I dig how Facebook tells me that this link is “unsafe.” How kind of them to look out for me like that and keep me from reading material that is “unsafe.” I appreciate how they keep Facebook a safe space in accord with the teachings of the Orthodox rabbis at the Museum of Tolerance who celebrated the Supreme Court’s gay marriage ruling with the tweet, “Love wins! #loveislove.” How very Torah of them!
I have the Simon Wiesenthal Center to thank for increasing censorship on Facebook, Youtube and Twitter. If these Orthodox rabbis have their way, they will end free speech in the West and flood it with Muslims.

“The new rules are definitely an improvement,” said Rabbi Abraham Cooper of the Digital Terrorism and Hate Project at the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles. “But the question is: Will they be accompanied by a more proactive attitude toward making sure repeat offenders are identified and permanently removed?”
On the Simon Wiesenthal Center website Wiesenthal.com Dec. 15, 2015, Rabbi Abraham Cooper writes:

For two decades I’ve headed the Center’s Digital Terror and Hate project that:
2015 social media report card
• Helps politicians, law enforcement and intelligence understand how extremists leverage social media and other online technologies to threaten us all
• Shares findings of our annual Digital Terrorism and Hate reports with policy-makers from Washington DC, across Europe and NATO headquarters, to India, Singapore and Japan
• Holds regular meetings with Facebook, Google, YouTube, Twitter to pressure them to degrade the marketing campaigns of ISIS and al Qaeda and to remove anti-Semitic and racist postings
• Develops and releases free apps that help law enforcement track our research, empower community activists to report problematic web activity; help young people counter cyberbullying

Social networking is at the core of all terrorist and hate group activities. The Simon Wiesenthal Center has been on the forefront of combatting this growing tide for over a decade.
Please help us at this crucial and pivotal moment in the struggle against terrorism and hate.

You’ll notice the difference between John Nolte’s headline on Twitter, and the one used by by the Houston Chronicle:”Man charged with setting Houston mosque fire was a devout attendee”. [Man charged with setting Houston mosque fire was a devout attendee, By Carol Christian and Leah Binkowitz, December 30, 2015]This avoids the use of the word Muslim twice. The suspect, above, is a black American Muslim. He is also described by the Chronicle as a “Houston man”.
A Houston man has been arrested in connection with a suspected arson at a mosque on Christmas Day.
A spokeswoman for the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives confirmed that the man was arrested early Wednesday, sometime after midnight, and appeared in court 7 a.m. Wednesday.
According to a charging instrument released by the Harris County District Clerk, Moore told investigators at the scene that he has attended the mosque for five years, coming five times per day to pray seven days per week.
Moore told investigators he had been at the mosque earlier on Dec. 25 to pray, and had left at about 2 p.m. to go home. Moore told investigators he was the last person to leave the mosque and saw no smoke or other signs of fire when he left. He had returned to the scene after hearing about the fire from a friend.
Though the suspect said he was a regular at the mosque, MJ Khan, president of the Islamic Society of Greater Houston, which operates the mosque, said he was unfamiliar with Moore. “We are just looking into it ourselves,” he said Wednesday morning after learning of the arrest.
“We are really very surprised and saddened by this whole thing,” said Khan.
Using surveillance video from multiple businesses nearby, investigators were able to identify Moore, according to records. A search warrant of his home was conducted, in which investigators recovered a backpack and clothing that seemingly matched that which was seen in surveillance footage, as well as one half of a two-pack of charcoal lighter fluid bottles that seemed to match another lighter fluid bottle found inside the mosque.
In the document, police referred to him as a “bald-headed, dark-skinned male”, because that’s what the surveillance cameras showed. However, other news sources headline him as “Suspect Arrested” [NBC] and “Worshipper Arrested”[Houston Public Media] and “Man Charged.” (Everybody else.)
