Social Media Giants Ban Trump, but the Real Censorship is of Palestinians. In the wake of the Capitol Hill insurrection, Facebook and Twitter finally took a principled stand against President Donald Trump by suspending his accounts.
While Trump lashed out at the tech giants, media analysts condoned the move—noting stronger moderation of his and other inflammatory posts are long overdue. Facebook, Twitter, and other social media behemoths have faced criticism over the years for allowing misinformation and dangerous incitement to run rampant on their platforms.

The largest pro-Israel organization in the United States is not composed of Jews, but of Christian evangelicals, with a total membership of 7 million, more than 2 million more members than the entirety of the American Jewish community.
Members of this organization, Christians United for Israel (CUFI), met in Washington on Monday, attracting thousands of attendees and featuring speeches from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Secretary of State and former CIA Director Mike Pompeo, Vice President Mike Pence, and National Security Advisor John Bolton.

Top Ten Myths about the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. How Special is the U.S.-Israel Relationship? In his famed "Iron Curtain" speech delivered at Fulton, Missouri in March 1946, Winston Churchill popularized the term "special relationship" to describe American-British ties that had developed during World War II.
Over time, others then applied the notion of a special relationship to U.S. connections with a host of other foreign states, including Canada, Panama, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, Ireland, Germany, Liberia, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, the Philippines, China, and Japan.

Editor's Note: Kudos to Giraldi for stating what everybody knows but nobody is willing to say in print, and to Ron Unz the publisher of the Unz Review.
Unz is Jewish, so perhaps that is why he is able to publish something like this. Most Gentile publishers outside the Alt-Right are too scared to, and Jewish publishers simply won't. We need more of this fair, balanced discussion. We ran an important piece by Giraldi yesterday where he details his personal experience of being censored on the internet. His reputation as a career CIA officer and publicist is impeccable. The Reasons for Netanyahu’s Panic – Consortiumnews.

Friedman, who has no diplomatic experience, is aligned not with American Jewish positions, but with Israel’s illegal settler movement and he is hostile to the two-state solution. He refers to the West Bank as Judea and Sumeria, a biblical name used by settlers and Israel’s extreme right. From insulting liberal American Jews to supporting illegal settlers, Friedman’s positions are out of step with trends among American Jews.
