WAS CENSORSHIP ACTION IN LEBANON DUE TO HEZBOLLAH ORDER ?



If you are considering lowering Country Risk on Lebanon this year, due to the fact that no significant terrorist financing cases have surfaced, remember that Hezbollah's stranglehold upon the country has increased exponentially, and no Lebanese banks have sufficient governmental backing to refuse to move funds for that specially designated global terrorist organization, if ordered to do so, notwithstanding all the public statements by Lebanese regulators, and bankers' associations.

As additional proof, I offer this week's news item from Beirut; government agencies have banned the new American action film, Wonder Woman,  because the star is an Israeli.
