Ask HN: Anyone Else Getting YT Ads from Israeli Government Advertising Agency

16•ivape•3h ago
When I click the ad (which is a video showing fast food restaurants servings tons of meal in Gaza, even today), it links to the following:

https://govextra.gov.il/mda/ipc/gaza

There was also an ad showing a starving child in Gaza and claiming it was false, and that the child had a genetic disease (the starving body image was apparently being used as propaganda is the implication). The YouTube link on the ad is from the Israeli ad agency.

I’m mostly lost for words. Anyone else seeing this? This shit is disgusting.

nick_travels•3h ago
Do better research. And HN is definitely not the place for this.

Is this tech related? Are you mother Theresa?

ivape•3h ago
Where do I start? Link me to educate myself. If they let some journalists in, at least I could ask these simple people what their favorite fast food joint is in Gaza 2025.
nick_travels•2h ago
This has been edited. With all due respect, I don't want to educate anyone.

The Middle East is a complex place.

ivape•2h ago
May you burn quietly in hell. Don’t speak to me dude. That’s about as polite as I can be, forgive me God.
nick_travels•2h ago
No offense taken. This is your opinion, I have mine. We certainly don't have to agree on it.
rvnx•2h ago
We can't even agree here whether LLMs are useful for programming, so I doubt we are going to resolve a 100+ years conflict.
nick_travels•2h ago
Exactly haha
ivape•2h ago
Why would the shameless take offense? Anyway, that’s how the ads tried to convince me. I thought I’d let y’all know.
bigyabai•2h ago
> so it's actually impossible for you to filter it and find the facts

Don't gatekeep like this. It's not your place to do it, there are still facts and worthwhile discussions to be had around them.

nick_travels•2h ago
Nobody is gatekeeping, just sharing my perspective. I'm up for respected discussion, and any fact and worthwhile discussion is very much welcome.

I think this is the video you may have seen.

ivape•2h ago
That’s exactly it. Woah, why am I being targeted like this with foreign propaganda? So, it’s business as usual in Gaza is the implication?
rvnx•2h ago
The most likely is that your browsing history (via retargeting pixels on the websites), Google searches or YouTube history show interest into Palestine or Israel.

From there you become part of the audience groups, that are chosen by advertisers targeting these interests.

ivape•2h ago
This is kind of intense if they do this while the history is not settled or agreed upon by sensible people yet, no?

Basically we’re talking WW2 level propaganda but with targeted ads.

Full disclosure:

I watch a lot of Democracy Now:

https://youtu.be/G-BLhMixwKU

I think this is the best ad I ever saw, pretty sure he breaks down somewhere in there. He speaks well about what he wanted his daughter to learn.

YouTube ads are targeted based on your browsing history, demographics, and location. You can check what Google thinks about you in your ad settings (https://adssettings.google.com) and disable personalized ads or report inappropriate ones.

Certain zionista activities are clear proof that evil is a real thing. I am not anti-Jewish but their activities are clearly and self-conciously genocidal which is even worse. Stomach churning even if you are a billion miles away
