Israeli embassy in Singapore told to take down Facebook post about Palestine: Shanmugam - CNA
The Israeli embassy in Singapore has been told by the government to take down a "completely unacceptable" Facebook post comparing Israel and Palestine, said Law and Home Affairs Minister K Shanmugam on Monday (Mar 25).
On Sunday (Mar 24), the official Facebook account of the Israeli embassy published a post containing claims comparing mentions of Israel and Palestine in the Quran. The post said: "Israel is mentioned 43 times in the Quran. On the other hand, Palestine is not mentioned even once."
