Meta Aided Israel in Massive Censorship Campaign Targeting Pro-Palestine Content

2025-04-11

Internal Meta data obtained by Drop Site News reveals that the Israeli government directly orchestrated a sweeping crackdown on posts critical of Israel or supportive of Palestinians on Instagram and Facebook. Since October 7th, Meta has complied with 94% of takedown requests from Israel, overwhelmingly targeting users from Arab and Muslim-majority countries. This campaign, leveraging AI to perpetuate censorship, raises serious concerns about free speech and Meta's complicity. The involvement of Meta executives with ties to the Israeli government further fuels the controversy.

2025-04-05

On March 23, Israeli forces massacred 15 Palestinian paramedics in Rafah, southern Gaza, including eight Red Crescent and five Civil Defense workers. The sole survivor, Munther Abed, recounted being directly shot at, their vehicles destroyed, and subsequently tortured. The UN described the attack as part of a “concerted policy to destroy Gaza’s healthcare system,” and the Red Cross/Red Crescent called it the deadliest single attack on their workers since 2017. This incident highlights the ongoing attacks on medical personnel in the Gaza war and the gross violation of international humanitarian law.

DOGE's Intrusion into FEMA: A Power Grab in Plain Sight

2025-02-13

Sources inside FEMA reveal that DOGE, an organization whose motives remain unclear, has gained access to FEMA's core financial management system, including the FEMA Grant Outcomes (FEMA GO) and the Integrated Financial Management and Information System (IFMIS). This access grants DOGE control over disaster grant disbursements and access to sensitive personal information of disaster relief and migrant aid applicants, including A-numbers. While claiming to be auditing FEMA, DOGE employees, described as primarily computer scientists, lack financial management expertise, leading to misunderstandings and potential misuse of data. The firings of at least four FEMA employees under questionable circumstances further escalate concerns. This situation raises serious questions about data security, internal controls within government agencies, and potential political maneuvering.
