I’m not usually one to defend Facebook, but it might have something to do with (and is possibly being done to counteract) this massive state-sponsored disinformation campaign:

In case of paywall:
And yet all of Israel’s disinformation is allowed to stay up…
What do you base that claim on? The article doesn’t mention it.
Edit: Your silence is also an answer. Ironic, talking about misinformation and spreading it yourself…
lol my silence is not an answer. I don’t spend inordinate amounts of time on the internet so have no need to respond within a day much less a week. Here’s one example of the numerous misinformation that Israel has been spreading, coming from a news source that actually helped spread Israel’s disinformation.

You evidently had enough time to post elsewhere, so it’s not unreasonable to think you might’ve read my reply already.
How is the WP article showing misinformation? It basically boils down to “Israel alleged something and provided some evidence, but we think it’s not conclusive”. It does not show that Israel knowingly lied about anything, which is what you’re insinuating.

Evidently? Huh?

The article is literally about how Israel claimed a bunch of things as complete truths and then every single thing they claimed was wrong.
This has been the case for almost everything Israel has said until this point. They lied about hostages being raped, they lied about not going to bomb specific areas, they lied about certain areas being safe for Palestinians, they lied about only trying to kill hamas, and have killed over 20k civilians as a result, they lied about not actively trying to kill journalists. The list is endless. It’s perfectly clear that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinians and if you support that, I’m sorry but you’re absolutely evil.

This “you’re either for Palestine or a genocide supporter” mindset is half the reason this conflict still exists, the other half is the “you’re either for Israel or a terrorist supporter” mindset. I’m sure it feels great to have a one-dimensional world view, but not everyone is either for or against one side.
All I was asking for is a source for your claim that Israel is spreading misinformation and that said misinformation is allowed to proliferate. The one source you provided is inadequate because it doesn’t have any proof of Israeli lies, it just says that Israeli-provided proof is inconclusive. Let alone your claim that the alleged misinformation is not removed…
We’re done here, clearly there’s no good faith discussion to be had.
