Source: Iran’s HispanTV Promotes Anti-Semitism and Disinformation in Latin America
By Diálogo
November 18, 2024HispanTV, the Iranian regime’s Spanish-language news channel, spreads anti-Jewish hatred and disinformation about the Middle East conflict, international analysts say.
“By targeting the world’s nearly 600 million Spanish speakers through satellite, cable, livestreaming, its internet platform, and social media […], HispanTV plays the leading role in disseminating anti-Jewish hate and anti-Israel prejudice in Latin America in particular and in the Spanish-speaking world globally,” the New York-based nongovernmental organization Anti-Defamation League (ADL) states in its report HispanTV: The Iranian regime’s Long Arm of Hate in Latin America.
“In addition to physical violence, the Islamic Republic of Iran — the world’s leading state sponsor of anti-Semitism and terrorism — uses cultural centers and media outlets throughout Latin America to incite hostility against Jewish communities,” said Jonathan Greenblatt, ADL CEO, in a July 15 statement. “The cynical use of media outlets such as HispanTV to amplify anti-Semitic conspiracies and disinformation is reprehensible and unethical.”
There have been attempts to stop HispanTV (see video above). Apparently, HispanTV gets around this by being picked up by other outlets.
LatinArabia has been noting – and warning about – the propagandizing efforts of Iran in Latin America for years. This has been a long time cause for concern.
I suspect this news story (above) is another follow up story to an ADL report that I posted on earlier (Click Here). More than one news outlet is reporting on the ADL’s own warnings.
Something to notice if you do watch HispanTV: Look at the female announcers on HispanTV. Almost all have hijabs. Not exactly free speech.
I will NOT link to their video feeds.
HispanTV is worrisome.
