Hi-

I'm sorry my friend keeps harping on the issue.

Here's the deal: Facebook generally takes at LEAST 24-48 hours to take action against TOS violations, which MUST go through the proper channels. I did NOT report you via Facebook, nor did I write to Facebook about your account.

In retrospect, I believe someone else reported your account days prior to any of my tweeting about the issue and that it was a coincidence that you were banned upon my tweeting. I honestly do not think any of my tweets had anything to do with it. If they did, then I sincerely apologize as I was not looking to get you banned, or in trouble whatsoever.

My deletion of the tweets in question were not in any sort of effort to hide what I did. In fact, I've deleted a lot of tweets lately as my goal is to stay more focused on Twitter and not engage in public infighting (in which our enemies love to capitalize upon).

Yes, I was annoyed with you seeming to not care about the death threats I was receiving, however, I'd like to move forward and drop it and I'd like you to know that the last thing I'd want to do is to get any pro-Israel activists banned from Facebook or anywhere else.

It is my hope that you and I can move forward in peace. There are many other things happening right now in my own activist life which are of serious security, privacy, and safety concerns, and in fact, my own Facebook account was deactivated by "pro-Israel" activists who acted against me, actually- so I know EXACTLY how you must be feeling.

That's a whole other story, I'd be happy to discuss w/ you if you're interested.

If you'd like to get to a better place, perhaps we can talk via Skype if you'd like, or you can please write to me directly….

All the best, and again, I'm very sorry for all of this.

Sincerely,

David
