Karen and I are proud that our cousin, Assemblyman Dov Hikind (he has a D after his name, but in fact he’s a solid Conservative) stands up to Jew-hatred and Jew-Haters at every opportunity.
Dov is now calling attention to the fact that Facebook has decided that the Jewish State does not exist. Presumably, Israel has been disappeared by some evil little Facebook programmer. Or was this a decision made by a committee of overbred overeducated leftists?
We should all drop a note to Facebook and let them know that they are committing a cyber-Holocaust.
INN:
New York State Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) is calling on Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg to take immediate action on Facebook’s “shameful” exclusion of Israel. When creating a background profile on Facebook, users are given 50 nationality options. These options include Palestine, while Israel is conspicuously absent.
“Palestine is not even a country,” said Hikind. “How did it end up as an option? Well, we all know the answer to that. I suspect some racist programmer was able to slip that by while purposefully excluding Israel as an option. That’s insulting and Facebook should be held accountable.”
“Mark Zuckerberg has been quoted as saying, ‘As a Jew, my parents taught me that we must stand up against attacks on all communities.’ I am calling on Mr. Zuckerberg to get to the bottom of this attack on Jews and Israelis. The exclusion of Israel from Facebook, a publicly traded company, while Palestine is included is no accident—it’s a purposeful, racist insult that must be addressed immediately.”
Hikind also asked Facebook users to utilize the “report a problem” feature on the Facebook Help menu to enlighten Facebook of the issue.
Ariel Chaim Avrech, ZT'L, May His Righteous Memory be a Blessing.

Both Twitter and Facebook are effectively monopolies that are attempting to use their power to push far left wing politics on a number of levels. The twitter “lynch mob” is a particularly unwelcome addition to the zeitgeist. They both need to be broken up via anti-trust law, and soon.

Here we go again. Someone wants to make a political statement by using the Palestine issue, and it’s getting old. They know it’s going to be reversed, and yet they think just because they want Israel not to exist, that they can make it happen in some technical way…
