Facebook is allowing terrorists to connect and has a “moral obligation” to block them, says Judge Shurat Hadin of the US District Court. The judge spoke as part of a civil lawsuit hearing filed by Israel Law Centre Nicholas Garaufis on behalf of 20,000 Israelis. The lawsuit alleges Facebook facilitated incitement and is culpable for damages in the wrongful deaths of Americans killed in Israel by terrorists. Facebook has removed 95% of 158 terrorism-related pages and posts, though lawyers for Nicholas Garaufis said that this was not enough.
