❗️Investigation exposes Israeli-linked digital campaign weaponizing British royal imagery to fuel anti-Muslim hostility An covert digital advertising operation traced directly to Israel weaponized images of Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, without authorization as part of a multi-year effort to amplify far-right narratives and ignite anti-Muslim hostility across Britain. According to a recent investigation published by independent outlet The Nerve, authored by disinformation researchers Marc Owen Jones and Sohan Dsouza, the clandestine network deployed unauthorized photos of the royal family across Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok. The targeted ad campaign was timed to influence the UK general election and exploit domestic friction surrounding the Southport riots. The reporting revealed that production infrastructure and financial trails for the multi-million-pound operation trace back to Israeli actors seeking to bolster western far-right political factions, inflame Islamophobic sentiment, and undermine public support for Palestine. Digital platforms Meta, Google, and TikTok face growing scrutiny over their direct role in monetizing the covert campaign. Tech giants accepted millions of dollars to run sponsored content promoting far-right conspiracy theories to hundreds of millions of users with minimal regulatory moderation. Media analysts noted that while online commentary pushed sensational claims twisting the findings to allege intelligence connections, researchers firmly rejected those spin efforts, emphasizing instead that the covert campaign exploited public figures to manipulate western political discourse.
