His comments came after a spate of violence last week between Palestinians and Israeli occupation soldiers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cDo you know where there are no attacks? In Iceland and in Japan where coincidentally there are no Muslims,\u201d the prime minister\u2019s son wrote.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In another post he wrote that there were only two possible solutions for peace, either \u201call Jews leave (Israel) or all Muslims leave\u201d. \u201cI prefer the second option,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Facebook deleted Yair Netanyahu\u2019s posts, prompting him to take to Twitter to criticise the social networking giant, calling it a \u201cdictatorship of thought\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Critics of the prime minister have often attacked Yair as a grown man living in the premier\u2019s residence despite having no official role and benefitting from a bodyguard, a driver and other perks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">They say the parents of the 27-year-old are grooming him for future political power in an attempt to establish a ruling dynasty. Israel occupied the West Bank and Jerusalem during the 1967 war in a move never recognised internationally. Ensuing violence has prevailed over the decades as Palestinians fight against the illegal Israeli occupation.<\/p>\n<div id=\"fb-root\"><\/div>\r\n<script>(function(d, s, id) {\r\n  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\r\n  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;\r\n  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\r\n  js.src = \"\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_GB\/all.js#xfbml=1\";\r\n  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\r\n}(document, \"script\", \"facebook-jssdk\"));<\/script>\r\n <fb:comments href=\"https:\/\/english.thesunrisetoday.com\/index.php\/facebook-blocks-netanyahus-son-for-anti-muslim-posts\/\" font=\"arial\" num_posts=\"\" width=\"\" height=\"\" colorscheme=\"light\"  style=\"background:#FFFFFF;padding-top:0px;\r\npadding-right:0px;\r\npadding-bottom:0px;\r\npadding-left:0px;\r\nmargin-top:0px;\r\nmargin-right:0px;\r\nmargin-bottom:0px;\r\nmargin-left:0px;\r\n\"><\/fb:comments>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu\u2019s eldest, Yair, tweeted on Sunday that Facebook blocked his page for 24 hours over apparent anti-Muslim posts and called the leading social network a \u201cdictatorship\u201d.
