MIDDLE EAST NEWS
Last week, the U.S. State Department served as a ³cultural
partner² with something called the ³Abu Dhabi International Book
Fair.² The event ran from April 30 through May 5.
It was well known to the State Department that the Book Fair would
have many anti-Semitic books on display in both English and Arabic,
but it proceeded to sponsor the event anyway.
Among titles being promoted and sold at the event were The
International Jew, Mein Kampf, and The Protocols of the
Learned Elders of Zion. All three of these books are frequently
cited as having fueled anti-Semitism in 20th Century Europe and paved the way for The
Holocaust.
As it happens, currently all of these viciously anti-Semitic books are
wildly popular in the Middle East. In fact, The Protocols is
now reported to be the second most widely published book in the Arab
world. It is a notorious fabrication originating in Russia in the
early 1900s. The book promotes anti-Semitic conspiracy theories
featuring Jews planning global domination.
It is profoundly troubling that the diplomatic arm of the U.S.
government would lend an air of legitimacy to an event at which such
books are being promoted. But it is a sign of the times in which
we¹re living.
That¹s why your ongoing support is so important and so
appreciated. A key part of our mission here at Jewish Voice is
combating anti-Semitic misinformation while nalysis of th encouraging
support for Israel and the Jewish People.
As a thank you for your generous contribution, we will send you
an enlightening study regarding the facts surrounding global
anti-Semitism that every believer needs to be aware of.
To the Jew first and also to the Nations,
