US Intelligence Director Warns Iran Is Behind Anti-Israel Protests in America
by Karen Faulkner, Worthy News Correspondent
(Worthy News) – The United States Director of National Intelligence has warned that Iran’s Islamic regime has been encouraging and funding anti-Israel, pro-Hamas protests in the US in an effort to divide America and stoke hatred against Israel, Ynet News reports. Vehemently anti-semitic, the Iranian regime has publicly declared its desire for the Jewish state to be annihilated.
In a public online statement made on Tuesday, US Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines said Tehran has taken advantage of the Israel-Hamas in Gaza to foment strife in America, Ynet News reports.
According to Haines, Tehran operatives have been posing as activists online to encourage protests and sow discord through cyber and influence campaigns on social media.
“Iran is becoming increasingly aggressive in their foreign influence efforts, seeking to stoke discord and undermine confidence in our democratic institutions, as we have seen them do in the past, including in prior election cycles,” Haines said.
“They continue to adapt their cyber and influence activities, using social media platforms and issuing threats,” Haines added.
Urging US citizens to “remain vigilant” during online interactions, Haines emphasized: “Americans who are being targeted by this Iranian campaign may not be aware that they are interacting with or receiving support from a foreign government.”
