The Jewish Internet Defense Force (JIDF) is an online organization which seeks to remove hateful anti-Semitic and anti-Israel content which "clearly promotes violence and Islamic terrorism" from the web. The group has paid particular attention to this type of content on Facebook, YouTube, Google Earth, and Misplaced Pages. The organization started as the Facebook group "FACEBOOK: Why Do You Aid And Abet Terrorist Organizations?", which succeeded in removing over 100 Facebook groups with incendiary content by mobilizing its members to report the groups to Facebook for violating its terms of use. When, according to the JIDF, Facebook refused to remove additional such groups "despite thousands of user complaints over the course of eighteen months", the JIDF " matters in own hands" by seizing control over the Facebook group "Israel is not a country! Delist it from Facebook as a country", described by the JIDF as "one of the most vile, antisemitic, pro-terrorist sites on the internet. Moreover, it was the most active hate group of all----promoting hatred, violence, murder, and genocide...." In a response to an earlier version of this Misplaced Pages article, the JIDF emphasized that its focus "is NOT legitimate anti-Israel content, but rather, clearly antisemitic content and content which clearly promotes violence and Islamic terrorism"
