Given the PR battle waged by the Arab and many Muslim countries and their supporters within the Western and Asian areas, Israel needs to pedal hard to even stay in the race.

I'm guessing there is already a nice handful of these supporters out there.

You can tell. They are sort of like Nvidia/AMD video card trolls.

Whoa I wonder if anyone here may be approached for this project? Or has approached the Israeli government or its contacts about it? Seems like an intriguing endeavor
Intriguing?
Only if you are a Zionist who doesn't mind telling porkies. The way to spot them online is to ask if they think Israel has nuclear weapons. They will say that they doubt it or are not sure (official "neither confirm nor deny", israeli policy.)
Israel does, of course, which rather weakens their attack on Iran for trying to acquire them.
Mordechai Vanunu, an Israeli scientist, took photos of Israeli nuclear devices in the Negev research facility in the 1980's. He was captured by Mossad in Italy, drugged and flown back to Israel. He has spent many years in prison as a whistleblower (see Vanunu,wiki).

So, you will be expected to deny that you know anything about Vanunu.
Give it a try...

Oh, please. Israel has the best propaganda in the business, particularly in the US.

Paid to troll for Israel? I'm shocked, I tell you, shocked that anybody would even dream it possible, particularly when there's a handbook on the subject-

Very easy "job" for the said students, just accuse any criticism against Israel as "anti-Semitic" and mention Hitler occasionally. :whiste:

This is nothing new, where do you think they learned it from? Remember the ATi v NVidia shill war in this forum years ago? The most daily hits on Reddit every month come from some air force base in America. Big Brother is not only watching you, he is telling you what to think.

On the flip side, the internet has also allowed the infiltration of ideas from foreign perspectives into American lives. For instance, I was shocked at how many people had no idea that RT.com was a Russian news outlet. If you watch it is a completely westernized, well produced, news broadcast. Most people don't even ask the question what is RT because it is so professionally done.

I have literally never seen anyone on any discussion board challenge the fact that Israel has nukes. This has been widely known since the 1970's. I'm guessing you're talking about a very limited number of people making this argument. It seems odd to me since I've been around several political discussion boards since about 2000 and some devoted entirely to the discussion of Israel and middle east affairs and I have never seen this position being taken.

I fail to see how one country having nuclear weapons, which BTW they've likely had for over 40 years now, weakens any argument in opposition to any other country acquiring them. According to this logic, we should all welcome everyone arming themselves to the teeth with nukes just because Israel has them. Are you seriously arguing that because one country has nukes we should support one or more other countries having them? You realize that once a country has a acquired nukes, it is a practical impossibility to ever disarm them, which is why we should oppose any and all nuclear proliferation, regardless of who has already managed to acquire them and who hasn't.
