In a video on Oct. 13, Instagram influencer and photojournalist Motaz Azaiza shared footage of the rubble of an apartment, the site of an Israeli bombardment that killed 15 of his family members.

He turns the camera on himself first, visibly upset, and then shows the scene—the ruin of the building, a bloodstain, a neighbor carrying a child’s body draped with a shroud.

In response, Meta restricted access to his account.

First of all I stand with Palestine here but I acknowledge the hardships that the Jewish people have faced.

That said, this conspiracy theories ,groups and prejudices that target Jewish people are going to have a field day with the likes of this. The whole control the media thing doesn't have to be some backroom dealings when you can just point to this type of thing as an example.

What is actually happening is Jewish people are far better represented in the higher strata of global business and they have huge lobbies around the world. You're just more likely to have people sympathetic to their plight in powerful positions.
