>A newly released best-selling novel for teens, Rever la Palestine (Dream of
>Palestine), sympathetically portrays a young Palestinian who becomes a
>suicide bomber. The fifteen-year-old Egyptian author, Randa Ghazi, who
>lives
>with her family in Italy, writes about Palestinian teenagers who fight
>'bloodthirsty Jews, who assassinate children and old people, profane
>mosques, and rape Arab women.'
>
>Dream of Palestine is being touted as 'surprisingly mature' and 'a great
>text of suffering and hope.' One of the novel's heroes calls for Jihad
>against the Jews who are 'a doomed people' and to 'kill all Israelis.' The
>main character is encouraged 'to kill hundreds in his suicide bombing' and
>later does blow himself up along with five Israelis.
>
>Released to coincide with the Christmas season, and inexpensively priced,
>Dream of Palestine has quickly sold out in major bookstores in Paris. It
>has
>been released by Flammarion, the third largest publishing house in France,
>a
>subsidiary of the Italian media giant, Rizzoli Corriere della Sera, which
>includes among its holdings one of the largest Italian daily newspapers and
>Rizzoli bookstores in the United States.
>
>The Wiesenthal Center is urging Amazon France and other French online
>websites to stop selling the book which is full of libelous accusations and
>which clearly incites racist violence and validates terrorism. The themes
>in
>this book could serve as the basis for litigation.
>
>We must act now to raise our voices in protest of this horrific book. The
>Jewish community of France has launched a protest, but more, much more
>needs
>to be done...
>
>PLEASE VISIT THE SIMON WIESENTHAL CENTER WEB-SITE WHICH ALLOWS YOU WITH ONE
>"CLICK" TO JOIN IN THE PROTEST TO THE PUBLISHERS IN FRANCE AND THE PARENT
>COMPANY IN ITALY.
