Vienna's Saudi school accused of anti-Semitism

VIENNA - Vienna's school board is investigating the city's Saudi Arabian school for reportedly teaching anti-Semitism in a history class following a report by an Austrian news magazine.

According to the report, a history book used by the school contains anti-Jewish material. It quoted the book as allegedly describing Freemasons as "a Jewish, secret, subversive organization focused on guaranteeing control of the world by Jews."

School board official Matias Meissner said Monday the board is looking into the allegations. A woman answering the phone at the school refused to comment.
