Theory Briefing
- ZOG posts spiked more than threefold during the 2026 Iran war, according to a new study tracking the conspiracy theory online.
- The ZOG theory falsely claims a secret Jewish or Israeli cabal secretly controls governments and global institutions.
- The surge raises the question of whether wartime conflict generates new conspiracy believers or simply emboldens existing ones to post more.
- Researchers tracking the spike can measure volume, but separating cause from pre-existing sentiment remains a core challenge.
