AI analyzes Telegram discourse on Israel-Palestine conflict

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new study analyzed over 87,000 Telegram messages from pro-Israel and pro-Palestine channels between May 2021 and June 2026. Using sentiment analysis, stance detection, and framing analysis, researchers found that both communities use similar vocabulary related to death and victims. However, pro-Israel channels predominantly used neutral, report-style language, while pro-Palestine channels employed more negative sentiment, reflecting the distinct discourse positions of an acting party versus an affected party.
