  • Channel 12 is accused of aiding Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's campaign against Arab parties.
  • The network's election coverage is described as biased consciousness engineering.

Israel's most-watched television channel, Channel 12, is accused of serving Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's "destructive influence campaign" for two days following the recent elections. The network's coverage of the election results is described as "biased consciousness engineering bordering on a breach of trust" towards its viewers.

In any other democratic country, an election result of 67 seats for the "change bloc" versus 53 for Netanyahu's bloc would be considered a clear victory for the opposition and a resounding defeat for the incumbent. However, Prime Minister Netanyahu is reportedly denying the results and spearheading a "malicious de-legitimization campaign" against Arab parties. The article asserts that this campaign occurs in a country already deeply entrenched in racism and suffocating from Jewish supremacy. It notes that Netanyahu himself has previously called for Arab participation in government, a right he apparently reserves for himself.
