In this special edition, we compile our reporting on Israel’s war on Gaza – documenting the information war as it has unfolded since October 7.
In 17 years of The listening postwe have never seen a story comparable to Israel’s war on Gaza.
This was a turning point for the world order as we know it and its media ecosystem – which is why, since October 7, we have not addressed anything else.
In this special edition, we have compiled our reporting on the war in Gaza over the past 12 weeks. The scale of the brutality, a genocide taking place in plain sight; the sheer volume of disinformation, designed to defend the indefensible; and the complicity of many Western media – repeatedly denounced for not having questioned Israeli propaganda, then for disseminating it.
