As an Israeli who is center-left for the most part, I think this is wrong. Like very wrong. Israel did some things right, and some things not very right but influencing the public's opinions using some kind of secretive agreement is wrong. Call me naive, but I believe that truth finds a way and this hack/leak is living proof of that.
But I should also mention that the article is biased and shows data that it doesn't back up. The New York Times mentioned that about 60,000 people were left homeless, and this article twisted it to 150,000 without a source. Also using words like "brutal assault" are less than professional in this sensitive context.
