"Just some guy living in "Israel", trying to help advance the Jewish people and repair the world. No big whoop." This is how Avi Mayer defines himself on his Twitter account. However, the Jewish agency for "Israel" calls him "Israel's" social media guru.
Be it on facebook, twitter, or other social media network, "Israel" has recruited hundreds of cyber soldiers to carry erasers and paintbrushes to rub out "Israel's" violence that many activists have been revealing across cyber world, and to circulate positive propaganda about the usurping entity
The "just a guy living in "Israel"", excuse me OCCUPIED PALESTINE, was hailed by the Jerusalem Post, the "Israeli" online newspaper, as it recalled one of his "heroic" acts on twitter.
"Avi Mayer was monitoring his Twitter account when he noticed a disturbing topic that had been gaining popularity. The phrase "Israel-hates" had been tagged onto enough posts that the message had become a worldwide trend topic," read an article on the Jpost in 2011. It explained: "Mayer, who heads social media for the Jewish Agency, wanted to combat that message of hate, so he decided to start his own trend topic."
A few weeks ago, Mayer's name surfaced again in social media as he had decided to take the task of defending the image of "Israel"- again on his behalf (actually on the behalf of the "Israeli" government), by targeting a UN employee who had tweeted a photo of Gazans killed by "Israel".
UN humanitarian employee Khulood Badawi posted the image of Raja Abu Shaban on March 12. Her caption read: "Palestine is bleeding. Another child killed by #Israel". She never claimed a certain time or date of the photo, unlike what the hasbara campaign claimed, accusing her of relating the photo to the 2008 "Israeli" onslaught on the Gaza Strip.
Mayer and the hasbara-mafia began digging and found the source of the photo, dating back to 2006.
They alleged that the girl hadn't died at "Israel's" hands, but rather had fallen from a swing and died from the fall.
The Guru then passed the story off to Ron Prosor, "Israel's" UN ambassador, who ten days later demanded Badawi's head, accused her of deliberate fabrication in an attempt to smear "Israel".
The UN ambassador wrote to OCHA under-secretary Valerie Amos calling for Badawi's dismissal for "hate speech," a post on his office's Facebook account said.
"The picture was taken and published in 2006 by Reuters, which reported that this child died in an accident. She was not killed by "Israeli" forces," Ron Prosor claimed, according to Fox News.
Still, truth cannot be sealed for long as Ma'an news agency had gathered enough information refuting the hasbara version of the story.
Acccording to Ma'an, "Raja, 2 years old, arrived dead to Shifa hospital on Aug. 9, 2006, around the same time as the bodies of two members of the Popular Resistance Committees, after an airstrike in Gaza City."
The report said that the "Israeli" army insists the airstrike was not in any way linked to her death, but medical records, interviews with relatives of the girl, and news reports from that day suggest otherwise.
Ma'an news agency had seen the hospital medical report, which said that the cause of death registered from that day in 2006 concludes that Raja died "due to falling from a high area during the "Israeli" strike on Gaza."
Human rights organizations also said Raja died after the impact of the explosions. "Israeli" and Palestinian groups maintain her fall was the result of the army activity targeting Palestinian fighters in a nearby field.
Another evidence on the story is a report by the Palestinian Center for Human Rights PCHR. the following is an excerpt of the report issued by PCHR on week August 3-9 2006. "Killing: During the reported period, IOF killed 20 Palestinians, including 12 civilians, in the Gaza Strip. The victims included 6 children and an old man. In addition, civilian died from a previous wound he had sustained last month. It is noted that 17 of the victims were killed during a 3-day IOF incursion into Rafah. This number includes two brothers, who were attacked by an IOF drone while they were fleeing from the area together with their mother and brother, who were also wounded. It also included a 3-day-old baby, who fell from the hands of her mother who was fleeing from the area, as IOF shelled it. Most of the victims were killed by IOF air strikes. The remaining 3 victims, other than those who were killed in Rafah, were two members of the Palestinian resistance and a 3-yea-old child. The two members were killed by a missile fired by an IOF warplane, whereas the child died when she fell from the roof of her family's house due to the heavy explosion caused by the missile."
The hasbara war, the delusional campaign by the "Israeli" is part of the studied war for the survival of the "Israeli" usurping entity. Yet, day by day, the "Israeli" fabrications uncover to prove the entity is thrashing about to keep its existence which will not last for long.
