Facebook blocked
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s son Yair for 24 hours after he
wrote a post criticizing the social media platform as “thought police” and
sharing previously banned content.
Yair Netanyahu blasted the website on Sunday for removing an
earlier post in which he called for “avenging the deaths” of two Israeli
soldiers killed last week by Palestinian gunmen and calling for the expulsion
of Palestinians. He shared a screenshot of the earlier post in violation of
Facebook’s community rules.
Facebook deleted a post by Netanyahu last week in which he
said he would “prefer” if “All the Muslims leave the land of Israel.”
Facebook had no immediate comment. Netanyahu’s son has
drawn media criticism for crude social media posts and a life of excess at
public expense.
