THREAD. We revealed today: thousands of anti-Israel posts from bot and troll networks tried to influence Israeli policy and manipulate public opinion on Israel-related issues, right here, on Twitter. 🤖

Take @RawanBDS, that pretends to be a Palestinian woman, but her profile pic is of model taken from stock footage. “Rawan” also never eat or sleep, since she’s RTing non-stop anti-Israel propaganda, day and night. 🤖

Another one. @jjQ8xaTr30SpzCk has already been restricted by Twitter for “unusual activity”. Why? They’re constantly tweeting same tweets and hashtags for alleged “war crimes”, day and night. 🤖

Now look at @SaraPal15 @PalYara @Ayesha_Halaby @Sara_BDS4 @miraPalestine1 and the DOZENS of other accounts like them. All look the same? Well, they’re also miraculously tweeting the same stuff. Over and over. At the same time. 🤖

How do we know? Well, when a Twitter account never takes a break from tweeting, doesn’t have normal sleeping hours etc, he is suspicious of inauthentic behavior. Like @Allahkibandi5, who tweeted 55K in 5 months, 370 tweets (and more) every day. 🤖

The goal is clear: spreading disinformation and manipulate you, the common Twitter users who make this platform so great. With 30 tweets per hour. Like @arafiah250597, that was already suspended this morning. 🤖

2-month examination found at least 21% of ICC &/or sovereignty posts from inauthentic accounts, had 180 greater engagement rates than real users.This is why Minister @FarkashOrit sent a letter to Twitter this morning, urging the platform to take action. 🤖 i24news.tv/en/news/israel…
