Muslim Governments Boycott Israeli Books

One by one, from Morocco to Saudi Arabia to Iran, Muslim governments have signed up for the boycott of the international book fair opening Friday in the French capital. The reason? It showcases Israeli literature this year -- which, by mere coincidence organizers say, happens to be the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Jewish state.  

There was no mention of whether these governments have also boycotted the Bible, also a Jewish book.
