Facebook blocked Yair Netanyahu's son for anti muslim post

Tel Aviv, December 17: Facebook temporarily banned Yair Netanyahu, son of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, for posting anti-Muslim posts, the media reported.

According to reports, Yair’s Netanyahu Facebook account was blocked for 24 hours on Sunday after he called for “avenging the deaths” of two Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers who were killed at the West Bank shooting last week.



“Unbelievable. Facebook blocks me for 24 hours for simply criticizing it! Thought police,” Yari Netanyahu wrote on Twitter.

Facebook is yet to comment on this.

After the contentious Facebook post was removed, he wrote that the social media giant was “trying to shut our mouths in the only place where we have the right to express our opinions”.



Yari Netanyahu also posted a screenshot of the original post along with new posts criticizing Facebook.

“Do you know where there are no terror attacks? In Iceland and Japan. Coincidentally there’s also no Muslim population there,” he posted.



This is not the first time Yair Netanyahu has been in the highlights.

According to The Jerusalem Post, in 2017, Yair Netanyahu posted a diagram presenting antisemitic tropes such as Jewish billionaire George Soros, who funds left-wing causes and organizations in several countries.

“The post depicted Soros controlling the world via other conspiracy theory figures like lizard people, known as Reptilians, and the Illuminati or Freemasons,” the report added.
