Whole Truth (not Barmy)

Attempts to discern the veracity of many of Israel's claims about Hamas in the war have been difficult. One of the main reasons for this is that Israel uses a propaganda function known in Hebrew as "Hasbara" in an attempt to control, shape and distort the narrative of every face of its actions.

The word 'Hasbara' roughly translates to 'explaining' in English and was popularised in the early 20th century by the Polish Zionist activist and journalist Nahum Sokolow. Hasbara shares much in common with other forms of modern propaganda, but it is often considered a description of the more granular, event-by-event distortions and fabrications utilised by the Israeli state to justify its controversial actions and policies.
