Anti-Israel Facebook Groups Infiltrated
[Canadian Jewish News] Paul Lungen - A group calling itself the Jewish Internet Defense Force (JIDF) took control of an Arabic-language Facebook group which set a goal of finding one million people who hate Israel within 90 days. The JIDF deleted more than 55,000 group members. Another Facebook group, "Eliminate Israel from Being," saw more than 5,000 members deleted after JIDF took it over. Facebook later returned control of the site to its administrators. JIDF said it took the action after Facebook staff ignored requests to remove the groups, which had published content the JIDF said violated Facebook's own terms of service which prohibit content deemed threatening or hateful.
