(Sept. 24, 2026 \/ JNS)\n <\/p>\n
An Israeli government agency this week deployed a public diplomacy effort involving 500 billboards in Manhattan to highlight \u201cthe threat posed by Iran\u2019s terrorist regime\u201d and the U.S.-Israel partnership in confronting it, officials said.<\/p>\n
The campaign, which coincides with the United Nations General Assembly, features dozens of trucks that will tow mobile billboards across Manhattan, according to the National Public Diplomacy Directorate at the Israeli Prime Minister\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n
This underscores \u201cthe threat posed by Iran\u2019s terrorist regime and the partnership between Israel and the US in the struggle against the Axis of Evil,\u201d according to the statement.<\/p>\n
The Government Advertising Agency launched part of the three-day campaign, which is scheduled to wrap up Friday. In addition to main avenues and streets, the campaign features massive signage in Times Square.<\/p>\n
\u201cMillions of people are expected to be exposed to the campaign and its messages,\u201d said Israeli National Public Diplomacy Directorate Head Tzipi Hotovely. \u201cAgainst the backdrop of incitement and anti-Israel messaging promoted by our adversaries, the U.N. General Assembly session is an opportunity to raise awareness of the hypocrisy and cynicism prevalent against us in the corridors of the U.N.,\u201d the statement continued.<\/p>\n
The messages featured in the campaign include: \u201cFreedom doesn\u2019t defend itself,\u201d referencing the strategic cooperation between Israel and the United States, which on Feb. 28 launched a joint operation meant to prevent Iran from threatening its neighbors and other countries.<\/p>\n
Other messages are centered on the United Nations itself, which critics say has been hijacked by the anti-Israel and anti-American agendas of some countries and other players. These messages include the graphics \u201cUNsafe\u201d and \u201cUNacceptable.\u201d The Iranian delegation to the U.N. General Assembly is the target of some signs, accusing them of human rights violations against their own citizens.<\/p>\n
Part of the campaign urges audiences to \u201cchoose a side,\u201d contrasting the anti-Israeli\/anti-American side \u2014 which the billboard associates with tyranny and terrorism \u2014 with the pro-Israel\/pro-American side, which the campaign associates with freedom and life, according to the Directorate\u2019s statement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"(Sept. 24, 2026 \/ JNS) An Israeli government agency this week deployed a public diplomacy effort involving 500…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":355632,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[75,84,83,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-355631","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-manhattan","tag-manhattan","tag-manhattan-headlines","tag-manhattan-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/355631","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=355631"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/355631\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/355632"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=355631"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=355631"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=355631"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
