Disturbingly, the former General Director of the Israeli Ministry of Justice – Emi Palmor – has recently been appointed to Facebook’s Oversight Board. Under Palmor, the Ministry of Justice established the Israeli Cyber Unit, which targeted Palestinian speech and coerced websites into taking down tens of thousands of pieces of content by Palestinians. Palmor’s resume should disqualify her from a role at Facebook supposedly designed to protect free speech. We’re working with international partners, including Jewish Voice for Peace and the BDS National Committee, in launching a campaign to demand Facebook stops censoring Palestinian voices and gets rid of Emi Palmor.
