| Does it seem strange that Russia would go with Israel to astroturf credibility? |

| No, Israel has maintained relations with the Kremlin and has refused to impose sanctions against them, as well as rejected calls to send military aid to Ukraine. |

| Evangelical Christians are the target audience. They are strong supporters of Israel because of their interpretation of the bible. |

| No? Russia had a random news paper in India put up an article linking AIDS to the CIA, and then over years converted that into a constellation of articles and commentary that even reached the UN. Russia looks at disinformation the same way someone looks at configuring a server. What can be seeded where, at what cost and for what outcome. |

| If you want to understand Israel - think of it as Eastern European country that is geographically misplaced. Kremlin knows how to pass convincingly as them. And Israel is a wedge issue. In psyops - discord is the goal. |

| ▲ | ReptileMan 4 days ago | parent [-] | | Most of EE countries want the economic prosperity of EU without the ECHR crap. If you offer them devolvement of the EU to its original trade only idea - they would take it in a heartbeat. But specifically Israel was founded by a lot of people from the pale of settlement, there was big wave of immigration from USSR after the berlin wall fell. Culturally they represent the same mix of craziness, inventiveness, paranoia, chauvinism, xenophobia that the other EE countries also show. Not that those are bad things depending on the context and the situation. | | |

Not ReptileMan: Depending on the country and social environment that you live in, such opinions of "ordinary, living" people are nothing unusual. In my experience the reason why many people think such opinions barely exist "in normal society" or accuse posters of such opinions to be bots is that these normal people live in a bubble in which such opinions are rare. |
