Israeli media has accused Elon Musk, the owner of the "X" platform, formerly known as Twitter, of promoting anti-Semitism after he agreed with a post stating that Jews "fuel hatred against whites."

Musk, who has faced strong criticism from the Anti-Defamation League and the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs due to his previous statements, responded on Wednesday to a user who posted a criticism of a video by the Anti-Defamation League Foundation against anti-Semitism.

The video features a father speaking to his son about the hate he has spread online, reprimanding him for his speech.

A user on "X" rejected the video and  wrote, "Jewish communities have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.

He added that he is not interested in Western Jewish populations realizing that minorities who support flooding their countries don't like them very much. “You want truth said in your face, there it is,” he noted.

Musk responded, with his 163 million followers, saying: "You’ve said the actual truth."

The Israeli newspaper "Ynet" reported on this matter, stating that the social networking platform "X" (formerly Twitter) has become a fertile ground for the spread of anti-Semitism since Musk took ownership.
