The X, aka Twitter, endeavor of Elon Musk has not proven beneficial for the billionaire. Elon completed the deal in October 2022, and after one year, it has not come to fruition financially. The company has been facing plummeting revenue as advertisers have been backing out due to a rise in hateful content. However, after a recent anti-Semitism controversy, Musk has been facing vitriol.
Elon Musk commented on a post that peddled conspiracy theories about Jews in the US. It came amidst the Israel-Hamas war, which has caused a greater loss of human lives. After meeting Benjamin Netanyahu in California, Musk will be meeting the Prime Minister and Israeli President, Isaac Herzog, in Israel, as Hamas and Israel have called for a four-day truce.

Elon Musk Will Meet Israeli Officials After Sparking Anti-Semitic Controversy
Elon Musk and his social media endeavor, X, aka Twitter, had a tough time last week. X saw a huge exodus of advertisers opting out of advertising on the platform. It all happened after Media Matters for America released a report showing that X is placing advertisements for various giant corporations next to pro-Hitler and pro-Nazi content.
Elon Musk also came under fire for perpetuating the “Great Replacement” theory after a user posted about it, with Elon confirming it to be true. This, combined with the perpetuation of anti-Semitism and hatred of X, has led to financial repercussions for Elon Musk.
Now, Channel 12 TV has confirmed that Elon Musk will meet Benjamin Netanyahu and Isaac Herzog on November 27, 2023. The meeting coincides with the four-day truce that Hamas and Israel agreed to after the intervention from Qatar.
Netanyahu met with Elon in September 2023 and urged him to maintain a balance between freedom of expression and increasing hate for X. Musk responded that he is against anti-Semitism and anything that promotes hate.
