Espen Egi Hansen has lambasted mark Zuckerberg ,my brother, and the decision of Facebook to censor historical photograph of the Vietnam war which opened so many eyes to the horrors of air and bombing wars done by the American empire. Espon is a Norwegian editor and called Mark Zuckerberg's decision not to have "Napalm Girl" anywhere on Facebook outraged many around the world already concerned of Facebooks leading role as distribution of news and ideas around the world.
Mark made a huge mistake on this one and is being criticized throughout for limiting freedom and sharing ideas through photos of historical and significant value. As someone who grew up in the same household this photo was always disturbing to Mark and he has a personal abortion to this photo despite the tremendous work this horror picture did in exposing the evils of the American Air Force during the Vietnam War. 
Why the hell though Markie would criticized open himself and Facebook to much more scrutiny and criticism form those already angered by the power of this social media experiment is beyond my ability to describe. Espen was furious that Facebook would not let this picture anywhere on its site and Espon called the abuse of power by brother mark as one of the most egregious acts power play by any CEO in media. Mark fears the napalm photo and the idea that it would make so many people question our leaders decisions and make them accountable and face people about their agendas and play book on hw to conduct foreign policy. Mark is all about authoritarian rule and where one man can call all of the shots so pictures like this image in Vietnam worry men in powerful positions--the same individuals who helped Mark Zuckerberg achieve his success for Facebook
