Protests from various American Jewish organizations have led to the removal of Hamas incitement from Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and Instagram.
Simon Wiesenthal Center’s Rabbis Marvin Hier and Abraham Cooper urged the public to report hate sites on social media platforms which are fueling the current spate of attacks in Israel.
The rabbis also denounced:
Unfair and one-sided portrayal of Israeli terror victims in the media; the U.S. State Department’s outrageous depiction of the current situation as a ‘cycle of violence;’
The use of social media platforms to celebrate murderous attacks against innocent people and instructional terrorism tutorial videos; and
The BDS’ movement’s endorsement of the barbaric acts of terrorism and renewed calls to boycott Israel.
