Israel fears Pinocchio & Harry Potter in Arabic

How timorous is Israel before the printed word in Arabic. Does it shudder and have cold sweats? The Zionist state, a paragon of military machismo, trembles like a maiden going to her marriage bed that it's banned Pinocchio and the ever popular Harry Potter in Arabic in Israel and occupied Palestine. Why? Suddenly an old law on the books is dusted off. The books are printed in Lebanon an enemy state according this hoary piece of law that the British occupier of Palestine enacted. Really. Try as it might, 18Brumaire is convinced that already right under the Israeli censor's nose Samisdat copies of these works are always passing from hand to hand. What is Israel afriad of? Of itself!
