A network of accounts on X using stolen and possibly AI-generated images coordinated to engage with accounts supportive of Israel

This discovery follows previous research by the DFRLab and other investigators which exposed a similar network of inauthentic pro-Israel accounts which became active on Facebook, Instagram, and X after the beginning of the war in Gaza.

    Unfortunately, these are just articles that claim stuff, they do not include any actual and/or current researches. This is why they use terms like “trusted source”, or urge the reader to worry about something, instead of providing evidence and let the reader decide how to feel about these findings.

    Also, they come from the mouthpieces that Zionist propaganda uses. Remember the debunked beheaded babies claims, or the weaponization of sexual violence claims, or the human shield claims - to name just a few that were covered by these media.

    Still, thank you for taking the time.

      If you don’t trust…

      • The Associated Presss (citing US Intelligence),
      • CNN (citing Microsoft), and
      • NPR (citing “an Israeli watchdog group” – okay, I’ll give you this one),

      …then who do you trust?

      It almost sounds like you’re brushing off any media report as “a mouthpiece”, and only believing random anonymous posts on the Internet.
