Facebook’s Vice President Joel Kaplan traveled to Pakistan in July to assure the Pakistani government that it would remove “anti-Islam” material. That endeavor had already started before Kaplan’s trip. In mid-February, traffic to Jihad Watch from Facebook dropped suddenly by 90% and has never recovered. We do not post any hateful or provocative material and neither incite nor approve of violence, but Facebook is acting as judge, jury and executioner in all this. There is no appeal and no recourse.
They are coming for foes of jihad terror, one by one. I received this email from the operator of the Hungarian counter-jihad site Dzsihádfigyelö:
Please let me inform you about a recent case of “Facebook jihad” in Hungary. The content of our anti-islamization website on Facebook was reported by the Hungarian Muslim Community as “hate speech” and consequently the site has been permanently deleted. As you might know, the meaning of “Dzsihádfigyelö” is “jihad watch,” but the site is not an affiliate of Robert Spencer’s Jihad Watch. Our site has posted translations of news, videos and articles from counter-jihad sites like Jihad Watch, The Geller Report, Vladtepes, Gates of Vienna etc. for nearly a decade.
Screenshots prove that the main official organization of Muslims in Hungary (MIK) admits its role in getting Dzsihádfigyelö’s page banned, and rejoices over it afterwards in a closed Facebook group — calling the deletion of the page a “triumph.” The Muslims leaving comments below the post of MIK also discuss their “obligation” to respond to “attacks” (on Islam).
Even though Hungary is one of the few islands of free speech in the West, with government officials talking about “no more mosques,” Facebook is a different story. A couple of other counter-jihad Facebook sites in Hungary have already been got shut down or restricted by MIK.
Please find an article below about the case, translated from Breitportal, a conservative Hungarian website. Short summary by Dzsihádfigyelö, to the below article of Breitportal:
Hungarian counter-jihad news site gets shut down by the Muslim Community
A major Hungarian counter-jihad news site on Facebook, “Dzsihádfigyelö,” with nearly seven thousand followers and a maximum audience reach of 800,000 viewers, gets shut down by the Hungarian Muslim Community (Magyar Iszlám Közösség; MIK), after 8 years of successful operation.
Muslims Destroy Dzsihádfigyelö’s Site Posted by Breitportal, 14th November 2017:
Freedom of speech reigns supreme within the Hungarian Muslim Community. They managed to get Dzsihádfigyelö banned from Facebook.
A Flagship of Criticism of Islam in Hungary
As many of you know, Dzsihádfigyelö has for many years been informing Hungarian readers about the true nature of Islam. The site published content in religious and other issues that had not been available in Hungarian before.
The criticism of Islamic doctrine and opposition to jihad had been an integral part of Hungarian history. Dzsihádfigyelö pioneered in reviving it in the early 2000s – and now has lost its nearly 7000 followers in an instant.
Hungarian Muslims Did Not Like It
Not because the site incited hatred or violence – it did not. The reason was that the Hungarian Islamic Community (Magyar Iszlám Közösség; MIK) could not really handle criticism. The Muslim organization has bragged on Facebook that it had reported a content shared by Dzsihádfigyelö because of “hate speech and symbols that incite hatred.”
The enthusiastic Facebook censorship team has shut down the whole account in reaction to the report. The team suggested to “report it again” – if the page were reinstated and had the post in question reappeared.
Astonishing.
Antifa Protects Them
The anti-fascist network, interestingly enough, seems to maintain close contact with the Muslim communities. And they branded the Identity Generation a “neo-Nazi movement,” referring to the recent flash mob of the group. Then the flash mob was branded a “hate crime” targeting Muslims. (The IG has not incited to violence or has not attacked anyone. Their flash mob was part of freedom of speech.) Antifa wrote: “We stand for the Hungarian Muslim minority.”
Inciting to Stoning is Allowed
In the meantime, in a close Facebook group of the Hungarian Islamic Community, the “believers” are discussing if “reporting pages to Facebook” meant the restriction of freedom of speech. “I think it [getting pages reported and banned – translator] does not serve the goals, but raises moral issues,” wrote “János.” “István,” however, thinks that “it is our duty to pick up the gauntlet if Muslims and Islam are attacked.”
Incitement to hatred, however, seems to be the method of the other party: Zoltán Bolek, president of the Muslim community (MIK), has “liked” a comment (on Facebook) that calls for the stoning of a person. (Reported by Pesti Srácok)
The comment says: “Vince, you should be stoned for this hind of thinking.” And this comment was “liked” by the president of the Hungarian Islamic Community.
Freedom of Speech!
We encourage all the kind readers of Breitportal to “like and follow” Dzsihádfigyelö, which is our ideological ally regarding the issue of Islam:
Let’s show that there is freedom of speech in Hungary, and we will not cower and quail when the opposition does not like something.

