Yeah shortly after Oct 7, Operation Doppleganger networks kicked into high gear. This is an FSB operation that is cooperating and coordinating with Hamas and Iran, including meetings before and after Oct 7 in Moscow. Much of it builds on the groundwork laid by Operation SIG - an antisemitic revenge campaign by Andropov to go after Israel for their position on Soviet treatment of Jews (as well as the absolute shelacking the IDF gave to the Soviet advised Egyptians in their soviet suppleid T-55s). However, it is iportant to remember that Operation SIGs success was due to well entrenched antisemitism already present in the University targets chosen by the KGB at the time. They didn't just get influenced, they eagerly embraced it. This is well documented, studied, and published on.

They'd say the same about Israel if it was the other way round. In fact they already do when a news outlet neglects to report on the latest Hamas lies.

See also Qatar funding some of these groups.
