Israeli officials have been publicly boasting about how obedient Facebook is when it comes to Israeli censorship orders.

Facebook had granted 95% of their 158 requests.

Israelis have virtually free rein to post whatever they want about Palestinians. Calls by Israelis for the killing of Palestinians are commonplace on Facebook, and largely remain undisturbed.

"Inflammatory speech posted in the Hebrew language … has attracted much less attention from the Israeli authorities and Facebook." One study found that "122,000 users directly called for violence with words like ‘murder,’ ‘kill,’ or ‘burn.’ Arabs were the No. 1 recipients of hateful comments." Yet there appears to be little effort by Facebook to censor any of that.

The above quotes taken from this article.

Why is this happening? Because Israel is a state which has control of media, including American owned media mogul Facebook.

Many of my friends tout Israel as the "only Democracy in the Middle East" but is a democracy a democracy when there is no freedom of the press? Israel controls the press in Israel. And not only in Israel. Many American media organizations are unwilling to publish factual articles in America criticizing Israeli abuses of Palestinians because they fear being accused of being "anti-Semite". Articles can be critical of, say Russia, or Syria, without being branded as "anti-Russian" or "anti-Syrian", or if they are, nobody cares, but for many media organizations criticizing Israel is taboo.
