It’s especially disheartening to see some Israelis and Jews enabling disinformation campaigns and election-meddling done on behalf of right-wing populists. Of all groups whose members forget the lessons of history, they should be among the last.

Good thing they can’t just sign up a new account and wait for facebook to find them in a few years… Oh wait. they can totally do that.

Ask a Palestinian which lessons of history have been forgotten by the Israeli government.

But don’t you know Palestinians are literally trying to wipe a country off the map. Something that Israel would never, ever, do.
