Analysis / Bias
Israel365news.com reports news on Israel and the Middle East from an Israeli Biblical perspective. Articles and headlines contain emotionally loaded wording such as this ‘THE LOS ANGELES TIMES’ AND ITS ABSURD ABU AKLEH CONSPIRACY THEORY. When it comes to sourcing information, they sometimes do not provide hyperlinks, such as in this supposed scientific article ISRAELI PSYCHOLOGY RESEARCHERS TEST HOW BRAIN RESPONDS TO EMOTIONS THAT DEVIATE FROM SOCIAL NORMS.
Editorially, all opinion pieces support Israel and a conservative perspective. Many op-eds are opposed to the left with articles such as this CANCEL CULTURE ISN’T JUST FOR ACADEMICS ANYMORE and KNESSET MEMBER WARNS: BIDEN VISITING ISRAEL TO MEDDLE IN ELECTIONS. This article is rife with conspiracy theories, such as in this quote “Maoz’s warning is firmly based on past experiences, as meddling in Israeli politics is a tradition in the Democratic party.”
The website also promotes pseudoscience and conspiracy related to Covid-19 ISRAELI STUDY LINKS COVID VACCINES TO 25% INCREASE IN CARDIAC ARREST. Further, they promote Christian Zionism and often use the Bible as a source of factual information. In general, Israel365 News is a moderate conspiracy and pseudoscience website with a strong conservative bias that promotes Israeli Government propaganda.

- The World Health Organization Will Have Authority To Lock Down All of America – False
Overall, we rate Israel365 News as right-biased and a conspiracy/pseudoscience website based on promoting false or misleading claims related to science and the bible. (D. Van Zandt 12/11/2023)
