Is it time for regrets for Elon Musk? The owner of the social network X, formerly Twitter, was in Israel with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday, November 27th. A few days after the White House accused him of “spreading anti-Semitic hatred,” he visited the scene of the October 7 massacre.

Wearing a bulletproof vest under his suit jacket, Elon Musk entered the charred houses of Kfar Aza, one of the kibbutz hardest hit by Hamas attacks. Accompanied by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the American billionaire takes out his cell phone and films the destroyed houses. Ammunition hits, blackened facades: In the images published by the Israeli government, we see the managing director listening to the story of the massacre with a serious expression.

“We must put an end to the propaganda that trains people to be murderers,” says Elon Musk for a change, ten days after he was accused by the White House of “spreading anti-Semitic hatred” for reprising his portrayal of a conspiratorial message from an Internet user . As a supporter of deregulation of social networks in the name of freedom of expression, Elon Musk also needs to meet the Israeli president to talk about the fight against anti-Semitism online.
