Description
With attacks by Muslims against Jews in Western Europe reaching all-time highs, Jews are now facing levels of genocidal anti-Semitism not seen since WWII. Muslims committing attacks on Jews seek to substitute their own claims of victimhood for the Jews plight, defining themselves as the new Jews. Their demands for recognition are accompanied by acts of public disobedience, violent street protests, and petty crime.
The Arab-Israeli struggle has been brought to Europe and extended to cover a hatred of Europe s Jews as well as those resident in Israel. Gregg Rickman, the United States first Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism, provides this first-person account and in-depth examination of the rise of anti-Semitism in the twenty-first century.
