RFK Jr. Reportedly Deletes Post Defending Israel and Accusing Qatar
Kennedy rejected genocide allegations against Israel and accused Qatar of funding propaganda. The reason for the reported deletion remains unclear.
US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. reportedly deleted an October 7 post on X in which he rejected genocide allegations against Israel and accused Qatar of funding a Muslim Brotherhood propaganda campaign.
What the post said
In the screenshot, Kennedy called the genocide accusation “laughable on its face” and said it provided a “permission structure for antisemitism.” He compared the alleged campaign with the work of Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels.
He argued that totalitarian systems, including Islamism, use antisemitism to mobilize people, form coalitions and gain power. He also called many Westerners repeating the allegation “useful idiots,” saying they had been misled by a campaign hostile to Jews, Christians, Israel and the United States. These were Kennedy’s accusations.
The post concerned allegations about Israel’s conduct in Gaza. It ended by thanking someone named John for a fact check, his vision and his courage.
Why was it deleted?
The Jerusalem Post reported the deletion on October 8 and said no explanation had been provided by Kennedy or his department. The reviewed reporting does not establish his reason for removing it.
