EXPOSING THE JEWISH TROLLS RESPONSIBLE FOR SOCIAL MEDIA ATTACKS AND CENSORSHIP
EXPOSING THE JEWISH TROLLS RESPONSIBLE FOR SOCIAL MEDIA ATTACKS AND CENSORSHIP
Are you one of the many activists who have recently been attacked,
censored, or even banned from social media sites? The people behind
this attack are Jewish trolls. This article is an important read because
it gives us insights into the way these dark forces operate. A must
read. Please share. Source Article: A Guide To HASBARA TROLLS http://crazzfiles.com/a-guide-to-hasbara-trolls/
WW~Update: Apparently, the original post has been removed
from the internet, however, you can find the entire article on other
sites but not the images that were attached to the original post. At
the time I posted the article on Pragmatic Witness I failed to include
Gilad Atzmon’s inspiring Introduction. And since this is one of the top
five most read articles on Pragmatic Witness I think Atzmon’s
Introduction should be included. My apologies to the readers.
INTRODUCTION BY GILAD ATZMON:
We are all aware of the Hasbara trolls, the Wikipedia Jews and the
Israeli Neocon smear outlets. In the following important piece internet
expert Jonathon Blakeley explores the vile and destructive impact of
Sayanim and Hasbara agents on the social networks. What we really see is
a surge of Zio-centric anti- social behaviour in our midst. They are
united against humanity, humanism, pluralism, freedom of expression and
tolerance basically all those things that are precious to the rest of
us.
BY JONATHAN BLAKELEY
Hasbara is an Hebrew word defined as explanation. The purpose of Hasbara
is to explain and educate western people about the Israeli mission.
Hasbara can take many forms, adverts, websites, comments on blogs,
letter writing, protests and so on. For a fuller idea of the depth of
Hasbara check this tool-kit from the We Believe in Israel Website. (made by BICOM).
The difference between propaganda and hasbara? I would say Hasbara is
more of a soft sell at first, it seeks to inform, influence and educate
the ignorant to the Israeli cause. The narrative of Hasbara has a
victimized quality underpinning it, a very passive-aggressive approach,
Israel is always defending not attacking. They play the mis-understood
victim and invite their critics to attack them. The sub-current being
that Israel’s message is not understood. Israel views that the reason
for this is either lack of education or stupidity. So the Hasbara agents
explain until they realise that they are getting nowhere and then
respond with disdain and disgust.
Social Strategies
Key individuals are identified, some support Israel others oppose. These
are the influencers, on Twitter they are people with over 1 000
followers and over 1 000 tweets. By seeking to influence and control
these key individuals, Hasbara agents can influence many many more.
Hasbara trolls on twitter try to act as shepherds for the tweeps, making
them go this way or that.
A troll traditionally on the Internet is someone indulges in off-topic abuse.
A troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic
messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum,
chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an
emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic
discussion.
I believe that calling someone – anti-semite or neo-nazi or racist is inflammatory, unless that is their actual beliefs.
Hasbara Tactics
By controlling information one can control people and the social networks. Hasbara volunteers help to police social networks for Israel.
The big media are dealt with through BICOM and AIPAC, whilst the social
media are policed unofficially by the Hasbara troll brigade. Priority
is to stop influencers being compromised by anti-Israel sentiment.
Hasbara Trolls are generally quite polite at first. They pop up when
someone is critical of Israel and it’s policies or interests. They
target, write, engage, educate and insult. From my research it seems
that there is some kind of hierarchy of trolls, they have leaders who
tell them targets and guide them with their spin. Most work voluntarily
but some are paid for by wealthy sponsors. They track topical keywords and persons using public websites such as topsy.com. Problems arise if
one rejects the explanations being offered by the trolls, then their
troll nature becomes apparent very quickly as they resort to smears and
abuse.
Hasbara Troll attributes
Supreme point of view
The Hasbara troll knows best
Condescending & Patronising
Socialist (Smart and ‘caring’)
Do not have to be Jewish but Pro-Israel
Internet experts
Narcissistic
Provocative
Dis-ruptive
Like to ask the questions, not answer questions
Control freaks
Inflamed by anyone being critical of Israel
‘Moral’ Guardians
Classic insults: Anti-semite, Neo- Nazi, White Supremacist, Holocaust denier
Adept with social networks well trained on IT
Hasbara trolls use internet alerts to warn them when hot keywords are
mentioned. Keywords such as Israel, Jewish, Judaism etc. When those
words are mentioned they are alerted and they go to investigate who is
talking about what. I have seen this happen many times with Gilad Atzmon,
someone will post something from Gilad, shortly afterwards they are
bombarded by hasbara trolls. Initially they explain where they had gone
wrong and try to ‘educate’ people with their ideology. Usually they say
something like
Do you know Gilad Atzmon is a notorious… anti-semite? neo-nazi, holocaust denier. etc.. etc.
The way to spot the troll is the inflammatory language. If Gilad was a
anti-semite it should be self evident but he says quite clearly in his
book “the Wandering Who” .
