After US Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump’s controversial call to ban Muslims from entering the US, we see Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg saying that Muslims are always welcome on Facebook.
“I want to add my voice in support of Muslims in our community and around the world.
After the Paris attacks and hate this week, I can only imagine the fear Muslims feel that they will be persecuted for the actions of others. If you’re a Muslim in this community, as the leader of Facebook I want you to know that you are always welcome here and that we will fight to protect your rights and create a Peaceful and safe environment for you,” posted Mark Zuckerberg on his facebook page.
He also added that his parents taught him to speak up against attack on any community. “As a Jew, my parents taught me that we must stand up against attacks on all communities. Even if an attack isn’t against you today, in time attacks on freedom for anyone will hurt everyone,” he added.
Speaking about his child, hope and humanity, he further wrote, “Having a child has given us so much hope, but the hate of some can make it easy to succumb to cynicism. We must not lose hope. As long as we stand together and see the good in each other, we can build a better world for all people.”
