The Growing Hamas-Al Qaeda Connection

The Growing Hamas-Al Qaeda Connection

May 17, 2007 | Lt. Col. (ret.) Jonathan D. Halevi
Al-Qaeda generally thrives wherever central authority of governments is collapsing and therefore its current success in the war-torn Gaza Strip should not come as a surprise. Just after Israel’s unilateral disengagement from the Gaza Strip in August 2005, there were reports that al-Qaeda had exploited the new security vacuum that had been created and begun to dispatch its operatives to this territory.

Holocaust Inversion: The Portraying of Israel and Jews as Nazis

Holocaust Inversion: The Portraying of Israel and Jews as Nazis

April 1, 2007 | Dr. Manfred Gerstenfeld
The false accusation of Holocaust inversion—the portraying of Israel, Israelis, and Jews as Nazis—is a major distortion of history. This anti-Semitic concept claims that Israel behaves against the Palestinians as Germany did to the Jews in World War II. “The victims have become perpetrators,” is one major slogan of the inverters. By shifting the moral responsibility for genocide, Holocaust inversion also contains elements of Holocaust denial.
