Shocking Revelations: Morocco Involved in Digital Attacks against Algeria and Palestine, Supporting Zionist Entity

ALGIERS- In a groundbreaking series of digital investigations conducted by the “Eekad” platform, aimed at uncovering the truth behind manipulative actions by Moroccan committees in the Arab world, the latest revelation exposes Morocco’s involvement in supporting relentless electronic attacks through social media against Algerians, Palestinian resistance, and the promotion of discord among Arab peoples, all in the shadow of potential support for the Zionist occupation.
Suspicious Moroccan Accounts Emerge
The investigation, unveiled last Thursday, disclosed that, in conjunction with the “Al-Aqsa Flood” operation, certain Moroccan accounts surfaced on platforms such as Twitter and Facebook, vehemently attacking the Al-Qassam brigades and Palestinian resistance, while disparaging the Zionists’ military operations and airstrikes.
Titled “Moroccan Committees Support Israel and Attack the Resistance,” the investigation provides a wealth of information, statistics, and documented data illustrating how these Moroccan e-committees are actively engaged in manipulating Arab public opinion.
Morocco’s Complicity Unveiled
One of the most stunning revelations of this investigation is Morocco’s complicity in recruiting and supporting Moroccan committees that defame Palestinian resistance, seemingly in favor of the Zionist occupation. A significant portion of these accounts echo identical slogans and employ the same emojis in a strikingly uniform manner. Even the content of their tweets was tailored to suit a Moroccan narrative.
These accounts do not operate independently but rather function in a systematic and coordinated fashion, endeavoring to construct a misleading public perception of Moroccan support for the Zionist entity.
The Creation of Deceptive Identities
Most of these accounts were either established or significantly increased their online activity just before December 2020, coinciding with the Zionist-Arab normalization agreements. This timing strongly suggests that these accounts were initially created to lay the groundwork for normalization and cultivate popular support for this diplomatic approach.
Furthermore, the number of these accounts experienced a significant and somewhat inexplicable surge starting from August 2022. This sudden increase correlates with previous investigations conducted by Eekad, which revealed similar committees promoting Zionist-Egyptian and Zionist-Saudi relations.
Transformation of Identities
Eekad’s investigation further brought to light the deliberate crafting of multiple elaborate, fictitious identities complete with fabricated life stories, specializations, interests, and images. These identities were then presented to social media users as genuine people, thereby amplifying their credibility. The identities were subsequently flooded with a deluge of fictional interactions, further cementing their authenticity in the eyes of unsuspecting onlookers.
Remarkably, Eekad noted that several of these Facebook accounts had adopted different identities in the past, only to later assume Moroccan identities. This meticulous manipulation of online personas serves to intensify the illusion of genuine support for Morocco’ stance on the Zionist entity.
Moroccan Committees Target Algerians
Eekad’s analysis of activity on the YouTube platform yielded similar results. These electronic committees underwent identity transformations, assuming Moroccan identities and garnering support as Moroccan accounts.
For instance, an account originally named “Ahmed Al-Hamadi” altered its identity to Moroccan within a mere month. Initially presenting itself as Moroccan, it launched vehement attacks against Algerians in multiple posts before altering its identity to Algerian and criticizing Morocco’s normalization efforts.
This “Al-Hamadi” case is not an isolated incident; the investigation uncovered similar instances, with two other accounts boasting comparable names and profiles. One portrayed a Moroccan identity and attacked Algerians, while the other assumed an Algerian identity to criticize Morocco. Analysis revealed that they were managed by the same entity or individual.
In a sobering conclusion, Eekad’s investigation unveiled a distressing pattern wherein Moroccan committees that currently target Palestinian resistance had previously directed their efforts towards Algerians, endorsing normalization and Zionist-Moroccan rapprochement while fanning the flames of hatred and division for an extended period.
The ramifications of these manipulative campaigns on the Arab world and the potential fallout for Morocco’s international relations remain subjects of deep concern. With these shocking revelations, the necessity of scrutinizing and safeguarding the digital landscape against such covert operations is more evident than ever.
