Major "American" Anti-Israel Accounts on X Exposed as Foreign Agitprop
The new user location feature on X reveals widespread effort to stoke division inside the U.S. and steer conservative Americans against Jews, Israel, and Zionism
The user location feature on X, which was unveiled yesterday on the platform, has exposed dozens of ostensibly conservative American accounts as foreign influence operations. The accounts, which collectively reach millions of users and often present themselves as American, are actually based in Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, the Philippines, and North Africa — in what appears to be a large-scale effort to turn American public opinion against Israel and sow discord within the United States.
The platform’s rollout of “Based in” labels, designed to improve transparency during major geopolitical events, has inadvertently revealed what researchers describe as a disinformation network exploiting America’s domestic political divisions.
The following accounts demonstrate how foreign operators adopt American personas to weaponize anti-Israel narratives and sow discord within the conservative political movement.
Major “American” Anti-Israel Accounts
The Filipino “Torah Jew”
TorahJudaism claims to bring “the voice of Peace from Torah Jewish Anti-Zionist organization” while listing New York, NY as its location. The account regularly references “tens of thousands of Orthodox Jews” who share it’s beliefs and posts statements like “Every Jew has the right to resist Zionism’s false claim that Israel equals ‘home.’”

The account posted, “Not in the name of American Torah Jews: this display does not reflect our beliefs or values” in response to a Times Square display about the history of the Star of David.

The Saudi “American Patriot”
The account @xIsraelExposedx, which was revealed to be based in Saudi Arabia, regularly posts variations of “We should deport you” and “we will deport the zionists,” using collective “we” to suggest American identity. The account has written iterations of this message more than ten times about “zionists”.

The account amplifies Candace Owens and Nick Fuentes, recently quoting Fuentes stating, “Sanction Israels economy. Ban their visas. Ban their tourists. Ban their passports. Ban them from our universities. Deport Israelis.”

The account shares ‘historical’ documents about “Jewish terrorism,” references JFK correspondence, and promotes conspiracy theories about Israeli intelligence operations, including insinuating that President Trump is involved.
The Saudi “Deep Southwest Cowboy”
The Saudi Arabian-based Muslim Cowboy presents himself as American from the “deep-southwest” and claimed American citizenship stating, “98% of us are American citizens, You cannot stop us all, Israel is the real terrorist threat.”

The account has stated that “israel did 9/11 not Muslims.” It has also called the Bible satanic stating, ”This is the satanic methodology the Bible teaches. There is no such thing as innocent children in the Bible - both for Christian’s and Jews. Never compromise with these devils.”

The account also praised and apparently prayed for conspiracy theorist Candace Owens, and what he described as other conservatives, stating, “Keep it up Candace. May Allah guide you and other conservatives as He guided me home.”

The Turkish “1776 Constitutionalist”
An account called @1776General, which is based in Turkey, uses American revolutionary symbolism in its handle and lists United States as its location. The account recently suggested “Seems Israel is in the driver’s seat. Are we a conquered nation? Is it time for the 2A solution?”—using “we” to claim American identity.
One post stated, “The USA sided with the communist jews in WW2 against German Christians,” a narrative that distorts both the Holocaust and socialist Nazi Germany’s hostility toward Christianity. Another claimed “George Washington signed the 1790 act stating that only Free White people are American. Jews aren’t White.” The account regularly supports Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene.

The Dutch “ Anti-Israel American Taxpayer”
The account known as @Naila_Ayad lists the United States as her location but is based in the Netherlands. She once posted: “Why should American tax dollars fund Israel’s war while our own people can’t afford healthcare? #AmericaFirst”—using possessive “our” to claim American identity. Another post asked “does zionism control the world.”

The account once again poised itself as American when posting about Trump and American First policy debates stating, It’s wild how #Trump keeps screaming America First while letting Netanyahu dictate secret “security plans” on our soil. Since when do foreign leaders get to rewrite U.S. priorities?”

The Convergence Strategy
These accounts share a distinct pattern: simultaneously promoting anti-Israel narratives while amplifying far-right isolationist messaging within American conservative spaces. The strategy exploits emerging fault lines in traditional Republican support for Israel, particularly among younger conservatives whose support has dropped sharply since the Gaza conflict began.
The technique mirrors documented foreign influence operations that exploit existing domestic political tensions. During the 2016 election, Russia’s Internet Research Agency (IRA) operated fake American personas—including @TEN_GOP, which amassed over 150,000 followers while posing as the Tennessee Republican Party—to sow discord by simultaneously amplifying divisive content to both conservative and liberal audiences.
Platform Response and Research Findings
Israeli digital activist Ella Kenan, who lit a torch on Israel’s 76th Independence Day, noted the revelations expose “what an activist warfare arena looks like.” She questioned whether Israel has adequate response mechanisms to such coordinated campaigns.
The exposure arrives amid growing concern about X’s role in amplifying antisemitic content. A recent joint study by the Center for Countering Digital Hate and Jewish Council for Public Affairs found that 679,000 posts violated X’s antisemitism policies, accumulating 193 million views in 11 months, despite platform assurances about content moderation.





What is your suggestion we do once we find out that the posting is antisemitic manipulation?
