Lies about kite project end up via ex-employee CIDI in Israeli press https://rightsforum.org/nieuws/leugens-vliegerproject-belanden-ex-medewerker-cidi-israelische-pers/
November 1, 2018 A lying article in Israeli media about the canceled pilot project in Vlissingen is shown by the former CIDI employee Cnaan Liphshiz. As is often the case, he is the intermediate station between the Dutch Israel lobby and Israeli media, which publish his fake news uncritically. The kites on the beach of Scheveningen. 'In Vlissingen, a pro-Palestinian event took place in which pilots with a swastika and other nazi symbolism were made up. It was a kite show in solidarity with Gaza, and the artists were praised by a councilor on Twitter. ' This equally sensational and untrue news was read on the Israeli news websites The Times of Israel and Haaretz on 27 October. The two identical articles echoed the campaign of the so-called Israel lobby and Vlissingse political parties to make a kite project of the art artspaceCAESUUR suspicious as anti-Semitic and leaning on Nazi symbolism and terrorism. And in order to get it canceled, a design that succeeded: defamed and frustrated, the artists canceled their event. We wrote about it earlier this week. Pass across of defamation The article on the Israeli websites comes from the American news agency The Jewish Telegraphic Agency (JTA). It appears written by the Dutch correspondent of JTA, Cnaan Liphshiz. He is a former employee of the Center for Information and Documentation Israel (CIDI), the prominent lobbying organization that also took the gun against the kite project, as mentioned by Liphshiz in his article. Liphshiz functions more often as an intermediate station between the Dutch Israel lobby and Israeli media, which usually publish its articles unchecked. Earlier we paid attention to the role that Liphshiz played in the smear campaigns against Minister Sigrid Kaag and former Prime Minister and founder of The Rights Forum Dries van Agt. Via Liphshiz, an international readership was presented with the slander in the Netherlands about both of them. Hard-tempered lie This time the audience could read how Liphshiz made the artists and their kite project in Vlissingen suspicious. One of their pilots, writes Liphshiz in imitation of the Dutch website for 'independent Jewish news' Jonet, painted with a swastika. A green swastika still, 'the color of Hamas'. Such a kite was in Vlissingen, however, in no fields or roads to be seen. Liphshiz 'claim could thus have come from the St. Petersburg troll factory. It is fake news, a well-placed lie in the world. Following the Dutch Lobby Liphshiz also brings a kite with the image of the German Reich eagle to the spotlight ('Nazi Germany's Imperial Eagle symbol') and he gives his own explanation to the rocket depicted by an artist. He describes the image - an indictment of shooting civilians with high-tech weapons in countries like Yemen - as' a rocket resembling Hamas' Qassam missile '. He does not pay attention to the rest of the nineteen pilots, nor to the purpose of the manifestation. He describes this as misleading as 'a pro-Palestinian kite show' and an event 'in solidarity with Gaza'.
