PA monitors Facebook

The US-backed Palestinian Authority security forces belonging to
Mahmoud Abbas and Salam Fayyad have been monitoring the activities of
Palestinians on Facebook to make sure that no one criticizes them. The
Palestinian Authority wants Palestinians to write only nice things
about their leaders. Criticism should be directed only against Israel.
Those who fail to toe the line will find themselves either behind bars
or without work. The Palestinian leadership's clampdown on Facebook
users is seen as a pre-emptive measure to prevent the "Arab Spring"
from infiltrating into the West Bank.
