Overview #

This booklet exposes the disturbing influence of Nazi ideology on antisemitism in the modern Middle East. It draws clear parallels between Nazi propaganda and current antisemitic rhetoric, imagery, and conspiracy theories in the region. A chilling yet essential resource to understand how hate mutates and persists across generations.
