Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Twitter says tweets calling for the destruction of Israel don’t violate its rules

Aug 1, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

However, tweets dissenting from the far-Left agenda have gotten many people banned. Twitter is one of the primary means of communication today, and it is astoundingly corrupt. All of the other social media giants are corrupt in the same way. If this isn’t remedied quickly, we could soon see the end of the United States as a free republic. Leftists are already actively working toward that goal in Seattle and Portland.

More on this story. “Twitter to Knesset: Imam Khamenei’s ‘Eliminate Israel’ Posts Don’t Violate Rules,” Al Manar, July 30, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Twitter said on Wednesday that the tweets in which Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution in Iran Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei calls for the destruction of the Zionist entity do not violate the company’s rules.

An official from Twitter told the Israeli Knesset said that Imam Khamenei’s posts on eliminating the Zionist entity do not violate the company’s rules against hate speech, and indicated that they are considered mere “foreign policy saber-rattling.”

“We have an approach toward leaders that says that direct interactions with fellow public figures, comments on political issues of the day, or foreign policy saber-rattling on military-economic issues are generally not in violation of our rules,” Ylwa Pettersson, Twitter’s head policy for the Nordic countries and Israel, told the Knesset’s Committee for Immigration, Absorption and Diaspora Affairs, via video-conference, Israeli media reported….

    It’s official. Twitter is the new Nazi Party of the US. Anyone who defends Jews will be disappeared.

    Dorsey says this because he’s a member of the soros Nazi cabal and he wants to send all the Jews and dep[orables to concentration camps for disposal.

      Twitter, not FB.

    The Iranian clergy is in for a genocidal plan. It’s not “common” saber-rattling. They’re serious.
    Iran is weeks away from nukes, and they promise to kill us with them. Meanwhile, most Americans want to end all wars and eat ice cream. Iran is the more immediate threat, being so close to nukes, so they’re quite happy to see us all distracted by everything else, giving them cover to finish their assembly, attaching the warheads to their ICBMs.
    This is Total War, for all the marbles, and we’d better wise up quick.

    Has the UN purchased twitter or has twitter purchased the UN?

    Trump should test that: call for the destruction of Iran. See how fast it is censored. Would be funny watching twitter squirm.

    Twitter is just another way for the mob to scream more loudly for what it wants.

    Hate speech is as arbitrary as the one that defines it.

    ………………

    Just appalling. So genocide is fine?

      They just think it’s comical exaggeration and don’t really care.

      You know because “foreigners” are so excitable and get emotional over nothing.
      This is Nordic insularity. I don’t think they enjoyed the results of this “saber-rattling” when Breivik tapped into it though, using jihadi tactics to kill a bunch of Norwegian teens..

        You may well be right–I have heard this sort of tosh myself.

    I wonder what would happen if I fired off a tweet saying Silicon Valley should be bombed out of existence.

    That wouldnt come under this sick freak’s “freedom of expression” i’m gonna guess. All of these psycho tech nerds need to be stopped.

    Anytime you ban freedom of speech you are toying with killing all other freedoms as well.

    • gravenimage says

      Calling for genocide is not freedom of speech–pretty much the only thing that is not.

    Anyone who knows history knows islam supported catholic Nazi Germany. (Reichstag 12 November 1933) catholics’ call such a statement hateful because they don’t know their own religion and they spend too much time waiting for their local priest to inform them. It’s not going to happen; especially with the lost of revenue at state.
