Imagine you wake up one morning and find out you are the target of a violent social media mob.
This mob is threatening your life and accusing you of murder…. ALL OVER SOCIAL MEDIA.
It happened, and it happened to an American/Israeli young woman: Rebecca Rum.
In early June 2018, 24-year-old Rebecca woke up to find herself the target of a viral BDS shaming campaign. Her phone and social media accounts were bombarded with hate messages in multiple languages accusing her of murder and calling her a trained Nazi. Over 2 million engagements.
In 2012, 18-year-old Rebecca made a brave decision to leave the comfort of her home in the US and move to Israel. She joined the IDF Education and Youth Corps and Intelligence Corps, serving three years of active duty. Two years into her service, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit asked Rebecca to participate in a social media explanatory campaign; she gladly accepted. The photo posted on the IDF's official Facebook page shows her smiling in full uniform and holding an M-16.
That photograph, 4 years later, became the target of BDS Activist Suhair Nafal’s hate, shame, false accusations, and death threats. She accused Rebecca of joining the IDF to participate in the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people. She then juxtaposed Rebecca's picture with Razan Al-Najjar, a Palestinian nurse shot during the riots at the Gaza border with Israel, insinuating Rebecca was a "sniper" who killed Al Najjar. It did not take long before the Freedom for Gaza Facebook page altered the post and shared it with more than 100K followers. The new post explicitly accused Rebecca of being a "trained killer" who "executed a 21-year-old Palestinian nurse in Gaza." The post was shared nearly 15,000 times! ALL LIES!
Rebecca's nightmare is another painful example of the anti-Israel BDS mobs' violent and destructive nature. It spares no one from its campaign to delegitimize Israel. This time they targeted Rebecca with lies, antisemitism, and hate. Next time someone else's daughter or son will wake up to the same nightmare.
Fighting the BDS movement is more than defending Israel. We champion the truth against the conspiracies and lies spewed by BDS to destroy Israel and all Jews worldwide.
Shurat HaDin is representing Rebecca against Suhair Nafal in court and fighting for justice on her behalf.
Shurat HaDin is fighting against hate and lies.
