The United Nations has made the systematic invalidation of Israel a de facto tenet of its existence. Many U.N. agencies have their goal, like UNRWA, not to serve their constituency, but rather to preserve the existence of the agency. Often to the detriment of Israel.
Anti-Israel coverage in the Arab world has been going on for decades. Hasbara has long been used to counter that. And it’s unclear how effective it has been.
But one person who has been at the forefront of countering anti-Israel bias is an anonymous blogger known as the Elder of Ziyon. He wants to remain anonymous and has done a good job at that.
We know he’s an American male based on public audio recordings he has given. See https://www.youtube.com/@TheElderOfZiyon.
Of course, he could be putting on an American accent. But whoever he is and wherever he is from is ultimately irrelevant.
I’ve been a big fan of the Elder for many years.
I reviewed his book “Protocols: Exposing Modern Antisemitism” in The Jewish Link in 2022:
As good as his
blog is, I find it surprising that more people don’t know of it.
I contacted the Elder, who was kind enough to answer some questions.
