Wal-Mart Watch: I'm sure we're all relieved to know Wal-Mart has against the message of the Protocals of the Elders of Zion: The description, now withdrawn from the Wal-Mart Web site, said, "If ... The Protocols are genuine (which can never be proven conclusively), it might cause some of us to keep a wary eye on world affairs. We neither support nor deny its message. We simply make it available for those who wish a copy." In a statement e-mailed to Reuters, a Wal-Mart spokeswoman said, "Based on significant customer feedback regarding the book titled 'The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion,' we have made a business decision to remove this book ... from our site at www.walmart.com." Wal-Mart had no immediate response to questions on whether the company wrote the description of the book on the Web site or if it came from the publisher.
