Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu to meet Elon Musk amid antisemitism storm

in news •  last year 

"Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will fly to California on Monday to meet Elon Musk, the tech entrepreneur accused by civil rights groups of amplifying anti-Jewish hatred on his X social media platform, formerly known as Twitter.

An official in Netanyahu's office on Thursday confirmed the meeting. Musk said on X that their talks would focus on artificial intelligence technology and not the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), with whom Musk is feuding over antisemitism on X.

The prime minister's office said Netanyahu, a champion of Israel's high tech sector, would meet Musk and others on developing artificial intelligence.

The Washington Post, which broke the news of the Musk-Netanyahu meeting, cited five people familiar with the situation as saying the meeting was the latest step in a campaign by Musk’s Jewish friends and allies to stave off the mounting criticism surrounding the increase in antisemitic speech on X."
