I've never really understood the point of the facebook wars where rival groups jostle it out to see who can get more numbers. That seems to have been happening lately with two Facebook groups: South Africans supporting Israel and South Africans supporting Palestine.
I really hope that the South Africans supporting Israel group however doesn't sink to the rancid depths of the Palestine group. This "wall entry" was posted on January 6 - they have had more that enough time to remove it, but they haven't. Because they don't find it offensive. If you not against it, you're with it.
Apparently, everything goes unless the language is foul. Group administrator said:
(Thanks Gary)
The world should listen to this wise Israeli.

Hi Steve
I am not sure I agree with on this. Have a look at this essay about the effects of antisemitism on facebook. http://www.jcpa.org.il/JCPAHeb/Templates/ShowPage.asp?DBID=1&LNGID=1&TMID=111&FID=381&PID=0&IID=2054
Also have a look at www.jidf.org
