Makes sense to deploy counterpropaganda. They haven't been doing great online.

They have been doing amazing. Any other nation which did this would have been sanctioned to death. The last several years have 100% convinced me that facts don't matter in geopolitics - only propaganda and narrative matter. In fact, facts matter least of all and perception is everything.

In relation to what they're doing, Israel is doing very well with its propaganda. Imagine what the coverage & public opinion would be if this was any other Western ally or other country. e.g.Yugoslavia & Russia/Ukraine for when the West paid attention. Rwanda, Darfur, the Uyghurs were remote but the public opinion was that they were bad. There was no "The Hutus have a right to self defense." or "Sudan has a right to exist."

Israel was very early in developing a military propaganda unit focused on social media. It was very effective, as well as providing a safe & air conditioned office for a chosen segment of their population's military service. Combined with their extensive political, religious & social lobbying they still control the majority of the narrative. Even when obvious war crimes are committed, investigated & accepted as the truth by allies, the narrative is always forgiving. Their talking points still take priority in the majority of the social and traditional media, even when presented with evidently more truthful counterpoints.

It is not counter propaganda, it is propaganda.

Propaganda to allow despicable actions to continue.

Given that they are trying to do counter-propganda to a well publicized and incredibly documented genocide they are doing incredible.

Entirely expected & note that there is nothing illegal about it. It is essentially SEO for political purposes.

and nothing illegal about them committing genocide and killing babies using bullets in the chest as well right?

You'll have to take that up w/ the international court of justice instead of random internet strangers commenting on the legality of propaganda & political SEO.