“In this book i will try to untangle the knot. I will present a harsh
criticism of Jewish politics and identity. Yet it is crucial to mention
at this early stage that there will be not a single reference to Jews
as ethnicity or race. In my writing, I differentiate between Jews (the
people), Judaism (the religion) and Jewish-ness (the ideology). This
book does not deal with Jews as a people or ethnicity. If anything, my
studies of this issue suggest that Jews do not form any kind of racial
continuum. In short, those who are searching for blood or race-related
interpretation on Zionism will have to look for it in someone else’s
work.” Gilad Atzmon P15 Chapter 1 -The Wandering Who.
Types of Jewishness
Jews (the people) – born a jew, being jewish.
Judaism (the religion) – Jewish beliefs.
Jewish-ness (the ideology) – Jewish ideas
Despite Gilad Atzmon making a clear and unequivocal point above, it has
not stopped many zombie zionist hasbara trolls from accusing him time
and time again and many others of anti-semitism or being a neo-nazi.
What is wrong with these pathetic and misguided people? Can’t they read,
or have their brains just curdled in their own cranium. The truth is
they choose not to read or listen or debate.
I would actually say, those people who advocate every
interventionalist war in the name of freedom of speech, democracy and
pluralism, are operating in the west as gatekeepers, censors and resent
any form of intellectual debate – Gilad Atzmon
These people are the new Book burners, those that oppose freedom in all
its forms. These Hasbara trolls oppose free speech and try to suppress
open and free debate and instead replace it with their own hasbara wash
& spin.
It is astonishing the amount of times I have seen trolls warning people
not to read this book or that book. Why do we have all these twitter
trolls trying to influence what people choose to read?
Are they the people of the anti book?- Gilad Atzmon
We must unite to name and shame these despicable individuals as they try
to suppress free and open debate. These people pose a great threat to
our political systems and must be identified to stop them spreading
their vile mis-information far and wide.
Turn up randomly asking question about Israel, trying to engage/educate.
Guilt by association, they point to some source your are linked to as being anti-semitic or neo-nazi.
Opportunity to redeem – the offer chance to recant from your naive ways.
Smears and insults – if the top 3 fail then it’s just character assassination.
Name bombing – using seo in blackhat ways to denounce and smear people.
ie website with 37 mentions of someones name will prob get a Page one on
Google.
Hasbara trolls generally follow the rules of social networks, because
they want to continue to influence people and subvert open and free
debate.
After repeated attempts to indoctrinate you, I mean educate you, the
Hasbara trolls then resort to name bombing. Mentioning a persons name as
many times as possible on social network sites to create negative
report with strong SEO. Basically using the internet to smear people to
the maximum.
Hasbara Trolls are well organised and have links they point to to
prove their flaky points. Although the links these trolls cite are often
from their own hasbara chums and the blogs they reference do not have
original source material just second hand re-cobbled quotes.
Gilad Atzmon is not an anti-semite or a Holocaust denier, but there are
many who would like us to think so. The question is why? To dis-credit
him and his ideas. But it is not just Gilad Atzmon who is the target of
the Hasbara trolls the list is long and growing.
To the right are a series of tweets from #Joe86pw, I have observed him
part-time trolling on many occasions. Here he spots that Tom Watson
famous Labour MP is thinking of buying a new book by Mearsheimer. – “Why
leaders Lie” . Joe spots this tweet and shortly after is tweeting a
helpful warning to Tom Watson MP (Hackgate MP) about that dangerous
book.
In these following tweets we see the “Emma Rosenthal” guiding a troll.
@johne326 got upset when I placed him on my troll list. I asked him why
he was trolling Gilad Atzmon and he responded to me that it was clear to
him that Gilad Atzmon is an anti-semite. All I want to say is this
John, ”look up the definition of trolling”. I have never been into
politics but sure enough the lovely open-minded “Emma Rosenthal” wastes
no time at all in denouncing me as a “White supremacist”.
emma_rosenthal 2:09pm via Web .@jonathonblakele @johne326 by trolling
they mean disagreeing, adding to the discourse? oooh wow sensitive white
supremacists aren’t they?
emma_rosenthal 2:11pm via Web .@johne326 you don’t get it. it’s ruder to
actually oppose racism than to advocate it. don’t be so sensitive!
Just mentioning Gilad Atzmon on twitter is sufficient to attract the
Hasbara vermin within a very short time. They all know each other as
well and they enjoy bullying dissenters with their chums. Really it is just like being back at school being bullied by the school gang. Usually the lead bully goes into to attack whilst others stand by making encouraging noises.
We are ‘told’ that we live in a free society, but we don’t! Free speech
and debate are being squashed by the likes of BICOM, AIPAC and a small
army of annoying Hasbara trolls. We must work together to stop them.
From Truth comes Peace.
Edelstein’s ministry boasts an advanced “situation room,” a paid media
team, and coordination of a volunteer force that claims to include
thousands of bloggers, tweeters and Facebook commenters who are fed the
latest talking points and then flood social media with hasbara in five
languages. The exploits of the propaganda soldiers conscripted into
Israel’s online army have helped give rise to the phenomenon of the
“hasbara troll,” an often faceless, shrill and relentless nuisance
deployed on Twitter and Facebook to harass public figures who express
skepticism about official Israeli policy or sympathy for the
Palestinians.
