An investigation by 30 media outlets, including the Guardian and Der Spiegel, has claimed to have exposed a team of freelance units based in Israel who disrupt elections and manipulate public opinion using disinformation campaigns.

The contractors, who used the pseudonym "Team Jorge," are run by Tal Hanan, a 50-year-old former Israeli special forces operative, who was apparently caught in an undercover sting operation by a team of journalists posing as potential clients. Tal Hanan denies any wrongdoing.

Hanan allegedly told the reporters that his unit's services were available to intelligence agencies, political campaigns, and private companies, and that they had already been used around the globe, including in Europe, Africa, the USA, as well as Central and South America.

Team Jorge's operations are said to involve the creation of thousands of fake social media profiles on Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Telegram, Gmail, Instagram, and YouTube. These fake accounts, which allegedly used profile pictures from real social media accounts, were also linked to credit cards and could be used to create thousands of bots that sent mass messages.

"We are now involved in one election in Africa … We have a team in Greece and a team in [the] Emirates … You follow the leads," Hanan said in one secretly filmed meeting quoted in the Guardian. "[We have completed] 33 presidential-level campaigns, 27 of which were successful."

27 of which were successful

I'm sure all 33 were successful. The jews install politicians but need the disinfo campaigns to sew division and confusion among the plebs. They get their (((candidates))) installed no matter what goes on with the disinfo campaigns.
