"As a Counterterrorism and Dangerous Organizations policy manager, Byrne’s entire job was to help form policies that would most effectively thwart groups like Azov. Then one day, this was no longer the case. “They’re no longer neo-Nazis,” Byrne recalls a policy manager explaining to her somewhat shocked team, a line that is now the official position of the White House.
Shortly after the delisting, The Intercept reported that Meta rules had been quickly altered to “allow praise of the Azov Battalion when explicitly and exclusively praising their role in defending Ukraine OR their role as part of the Ukraine’s National Guard.” Suddenly, billions of people were permitted to call the historically neo-Nazi Azov movement “real heroes,” according to policy language obtained by The Intercept at the time.
Byrne and other concerned colleagues were given an opportunity to dissent and muster evidence that Azov fighters had not in fact reformed. Byrne said that even after gathering photographic evidence to the contrary, Meta responded that while Azov may have harbored Nazi sympathies in recent years, posts violating the company’s rules had sufficiently tapered off.'"

Yes stating you like visiting an Apartheid state while it is in the middle of a genocide is the same as saying ‘kill all the Palestinians’
How else would you interpret someone saying “good to be back in Nazi Germany” at the height of the Holocaust.
You are not expected to participate in every boycott. If you cannot avoid using something you can keep using it. But if you do not care much about a certain brand and it is on the boycott list, consider using alternatives
Boycots are not only for consumers. They can also be implemented by vendors. Stripe is a large company, but it has competitors.
An Anydesk license is not that expensive
SadleyItsBradley is the bane of every developer trying to keep a secret.
The ultimate goal is for their governments to recognize the genocide convention and immediately halt arms shipments to Israel. Primarily the US, the UK and Germany.
The more of this evidence comes to light the more obvious it becomes to the layman their government is lying through their teeth.
Get rid of the FTC and NHTSA and boom. They don’t have to work and he can sell them.
Smart move. Never give away your bargaining chip to the US. They will not reward you for it.
That turned out to be nothing. They had an independent investigation done by a company specialized in it.
Ends in 2022 💀
Thank you for bringing receipts. I had not found the Almaydeen article.
I still wonder where the quote comes from as even Almaydeen does not attribute it. But they are indeed a more credible source on this.
I’m not going to bother with the Israeli government link. And UNWatch is funded by Israel so same thing for that.
But I did I click the Guardian link which led to https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2024/sep/30/israel-attacks-live-blog-lebanon-yemen-hamas-hezbollah-news-updates-middle-east-crisis?filterKeyEvents=false&page=with%3Ablock-66fa3c0f8f08441851818975#block-66fa3c0f8f08441851818975.
But that does not cite where Hamas said it either.
No UNRWA is not saying that either. The media is saying Israel claims that Hamas said that he was Hamas.
I actually went through quite a few articles and even translated the Arab page linked on Wikipedia which turned out to be complete gibberish. So I am currently wondering if this entire thing is made up because it really looks like it.
Allegations of 9 people in an organization of 12.000 being Hamas is one thing.
Extrapolating that to all UNRWA funding going to Hamas is an amazing stretch of reality.
By the way can you link the Hamas announcement of this person being Hamas? The AP article does not link it. It quotes the IDF claiming Hamas said it.
Israel should release that proof then. Unless they do not have it.
AMD for sure. Especially Zen5 is amazing.
