Facebook Facilitates Israel Hatred
April 21, 2009 / 6:33 pm • By Dr. Melissa ClouthierThe Fan Page on Facebook is not subtle. The last status update reads:
Israel is not fighting war against Terrorism; it’s fighting WAR AGAINST HUMANITY and INNOCENSE!… “Fuck Israel”.
It’s also not very literate, but that sort of enhances the foaming-at-the-mouth sputtering. Distressingly, there are 121,363 fans of this page. That’s a lot of people who hate Israel.
I wonder where to find the “Hate Women” fan page. I’m sure it’s close to the “Hate fill-in-the-blank racial epithet-here” fan page. And of course, there’s the I Hate Iran Group with a whopping 117 members.
But the Fan Page isn’t anti-Jewish, no sirree. It isn’t antisemitic. They LOVE the Jews they just want the state where Jews live destroyed. And the names of the haters aren’t Muslim. Nope. They’re just your average open-minded Middle Easterner expressing their free speech.
This Facebook Fan Page would be an example of ignorant philistines using the modern Western culture against itself. These people do not believe in free self-expression. They do not believe in individual rights. And they most certainly do not believe in Israel’s right to self-determination free from being bombed by their neighbors. They are racists and fascists and it is shameful that Facebook allows this group to exist when similar Fan Pages aiming hate at other groups or people would be banned.
If Facebook is a safe community, why is this tolerated? And if it is tolerated, will the Ku Klux Klan be allowed to start a Fan Page with pictures of burning crosses? Just trying to clarify their terms of service here.

I would comment with how smart you are for seeing this but the sad fact is it does not take a genius. The problem is the people who are willfully ignorant and racists. Thanks though for bringing it to the forefront of discussion. It is an important problem.

I’m an admin of the “F**K Islam” group on FBook. We see the double standard on a daily basis where we have to not only censor what’s being said due to Muzzie baiting and such on the board but we’ve been shut down more than once. This has all happened whilst this other site has been in existence and a breast cancer awareness site was hacked by muzzies who claim breast cancer is a “Zionist conspiracy”.

I am an Arab and I hope you see what we see Israel is doing. In their latest war in Gaza they killed 1324 Gazans including 437 children under the age of 16, 110 women and 123 elderly men. How would you all react if Arabs or Muslims did this? It would be the end of the world and you would strike all of our countries with nuclear bombs. However, Israel is allowed to do this because OUR blood is cheap to you all. Our blood is not only cheap but you all want to forbid us from our rights to speak against our killers. Does this sound fair to you? Why don’t you all give us the same rights you give for yourselves? Of course I do not agree with the use of any bad or offensive words like the example you mentioned but all of us in the region absolutely agree that Israel is a racist state that persecutes people just because they are Arabs.

First off, where’d you get your stats? Here in the West, we require one to cite where they got them.
When Arabs/Muslims do things like kill 2974 people in NY, we declare war. The Muslims decided to hide amongst churches, schools, and use ambulances to shuttle around Gaza. Want evidence? Go to youtube.
There is only one state in the Middle East in which Jews and Arabs have constitutionally equal rights to healthcare, education, voting, employment, and housing. It’s Israel. Jews don’t go to Egypt to get equal rights but Arabs/Muslims go to Israel.
Maybe you should take your head out of your rectum and see the world that isn’t clouded by the koran. Muslims are the bigots, not Jews.

Is it fair to judge 300 million Arabs or 1.5 billion Muslims because of the acts of 19 criminals?
In our region we also demand proofs of statements. Here is what an Israeli newspaper reported about the testimonies of Israeli soldiers themselves who participated in the war:
“‘That’s the beauty of Gaza. You see a man walking, he doesn’t have to have a weapon, and you can shoot him,’ one soldier told Danny Zamir, the head of the Rabin pre-military academy, who asked him why a company commander ordered an elderly woman to be shot.
The squad leader said most of the men under his command felt ‘the lives of Palestinians … is something very, very less important than the lives of our soldiers, so as far as they are concerned, they can justify it that way’.
Another disturbing element reported by the soldiers was the role of military rabbis in distributing booklets that framed the fighting as a religious war. ‘All these articles had a clear message: we are the Jewish people, we have come to the land by miraculous means, and now we have to fight to remove the Gentiles who are getting in our way and preventing us from occupying the Holy Land… a great many soldiers had a feeling throughout this operation of a religious war,’ said one soldier.’”
And I challenge you to check the following website and look at each photo shown there. These were ALL photos taken just few months ago when you all were celebrating New Year’s Eve and we were weeping for our children who were burned to death or burried alive:

Can you tell me this is not racism? I hope you all remember that we are not talking against the Jews but only against the Zionists who are butchering us and want to displace all of our people out of their land. There are many Jews against the Zionist racism!

The apologists on here should hang their heads in shame. The jihadists deserve what they get and more. They teach their CHILDREN to kill. This link (be warned has some graphic images of nudity on there also) shows a video of a 12 year old boy brutally beheading a man….draw your own conclusions about the evil we fight, but be assured islam, practiced as the koran instructs, is evil.

Just because I am defending my people’s blood you think I should I hang my head in shame? I posted photos of our dead children and then you say we all deserve this because you consider every single one of us even the little children “Jihadists”! You posted a video of some crazy people who claim to be Muslims and then you expect from people to hate all Muslims. I am sure you want to exterminate all of us.
You see we don’t mention any religion and we don’t want to humiliate anyone but you ALWAYS want to humiliate all of us! I am trying to have a civilized conversation here but I am sorry I have to reply to such hateful comment.

Awwww, poor baby. “Hateful comment”? Have you read the koran? It’s a hateful book against Jews, Christians, atheists, and women. Your koran (I refuse to use the capital K on it) instructs others on how to behave. You’re supposed to emulate Mo: a pedophile, a bigot, a misogynist (woman hater), a murderer, a pirate.
Who is the real misunderstander of Islam? Is it those who have perpetrated over 13000 terrorist attacks since September 10, 2001? Is it those who seek to take over Pakistan? Is it those who seek to eliminate Israel? No, the real misunderstanders of Islam are those that think it’s peaceful.
I love how you think that it’s all the Zionists fault. “It’s the Zionists who took our land”, “It’s the Zionists fault that the Arab economy is in the toilet”, “It’s the Zionists fault we can’t do anything”. Maybe it’s your religion that’s the problem. I can’t wait for Israel to deliver another pounding to the rest of the Middle East. Perhaps then it’ll be settled once and for all.
