After Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s remarks on how she felt “comforted” about her Palestinian ancestors’ role during and after the Holocaust set off a firestorm (as expected), Dov Hikind put out a video to correct her distortions.
Without warning prior, or notice thereafter, Hikind woke up today to discover that Facebook had removed the video (see it on Twitter).
Antisemites like @rashidatlaib have a long track record of distorting Jewish history just as the Nazis did – but only Rashida lies, gets called out, and then blames her critics for her lies! I’m glad we all saw right through her, but she’s still in Congress! pic.twitter.com/68HosSyrxo

It’s outrageous to think that for a video that did nothing but directly quote Rashida Tlaib along with the famous video of Hitler Y”MS meeting with the Palestinian Mufti as they discussed their ‘shared problem of the Jews’, Facebook censored Hikind and shut down his right to free speech.
It comes as no surprise, as we’ve recently seen Facebook and other social media sights de-platform voices that don’t jive with their far-Left outlook and agenda. But this should be unacceptable, particularly as there was no mention of it. It simply disappeared. The interesting thing is that other accounts re-posted Hikind’s video and the video was not (yet) removed.
Below, see screenshots of a Whatsapp message showing that the post was live on Facebook with a live link, and preview of the video at the original link, which has now been removed.

Don’t worry, the democrats will say something negative about her before election day to show they are still pro-Israel
Ari,
When donkeys fly
At the rate the Democrats are going I can see them being on the level of the nazis (yes I said it) in 10 years
where’s the gr8 ‘shomer yisrael’ (chuck) during all of this?
@ari-free I doubt it. They’ll just speak out of both ends of their mouths
Remember that these are the companies that endorse “net neutrality” while being the only offenders of the censure-ship they claim is rampant elsewhere.
Correction and as per the video: Arab leaders from Palestine , not Palestinian Mufti. Mr Hikind , good for you and keep up the good work!!
Haj Al Hussein, the former grand mufti of Jerusalem alerted Nazis during WWII to 4,000 Jewish children in Nazi occupied Europe that were to escape to what was called Palestine—the Nazis murdered all the Jewish children—the mufti is an accessory to murder but escaped any just punishment—in this world.
Any person, politician, organization that praises, speaks highly of the mufti is and will be an antisemitic even if they happen to be in the US Congress. !!!!

PS: All Jews do MTT, MD and MC !!!
All of you leftist commentators why don’t you comment ???
“It comes as no surprise, as we’ve recently seen Facebook and other social media sights de-platform voices that don’t jive with their far-Left outlook and agenda. ”
Really? Does YWN disagree with Facebook banning dangerous bigots like Farakhan and Alex Jones? Dangerous voices do not deserve a platform and Facebook she be lauded for banning people like Farakhan and Jones instead of being criticized falsely as banning those that disagree with their far left agenda. The Poway and Pittsburgh murders used social media as a platform and it should be quite obvious that voices of hate should be banned from these platforms.
Furthermore while I dont agree with the video being taken down Hikind did not just make a “video that did nothing but directly quote Rashida Tlaib along with the famous video of Hitler Y”MS meeting with the Palestinian Mufti” as your article describes. He accused Rashida of being an antisemite, he accused her anscestors of supporting Hitler and the Mufti and accused her ancestors of being antisemites all of which he has absolutely no idea about.
