BEIRUT — Anne Frank's diary has been censored out of a school textbook in Lebanon following a campaign by the militant group Hezbollah claiming the classic work promotes Zionism.

The row erupted after Hezbollah learned excerpts of "The Diary of Anne Frank" were included in the textbook used by a private English-language school in western Beirut.

Hezbollah's Al-Manar television channel ran a report slamming the book for focusing on the persecution of Jews.

"What is even more dangerous is the dramatic, theatrical way in which the diary is emotionally recounted," said the report aired last week and also published on the station's website.

It questioned how long Lebanon would "remain an open arena for the Zionist invasion of education."

I would have to go for the ones who deny evolution AND/OR approve creationism. Though, to avoid lawsuits, I'll have my people talk to your people on that one

Creationism

Radical Islam hates a book by a Jew? I'm shocked.

Israel stopped their latest shipment of destructive weapons from Iran..I think the group is all about destruction of anything Israel.

I feel so lame saying the obvious.

No comparison. Hezbollah has lots of blood on its hands. Christian fundamentalists don't even come close.
