Democracy
Well, I didn't know this:
American companies are banned from publishing books by authors in Iran, Cuba and Sudan.
This came up because Shirin Ebadi won the nobel prize for her work on human rights in Iran - yet the book she has written to highlight her actions and fight cannot be published in a country that claims to be the most free and democratic in the world.
It seems as if claims are being weighed against actual actions.
