Product Description
This is the first work that refutes, in a detailed and specific fashion, the claims made in the classic anti-Semitic forgery, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. While other attempts have been made to explore the history or context of The Protocols, this work sets out the themes and claims of each of the 24 protocols, and then debunks them, protocol by protocol. Since the “protocols” claim to be exposing a hidden conspiracy rooted in Jewish tradition, the refutation is accomplished by showing how authentic Jewish texts and authorities have actually addressed these issues. The positions cited are drawn from the range of Jewish history and traditions. There are also chapters that explore current use of The Protocols of Zion by modern extremists, as well as the new life given to them by the internet. In addition to the introduction, there is also a thematic index.
