New York – The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) is butting heads with Facebook reps as to what constitutes anti-Semitism after the social media giant failed to honor the group’s request that a page titled “Jewish Ritual Murder” be taken down.

ADL national director Abraham H. Foxman said in a statement that “The ‘Jewish Ritual Murder’ page on Facebook perpetuates age-old anti-Semitic propaganda, and it should be removed immediately. It is profoundly offensive, has no socially redeeming value, and adds nothing to any legitimate marketplace of ideas.”
The ADL is charging that the ‘Jewish Ritual Murder’ page’s accusations that Jews practice ritual murder are unsubstantiated.
CNET.com (http://cnet.co/1e8CrZh) reports, that a Facebook rep referred the complaint to the company’s ‘community standards’ policy, which states, “Facebook does not permit hate speech. While we encourage you to challenge ideas, institutions, events, and practices, we do not permit individuals or groups to attack others based on their race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, disability or medical condition.”
So far, the ADL has failed to convince Facebook that the ‘Jewish Ritual Murder’ page violates its standards and the page, at least for now, will stay.
What would the world be like without hate speech on the internet? Thanks Mr. Zuckerberg. You are a credit to your own people on this issue.
The declaration of Facebook not allowing hate against any group is typical Liberal garbage.
When it comes to the Jews this rule is ignored! Profits speak louder than principles!
Bottom Line: Facebook stock and business is on it’s way out. Whatever it takes to make money Facebook will do it…
Another Jewish traitor, Zuckerberg.
I wonder, before Foxman started all this, how many people even knew that that vile page existed? And how many went to “check it out” since then? Doesn’t matter. As long as Foxman can keep himself in the news, it’s worth it to him.
Jews in high places have always been only a headache for us in all ages. Take the Hollywood big brass and how they bent over backward not to get the USA involved in helping the Yidden in Europe. So as not to tarnish (sic) their image.
