Leaked audio posted online shows the head of the Anti-Defamation League, Jonathan Greenblatt, discussing a planned major censorship campaign coming from pressure put on the government to police speech and perceived threats to the nation’s Jewish populations.
Last month another, different, donor call was leaked from the ADL, which a Jewish outlet described as part of the internal struggle within the organization, noting that it was a “special meeting to pacify internal critics signifies that the organization’s vocal opposition to the anti-Zionist left is controversial even within an organization that has long been committed to Israel advocacy.”
The ADL has embraced far-left politicians for many years and unfairly harassed the political right, and that decision has been hurting the organization due to the left’s splintering of support for Israel and Jewish policy since the October terror attacks by Hamas in Israel. The New York Times recently referred to this split in an op-ed headline as “The Great Rupture.”
In the leaked presentation, Greenblatt equates Anti-Zionism to Anti-Semitism, meaning that any criticism of Israel’s policies towards the Palestinians are enabling terror attacks. Most surprisingly, Greenblatt mentions the plan to bring in even more government censorship online. In his speech, Greenblatt mentions the CDA 230 immunity from liability that tech companies enjoy, limiting online companies from liability for content posted on their sites posted by others. Meaning that, currently Facebook can’t be sued for libel if someone posts libelous content on their platform.
