An asset of the state of Israel? In 2015 the Ministry of Strategic Affairs was given the job of lead ministry for challenging the Palestine solidarity movement.
The Ministry led by Gilad Erdan, and run by a former military intelligence officer used overt and covert methods to sabotage and delegitimate activist groups and individuals, it smeared supporters of BDS as terrorists, it recruited troll armies and it trained activists to dig up Kompromat and smear supporters of Palestinian liberation.
