I’m probably wrong, but the way I read this is that a far left zealot is upset with Zuckerberg because he won’t ban enough websites - the zealot is stressing Holocaust deniers, but I think “hate speech” before the 2020 election probably means us. And I read Zuckerberg as being very cautious in his censorship just now to reduce the chances of Facebook being broken apart. After he thinks Facebook is safe, wouldn’t be surprised to see censorship go full steam.

Chaos over U.S. troops in Iraq as Pentagon insists they WON’T withdraw despite general leading anti-ISIS coalition saying they’ll move ‘out of Iraq’ in draft letter released by mistake amid anger over attack that killed Qassem Soleimani

FTA:
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley told reporters that the letter was ‘a draft. It was a mistake. It was unsigned. It should not have been released.’

The draft was ‘poorly worded’ and ‘implies withdrawal. That is not what’s happening,’ Milley declared.

The U.S. military had appeared to inform Baghdad that it was preparing for ‘movement out of Iraq,’ a day after the Iraqi parliament urged the government in a non-binding resolution to oust foreign troops.

The head of the Pentagon task force in Iraq, Brigadier General William Seely, sent a draft letter to the head of Iraq’s joint operations command.

‘Sir, in deference to the sovereignty of the Republic of Iraq, and as requested by the Iraqi Parliament and the Prime Minister, [the coalition] will be repositioning forces over the course of the coming days and weeks to prepare for onward movement,’ Seely wrote. He added: ‘We respect your sovereign decision to order our departure.’
