TEHRAN – The unprecedented brutality of Israel against the Gaza Strip has revealed a strategic shift in public opinion in the United States in favor of Palestine, prompting the Zionists to tackle the increasing trend of opposition to Israeli barbarism. 

 Ever since early October, the Israeli regime has been relentlessly bombing the defenseless Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip, where more than 11,000 civilians have been killed, mostly women and children. The massiveness of the atrocities of the Israeli regime was beyond imagination, rightly causing global uproar and drawing criticism of Tel Aviv. 

Thousands of people around the world, including in the U.S., have taken to the streets to put pressure on their leaders to demand a ceasefire in Gaza. For instance, more than 10,000 people attended a protest at the Texas Capitol to call for a ceasefire in the Israeli war on Gaza. Similar demonstrations were held across the world. 

The global outcry appears to have spooked Zionists in the West, prompting them to issue stark warnings about the diminishing support for Israel. One such warning came from Jonathan Greenblatt, the director of the so-called Anti-Defamation League, whose function is centered on spreading defamation against anyone criticizing the apartheid regime of Israel.

In a recent private meeting with a group of Zionist propagandists, Greenblatt sounded the alarm bells about Israel losing the messaging battlespace in the U.S., according to a recording of the meeting exclusively obtained by the Tehran Times.

“But I also, wanna point out that we have a major major major generational problem, all the polling that I’ve seen, ADL’s polling, ICC’s polling, independent polling suggests this is not a left or right gap folks, the issue in United States’ support for Israel is not left and right, it is young and old, and the numbers of young people who think that Hamas’s you know massacre was justified is shockingly and terrifyingly high,  and so we really have a Tik-Tok problem a Gen-Z problem that our community needs to put the same brains that gave us Tagly(?) the same brains that gave us all these other amazing innovations need to put our energy toward this like fast, cause again like we’ve been chasing this left right divide, it’s the wrong game, the real game is the next generation and the Hamas and their accomplices the useful idiots in the West are falling in line in ways that are terrifying,” Greenblatt said. 

A former Obama official, Greenblatt has been actively defaming any criticism of Israel since early October when the Israeli regime launched a genocidal campaign against the Gaza Strip following an operation by Palestinian resistance groups in the occupied territories. Interestingly, he even defamed Jews who bravely stood against Israel, labeling them as “anti-Israel.” Interestingly, he is married to Marjan Keypour, a Zionist of Iranian origin. 
The spouse has been fiercely acting as a Zionist propagandist in the U.S., spreading slanted reports and analyses on behalf of the Israeli regime. The global wave of awareness about the terrorist nature of Israel has led them to double down on their activism in recent weeks.   

In the private meeting, Greenblatt told the participants that this wave has something to do with Iran! 

He said, “The last thing I’ll just say, we saw a dramatic change in the language of the activists here in the America on Oct. the 8th, the language of groups that we’ve long tracked,  to have long been problematic, like Student for Justice in Palestine and Jewish Voices for Peace, they flipped like this and went to like Iranian Propaganda, the language I could show you from their toolkits, cause they’re endless in their groups, we saw this again on October the 8th , it was that fast, like the language in their toolkits was all about Zionist entity, and lots of other language that we recognize from Iranian propaganda. We think that there is something more to this that’s below the water line, it’s the young generations that we need to focus our energy on, there is something happening with Iran, and how it’s now their propaganda, in their language in their tactics, seem to be bleeding into the American kind of activists face, in ways that is very different than NIAC and very very problematic.”

Unlike the frightened Greenblatt’s allegation, the wave of Israel-bashing awareness has nothing to do with Iran because Israel’s oppression against the defenseless Palestinian nation is so glaringly obvious that every human being with the slightest moral conscience would naturally take the side of the Palestinians in this disproportionate war. That Zionists like Greenblatt find it difficult to understand why Palestinians deserve solidarity stems from their minds being inundated with Hasbara, the unique Israeli propaganda strategy that left many Israelis and their supporters unable to criticize the bombardment of hospitals replete with incubator babies.

Overall, American students do not need Iran or any other country to “indoctrinate” them that Israel is committing crimes against humanity. They see with their own eyes on global televisions how Israel is killing women and children in Gaza, the largest open-air prison of the world. With its carnage in Gaza, the Israeli regime has turned into a moral burden for its supporters. Today, defending Israel means a complete lack of moral compass. At the end of the day, no human being should be forced to undergo surgery without anesthesia in the 21st century. Israel, however, forced Gazan doctors to perform such surgeries, not just for the elderly, but also for babies.
