[quote=Muslima]You might think that those tweets are insignificant but they are not. How many times do you see someone get fired because of a tweet or a show getting dropped by a network because of it? We live in a time where social media is powerful. A few weeks ago , Rihanna and Dwight Howard tweeted #freePalestine and were bullied into deleting the tweets. We're having an entire civilian population being bombed, and yet, an athlete tweeting?#?freepalestine? is smacked down with an immediacy that speaks to how desperate Israel and their backers are to keep them insulated from even a whiff of criticism. I am not mad at Dwight Howard or Rihanna for deleting those tweets. I wanted to thank them. I wanted to thank them for showing with utter clarity what few will say openly: that acknowledging the humanity of the Palestinian people comes with a price.[/quote]
