Britain – Battle against Nazis and Holocaust-deniers on Facebook

David Appletree

Activist David Appletree has established a group - Facebook: Stop Violating Your Own Terms By Supporting Hatred and Terror - to fight anti-Israel and anti-Jewish groups that are cropping up on Facebook, the social-networking website. Appletree’s group lists around 80 Facebook groups that praise Hitler and deny the Holocaust. More than 5,000 members are supporting Appletree’s campaign, which is attracting widespread media interest. Texas-based Appletree says he has actively been on Facebook’s case to remove antisemitic groups since he came across a group praising the murderer of the yeshivah students at Jerusalem’s Mercaz Harav.
