Iraqi news site starts off saying "Zionists"control the media before admitting hating Jews

Iraqi news site An Nabaa really tried to hide its Jew-hatred:

Control of the media has been the cornerstone of the Zionist strategy since the Zionist movement was founded by the Jewish journalist Theodor Herzl, who was able to hold the first Zionist Congress in 1897 in the city of Basel, Switzerland...The first World Zionist Congress, held in Basel, states in one of its resolutions the importance of controlling the media. From that date until today, the Zionist movement has always tried to control the world's major media outlets..

The author seems to be confusing the Basel Program with the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, because the First Zionist Congress resolutions did not mention the media.

But after only a couple of paragraphs about how the Zionists are taking over the Arab media as well, the author forgets the cardinal rule of avoiding accusations of antisemitism - always use the word "Zionists" and never say "Jews:"

We must acknowledge that the current Zionist political media strategy is an inseparable part of the ancient and modern Jewish Zionist history, and is also one of the foundations of the construction of the global Zionist national project based on the construction and establishment of Greater Israel, which is directed and managed by the United States of America. Specifically by the Zionist lobby, which was able to control many of the sensitive centers in that empire, but to establish the main center of the Zionist political media strategy in the world, through that huge number of newspapers and periodicals and satellite channels, research centers, advertising and many other modern media.

In fact, the Zionist political media strategy, with its deception, lies and distortion of the meaning and content of the truth of the media, is not the product of the current Israeli Zionist presence in the Arab world, or the product of the Arab-Israeli conflict in particular, but rather a product and historical extension of an instinctive human ideology. The hatred, lying and deception of others since eternity has been mentioned in many heavenly Jewish historical books such as Isaiah and Amos and Jeremiah and other books and chapters of the Jewish evidence of this fact.  Jeremiah speaks of God's wrath and rejection of an entire generation of Jews because the truth has been destroyed and torn because of them.

Incidentally, this is a merger of traditional Muslim and modern antisemitism. Muslim antisemitism says that Jews are liars and breakers of agreements; modern conspiracy theory antisemitism says Jews control the banks and media.
