The Israeli government plans to offset wartime spending and an economic slowdown with tax hikes and deep cuts to public services. But the proposed budget for 2025 also includes a massive new allocation: toward pro-Israel advocacy efforts abroad.
Under the new budget, Israel’s Foreign Ministry will receive $150 million, on top of what it gets for its existing activities, for what’s officially known as public diplomacy, or in Hebrew, hasbara. That sum is more than 20 times what such efforts have typically been allotted in past years.
The hasbara has been extremely sloppy as of late and failing miserably so it’s understandable. Not sure what a more sophisticated genocide denial is going to do
It has always been sloppy. They have about two layers of lies to retort to debunks and then any person looking into Israel realizes the entire countries history is lies and more lies.
