Facebook yields to remove Hezbollah page under CIA pressure

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’.

“Under our Statement of Rights and Responsibilities we do not allow content that incites violence,” Frederic Wolens said.
