Tarek Fatah’s Facebook account shut down. Must be Wednesday.

March 6, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

He writes:

A message popped up stating that I had violated ‘community standards’ when I shared a picture showing a young Australian Muslim girl in hijab carrying a sign:

“Jews haven’t Learn (sic). They need [picture of swastika] more than before”.

I copied the picture from the Australian Jewish magazine J-Wire and posted it as my Facebook ‘cover’ with a caption denouncing Muslim anti-Semitism. My posting of the picture was clearly an act condemning anti-Jewish hatred among my own Muslim community, not endorsing it.

However, someone in Facebook was so offended at my exposure of Muslim anti-Semitism, they shut me down on the charge of spreading hatred against Jews.

I’ve been on this beat a while.
