For the second time in a month, Facebook took down the page of the Jewish Defence League of Canada, citing its “community standards” policy on “dangerous organizations.”The social media giant removed the JDL’s Facebook page earlier this month.
The JDL believed it was because of its well-known logo, a raised fist silhouetted on a yellow Star of David.
Within days, the JDL put up a new page, with a new logo.
But on Feb. 15, Facebook took down that page, too.
Also taken down on Feb. 15 was the public group page “Jewish Defence League of Canada."
Both JDL pages "are not allowed to be on Facebook, so they were correctly removed," Facebook spokesperson Meg Sinclair told The CJN via email.
She sent a link to Facebook’s "community standards" and its section on "dangerous organizations," which states that it does not allow "any organizations that are engaged in the following to have a presence on Facebook: terrorist activity, or organized criminal activity."
So now it's official. Facebook believes that Jews have no right to defend themselves against antisemitism, and organizations that disagree are to be branded "terrorist" or "organized crime" and are to be banned from Facebook.
I am so so so glad I deleted my Facebook account years ago. Every time I read something new about them, it makes me even more disgusted.
