• Palestinians create a third 'intifada' page on Facebook, Facebook responds by deleting it

Anything inciting violence is deleted by Facebook, regardless of if it's Israel or not. Why is this surprising? It's not a double standard at all.

[editline]30th March 2011[/editline] There is a double standard when it's right in your fucking face.[/QUOTE] Cool. Could you provide examples of such pages that are not A:deleted by the moderators of the group, B:a group large enough to be noticed and not some obscure page with less than 100 likes, and C:actually calling for violence and not just self-righteous wanking as I have seen in most pages.
The size doesn't matter. And there are hundreds of groups, I'm not going to hunt through every single one of them looking for comments i've seen.
Well it would help to have some proof rather than "I've seen them". The smaller a group is the less likely someone is tohave reported it. It's highly likely no-one other than a small group of them have even seen it so neither have Facebook staff.
First of all, I don't think you're some champion of Facebook being well run and in capable hands. Ironic that you're an Israeli apologist, and you defend this. And I'm curious, how the hell did they even make a threat? to whom?
Not like moderation of violent threats is too difficult. As long as someone points it out to them, it's easy to take down. It's not perfect, but if someone points it out then why can't it be? I dunno exactly how they made threats, it's all in Arabic. Still not hard to make a general threat to kill Israelis, let's just say they were encouraging people to kill them. Not a direct threat to someone, just rather violent rhetoric that's considered inciting violence. You've seen Israeli's talking about killing Palestinians, just replace the words. I don't get how I'm an Israeli apologist, that term never made any sense to me. I argue opposing to you, are you a Palestinian apologist?
It's understandable to remove such groups if it directly tells you to act with violence.
[i]oops, obviously meant facebook[/i] [QUOTE=The LocalFlavor;28888702]uh, no, you see shithead racists calling to kill Palestinians all over israeli pages.[/quote] And it's disgusting and should be removed, but people don't report it - most likely because the groups aren't as big. [QUOTE=The LocalFlavor;28888702]There is a double standard when it's right in your fucking face.[/QUOTE] Just like you, I can find small groups in support of both Israel or Palestine, calling for the use of violence against the other. Stop pretending that because it's anti-Israel it's getting special treatment. [editline]30th March 2011[/editline] In the end, it's a loss for Facebook. They remove something, they get done for not supporting "freedom of speech", or they let it be, and they get done with allowing the incitement of violence.
Yeah you actually can't fight this one, folks. It's completely right to remove a page calling for violence, regardless of who the violence is against. Just because there are unremoved pages calling for violence against Arabs doesn't give you the right to maintain pages calling for violence against Israel - eye for an eye, much?
Come on guys, [i]three[/i] intifadas? Intifada? Intifadi? Now you're just being silly! I could see one, perhaps two...

[QUOTE=FZE;28891539]Come on guys, [i]three[/i] intifadas? Intifada? Intifadi? Now you're just being silly! I could see one, perhaps two...[/QUOTE] Just another PR mission by the arabs, nothing special.
Zuckerberg is a Jew, its hardly surprising.
[QUOTE=Vasili;28892366]Zuckerberg is a Jew, its hardly surprising.[/QUOTE] And you're obviously a fool, so it's hardly surprising that you'd suggest something as stupid as that.
What? That a lot of Jews are Zionist and biased towards Israel and lobby US politicians to fund billions into their defence? I think its rather realistic.
[QUOTE=Vasili;28892424]What? That a lot of Jews are Zionist and biased towards Israel and lobby US politicians to fund billions into their defence? I think its rather realistic.[/QUOTE] If you want to believe that Zuckerburg really gave the order to remove that page, feel free, as ridiculous as that thought is, however, any page on Facebook that incites violence to any group of people or persons is removed from the website regardless of content. You seem to be suggesting as if it was removed because it was anti-Israel - be "realistic". Anything calling for the deaths of people is going to be removed from the website. The same goes for anti-Palestine crap.
[QUOTE=Vasili;28892366]Zuckerberg is a Jew, its hardly surprising.[/QUOTE] He's atheist you idiot [quote] Zuckerberg was raised Jewish, including having his bar mitzvah when he turned 13, although he has since described himself as an atheist. [/quote]

How futile + retarded the complaint is [editline]31st March 2011[/editline] oh no the palestinians are launching bottle rockets at us whatever will we do [img]http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsystem/emoticons/emot-qq.gif[/img]

[editline]31st March 2011[/editline] jesus, that is actually the most retarded argument i've ever heard for allowing the incitement of hate - and i didn't think someone could argue for it.

Palestine will never get a their own sovereign state. There will be fighting in Israel until one of them finally wins.
[QUOTE=Derubermensch;28886754]Why is it when I see the words "Israel" or "Jewish Organization" in an article about Palestinian resistance movements, everything starts to turn red and I get filled with rage?[/QUOTE] Both sides are as bad as each other stop being anti-semetic.
[QUOTE=crackberry;28894502]Palestine will never get a their own sovereign state. There will be fighting in Israel until one of them finally wins.[/QUOTE] No one will "win", it's upsetting.
[QUOTE=jaykray;28894617]No one will "win", it's upsetting.[/QUOTE] Well, there isn't going to be peace either. Both governments, both Palestinian and ours, are led by morons. And the citizens of both populations pretty much hate each other because of what the other has done. And that graph there is quite obvious because it was us who started the war against the Palestinians and it was pretty much we who attacked them. Shit, we just keep bombing each other for no real reason.
