Facebook excludes Israel as country option, includes 'Palestine'
Arutz Sheva ^ | 2/4/18

Posted on 02/04/2018 2:40:14 PM PST by markomalley

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."

Facebook is an abomination. An oozing infection on the internet.

I would think the Jewish Mark Zuckerberg would not be in favor of this.

Facebutt is EVIL

Unfortunately, FR's backup is on that putrid site, but when FR goes down, I'd rather just wait it out.

I recommend very highly that all adults get off of or out of Facebook. It is clearly a propaganda machine for the Muslims amoung us. It spies on everyone and uses the data for its own ends. Why stay on it?

Zuckerberg is NOT a Jew, no matter what he says.

He became an Atheist, and has looked into Buddhism.
That said, he’s a POS.

If you own Facebook stock sell it. Because the trend for them is down.

Israel is a country, Palestine is not. Regardless of how one might feel about that, why even bother attempting to deny basic geography?

To prove my point re 'EVIL' above, you may have deleted it, but facebutt will NEVER let go of your particulars.

There was a time long ago when it was rather innocuous, but it has long since become just another borg, if not an outright adjunct of FBI, NSA, etc.

This would stop if people dumped Facebook. But they won’t.

This is interesting:

A Jewish politician

Calls out a Jewish entrepreneurfor not recognizing Israel. Hmmm...

Those quotes are from Wikipedia.

Keep it up, Zuckerberg. Keep waging war on Christians and God’s restoration of Israel.

Don’t say you weren’t warned. You wouldn’t have listened anyways.

Because all those nobel prizes in like every category (except peace) would have totally been by PaliSimians if it hadn’t been for those mean jews forcing them to spend all that aid money on weapons and tunnels
