An anti Zionist book authored by an outspoken anti-Semite has been banned by the Argentine government on grounds that it threatened security and public order. The ban forbids the distribution, sale or circulation of “From the Zionist Yoke to the Possible Argentina” by Dr. Walter Beveraggi Allende, a lawyer and one of the most notorious Jew-baiters in Argentina.
It purports to be an economic treatise describing the country’s liberation from dependence. According to the government decree, the book, published by Editorial Confederation Nacionalista, is intentionally anti-social and tends to provoke or instigate illegal or criminal acts against security and public order.
