Anyone Else Getting YT Ads from Israeli Government Advertising Agency

Question

When I click the ad (which is a video showing fast food restaurants servings tons of meal in Gaza, even today), it links to the following:https://govextra.gov.il/mda/ipc/gazaThere was also an ad showing a starving child in Gaza and claiming it was false, and that the child had a genetic disease (the starving body image was apparently being used as propaganda is the implication). The YouTube link on the ad is from the Israeli ad agency.I&rsquo;m mostly lost for words. Anyone else seeing this? This shit is disgusting.

YouTube ads are targeted based on your browsing history, demographics, and location. You can check what Google thinks about you in your ad settings (https://adssettings.google.com) and disable personalized ads or report inappropriate ones.

Certain zionista activities are clear proof that evil is a real thing. I am not anti-Jewish but their activities are clearly and self-conciously genocidal which is even worse. Stomach churning even if you are a billion miles away

RE "... The YouTube link on the ad is from the Israeli ad agency...."
(MAYBE) The important question is , Is the information being shown CORRECT?
However I just look up definition of propaganda, and it includes phrases like "...information to present a particular viewpoint.." "...it can be correct information.." I always assume it was incorrect information. So yes the above youtube link would fit the definition of propaganda. However we do not know if it is TRUE or NOT
Even looking for other entities with same information is not good enough. In addition the world s media seems to copy information from each other.
That means most of the previous articles on this Gaza/Hamas/Israel situation would be propaganda. I've always noted the LACK of articles criticising Hamas or even mentioning Hamas role in the situation , recently and over the last 18 months too.
I realize both sides would be releasing propaganda.
Gaza journalists are said (propaganda?) to be controlled by Hamas otherwise they get threats of violence (bashings) or death from Hamas.
This all fits in with the statement/saying ....the first causality of war is truth.

The extreme amount of comment flagging is disgusting. It's allowed to discuss the source of ads on HN.
