FRANCE BANS ANTI-SEMITIC IRANIAN T.V.

France Bans Iran's Sahar TV For Airing Antisemitic Programs
Memri reports that France banned Iran’s Shahar TV Network for broadcasting anti-Semitic programming. Two shows specifically cited were ‘Al-Shatat’ and ‘Zahra’s Blue Eyes.’ The former portrays a blood libel, while the latter claims Israelis kidnap Palestinian children to harvest their organs. The ban goes into effect in March. Iran reacted to the ban with displeasure.
