I'm surprised it even got as far as it did with the "happy merchant" meme on the front cover.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 83%. (I'm a bot)

> A book featuring antisemitic tropes was removed from display by security forces at Egypt's state-run Cairo International Book Fair, its author claimed on Sunday, a week after Israel expressed concern about such texts being available at the event.

> The Cairo event is the Arab world's oldest and largest book fair.

The book fair has Holocaust denial, Mein Kampf, and the Protocols of the Elders of Zion in it. I'm surprised it was removed at all.

The author should have claimed it was about anti Zionism. Then everyone would give him a free pass!

Your surprised it got that far in Egypt? Really?

They only hide behind that in western forums (like here on Reddit or Twitter) to make their antisemitism more palatable to western progressives. They don’t need to hide it in mainstream Arab society.
