Israeli minister lambasts ‘organized campaign’ on Arab social media to target peace accords

On Israel with Ben Caspit, an Al-Monitor podcast

Ben Caspit speaks this week with Orit Farkash Hacohen, Israel’s minister of tourism and strategic affairs. The Blue and White minister says an organized campaign on Arabic social media is now targeting the UAE, Bahrain and all other countries who have chosen the route of normalization with Israel. “In the ministry, we exposed this campaign for what it really is — a campaign financed by Hezbollah, other terror organizations and Iran, with the goal of de-legitimizing moderate countries,” Hacohen noted. She also says the current Israeli government made a mistake by placing all its eggs in the Republican basket, neglecting building stronger bridges with US democrats.
