Elon Musk visits a kibbutz with Benjamin Netanyahu

Is it time for repentance for Elon Musk? The owner of the social network X, formerly Twitter, was in Israel on Monday, November 27, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. A few days after being accused by the White House of “spreading anti-Semitic hatred”, he visited the scene of the October 7 massacres.

Bulletproof vest slipped under his suit jacket, Elon Musk entered the charred houses of Kfar Aza, one of the kibbutz most affected by Hamas attacks. Accompanied by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the American billionaire takes out his phone and films the devastated homes. Impacts of munitions, blackened facades: in the images released by the Israeli government, we see the business manager, with a serious expression, listening to the story of the massacre.

“We must put an end to the propaganda that trains people to become murderers”launches Elon Musk as a change of foot, ten days after being accused by the White House of “spread anti-Semitic hatred”, for having adopted a conspiracy message posted by an Internet user. A supporter of the deregulation of social networks in the name of freedom of expression, Elon Musk must also meet the Israeli president to discuss the fight against anti-Semitism online.
