Syria will launch a campaign demanding a boycott of Facebook because the social networking site permits Israelis living on the Golan Heights to list "Israel" as their country of residence, according to a report in Tuesday's Arab language newspaper Al Quds al Arabi.

Ha, interesting one this. I followed it from a while back when the Facebook group was set up to get Facebook to allow members living in the Golans to set their location as Israel.

They organised themselves, they asked nicely, and they got what they wanted.

The Ba'athists in Syria on the other hand throw their toys out of the pram and call for a boycott.

Kind of symbolic isn't it?
