“Facebook has removed Hezbollah-related pages in what can be seen as another attempt by Washington to muzzle criticism of US policies. A spokesman for the social networking website told Lebanon’s Daily Star that the company removed the official Facebook page for Hezbollah’s al-Manar television because it ‘incited violence’. Due to Hezbollah’s appearance on a list provided by the State Department that contains names of organizations that may be involved in the ‘promotion of violence’, they have been removed from the site, Wolen claimed.”
