The United States is once again participating in an international book fair – this time in the United Arab Emirates — rife with antisemitic titles, pro-Israel blogger Elder of Ziyon reported on Monday.
As is illustrated in the report, the US Embassy in the UAE capital posted an invitation to its display at the 26th Abu Dhabi International Book Fair on Facebook.
“Come see the great books and creativity Spark! Lab at the US Embassy booth at the Abu Dhabi International Book Fair. We are in Hall 7, section C – directly under the banner,” is how the post is worded, with an added smiley emoticon.
According to Elder of Ziyon, books at the fair – held, as reported by the government-owned UAE English-language newspaper The National – “under the patronage of Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, and inaugurated on Wednesday by Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed, Minister of Foreign Affairs” – include the following categories and titles:
Jewish Danger – The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, That Al Salasil Company
Jewish Influence in the Media, by Fouad al-Rifai, Dar Al Yakeen publishers
Jews and contempt of religion, by Hanafi Mahalawy, Alam Al Kotob publishers

This is not the first time that the US has participated in book fairs held in the Arab world that promote antisemitism.