mortimer says
Zuckerberg is a dhimmi without even knowing what a ‘dhimmi’ is.
Zuckerberg is oblivious to the Jew hatred in the Islamic source texts. The Islamic Trilogy (source texts) contain 9% Jew hatred, whereas, Mein Kampf contains slightly less… 7% Jew hatred.
Frank Anderson says
Mortimer, another of your posts that I agree with and highly admire. Thank you.
Custos Custodum says
Disagree.
Zuckface knows exactly what he is doing which is to slowly undermine real freedom for “ordinary” people to create a world where elites (Zuck naively includes himself) exercise unfettered power over an abject, impoverished populace: politically (no fuddy-duddy “free speech, civil rights, etc.), economically (be glad we let you slave 18 hours a day cleaning the toilets of your betters!), sexually.
Sadly, a few billion people will be found surplus to the requirements of Zuck, Slim and their friends and deleterious to Mother Gaia. These extra people will unfortunately have to “leave the herd” as cattle rancher say.
gravenimage says
I think Zuckerberg is just caving to the demands of Muslim countries because they are the only ones making demands, and appeasement–in the short run, anyway–is easier for business.
I don’t think he is even thinking much about the enabling of Jihad, or even the crushing of freedom of speech.
That doesn’t make this any less disgusting, though.
Angemon says
I agree, GI.
Charles says
And Remember Folks!
Any news, information, quotations from the very UN-holy koran OR true History is always to be considered as “Un-islamic” or “Anti-izlamic”!
This vast cult of blood and death, founded by the Prince of Darkness Himself (SATAN/allah) can not stand up to the full sun light of TRUTH! SO the full truth about izlam must be suppressed at all costs!
MFritz says
To much criticism is obviously not good for Zuckerbergs pyramid scheme to get even richer. So everything “bad” has to go.
Twitter does the same btw.
And, no it’s not about pandering to “lefties”, it’s only about money.
Westman says
I’ve thought about which animal Zuckerberg appears most like; decided on Giraffe since it has a long face and its “above it all” stance well represents the attitude of Zuckerberg’s, self professed, “smartest guy in the room”
“Giraffe-face” has nice ring but may be considered Giraffe-culture appropriation. My apologies to the Giraffe culture.

In Germany about 500-800 facebook accounts are deleted **DAILY**! Anyone or thing with >5,000 followers gets scrutinizes for anti-Islamic material, since this is right-wing/fascist/racist. Zuckerberg had a meeting with Merkel, about a year ago…
Facebook is assisted in its task by the ‘Wolfgang Amadeo Stiftung (Foundation)’, sounds nice, innocent and well cultured, no?
The Wolfgang Amadeo Stiftung was founded and is run by Annetta Kahane, a long term STASI operative, code name “Victoria”, and her STASI record is excellent, her superiors had nothing but praise for her. She’s now a friend with Barbara Lectre or Spectre. The Wolfgang Amadeo Stiftung is operating under the direct auspices of Heiko Maas (SPD), minister for justice…. The Wolfgang Amadeo Stiftung receives direct funding/financial support from the government, i.e., Heiko Maas and other sources. Anneta Kahane is highly regarded for her “fight against the right”. As a foundation it should function by contributions, not with state money – and certainly not make a profit! Her annual income is estimated to be well over €100,000.00; yes, ~$100k!
MFritz says
The Amodeo foundation is pretty much as biased as the Southern Poverty Law Centre.
Besides, Merkel doesn’t like ANY free speech as openly voicing criticism was the beginning of the end for the GDR where she grew up. And where she was allowed to graduate and habilitate.
Frank Anderson says
As in many cases there are at least 3 sides to most stories: Assuming Facebook generates revenue and profit from traffic, whatever it does to reduce traffic and promote evil will sooner or later bring it down. It pretense of neutrality and openness has been thrown away. Open bias is a terrific way to get rid of the targets of that bias.
Frank Anderson says
Typo: Should be “Its pretense. . .”

