representation in discussions about these issues.
