Everyone knew it was bullshit when they claimed it, but even now that it’s admitted to be false, it’s not going to have any effect on governments support of their genocide in Gaza.
The propaganda isn’t for the leaders of other countries, it’s so the voters in those countries don’t replace the leaders for funding genocides.
I’d like to think no leader of a country is really dumb enough to still be believing any claims made by the Israeli government, but it’s hard to tell these days
Ironically I think learning deeply about the holocaust is a big contribution to my outspoken opposition to mass killings of civilians, such as by the IDF. If you are able to study history and see the overall patterns of violence and oppression then you will be more likely to speak out when you see the same patterns. Even if the perpetrators are the descendants of former victims.
Somebody learned the right lessons or maybe all of genz did… Prior generations learned that genocide is fine as long as my team is doing it? Good to see some change finally coming 80 years later.

It can have effects on public sentiment which can influence leadership’s behavior. I would argue this has already happened to a notable degree.
Yeah Gen Z has hard time understanding why we blank checm support Israel doing genocide…
I guess they need more Holocaust history classes to fix that!