News from Europe/Germany
======================
The President of the Bundesnachrichtendienste (BND (external secret service)), Bruno Kahl, has warned on the 15th of November that there are 1 billion, ONE BILLION, people getting ready to come to Europe/EU. Europe’s entire population, from the Russian Amur and Ussuri rivers at the Chinese border to the Atlantic coast of Portugal is ~700-800 million people….
Herr Bruno Kahl is in office sine 2016. What he stated, and that was his main theme at the Hanns-Seidel-Stiftung in München, was the threat this sheer number is posing. Although, quite a few of these will want to make it to the US and or Canada – the latter of which has recently declared itself to a “post national state”, whatever that is.
The reaction of the media? As an example, the ‘Süddeutsche Zeitung’ (‘SouthernGerman Newspaper’), one of these so called conservative papers, well they were – once upon a time. So, what do they write? Quote: “BND chief warns of Russia as potential danger.” Unquote. Brother, they don’t even falsify statements and speeches any more. They simply invent new ones!
That reminds me of a little story: Shortly after the invention of the printing press governments began to print copies of official and important documents. To be stored separately so that these are safe from fires, and forgeries, i.e., something to compare with. This was done under the auspices of archivars or historians, often supervised by gov agents/representatives. The work was assisted by students or gifted pupils. OK, scene is set: Nuremberg, the archivar is approached with three documents. The assistant states that all three are different, but they ought to be identical in what they state. Moreover, they all carried some sort of seals, gov, princes, whatever. He said that only one of these can be true, so he asked which ones are the forgeries. The archivar said: “All of them!” – That was about 500 years ago…
Salute!

Voytek Gagalka says
That is the reason I dropped (mostly) using the Facebook recently (at end of last month) when they removed my own critical comment. Did I call for violence against Mohammedans? No. I only pointed that there is constant violence coming from them. Bang! I was suspended for 24 hours, 24 hours which stretched to almost whole week as they count minutes of usage (being on-line) not actual time. So I got enough. Since then I comment only here through WorldPress and also to other sites through Disqus.
Custos Custodum says
Disqus is also a censorship platform waiting to be activated when the time is ripe.

Zuckerberg is REVERSING his own MOTTO.
Zuckerberg is making the world MORE CLOSED to different opinions because of discriminatory Sharia.
Zuckerberg is making the world LESS CONNECTED by disconnecting those who are non-compliant with Sharia.
Zuckerberg is enforcing Sharia which discriminates against Zuckerberg.
Custos Custodum says
Zuck already lives in a mansion behind high walls, and has bought up all neighboring properties, sometimes by fraud. (Which itself shows what kind of person Zuck is.)
Zuck simply does not count on a future where he and his family and servants live in the same society as “ordinary” Fakebook users. Zuck himself memorably referred to early users with naive readiness to provide personal information as “dumbf..ks.”
Angemon says
No surprise here – Facebook’s goal is to maximize profits, and I’m certain that the investors think that being called “racist”, “bigot” or “islamophobe” is bad for business…

Mr Spencer, what facebook did is a very good marketing strategy.Do you think customers will stick to your products which they consider offensive?will they patronise it again? If they stop patronizing it, it means you have to close shop in that area that will reduce your return on investment.
