A Sydney library has removed a book critical of Israel called How to Sell a Genocide, following a complaint reportedly from a survivor of the Bondi beach terror attack.
How to Sell a Genocide critiques what it claims is the US media’s “complicity in the destruction of Gaza”.
The decision to remove the book was criticised by its author, Adam Johnson, who said calling Israel’s actions in Gaza a genocide was not “a fringe or radical position”.
“They seem to be objecting largely based on the title using the word ‘genocide’,” Johnson said.
More accurate title: Waverley library bans book critical of Israeli war crimes after pressure from Zionist lobby group.
Hopefully the Streisand effect has a bigger impact here than their (attempted) ban. The ban itself may infact be illegal, as mentioned later in the article
