Allison, Noah, and Times of Israel Ops & Blogs editor Miriam Herschlag discuss the emergent popular wisdom that Facebook bears some responsibility for the continuing epidemic of stabbings, by bringing persuasive, murderous messages to the mobile phones of Palestinian teens, and the demand of Minister of Public Security Gilad Erdan that the social network censure dangerous posts (including those of BDS supporters who would never consider violence).

This is a segment from The “Death by Facebook?” Edition.
