I wonder which other world leaders and government entities will be suspended from Facebook, with the same reasoning. For example, maybe Israel's leadership should be banned for their frequent propaganda there on why it's actually really great to kill Palestinian civilians because they're all secretly Hamas operatives, somehow. Though, I expect Facebook singled Trump out as a special case. As awful as he was, there are world leaders out there saying and doing far worse. Perhaps it only counts if it's the USA?

    So one unverified source now is attacking another verified source? Where are Ali’s sources on the deaths? Let me guess, it’s Hamas lol

I'm not on Facebook so I haven't seen what Netanyahu or other official Israeli government accounts post, but if what you posted is a fair summary of their statements, I think the key difference would be that Israel's leadership is (again, in your paraphrasing) justifying their own actions as legal, not calling on others to take illegal actions. Or are official Israeli Facebook accounts actually calling on their citizens to kill Palestinian civilians? I would actually be curious to see other example of a country's leadership explicitly advocating on Facebook for citizens to take extra-legal actions. Perhaps Duterte's calls for killing drug dealers? But I'm not sure if that was actually on Facebook...

That’s a despicable comparison.
