Publisher's Synopsis
This failure of collective vision has been responsible for inflicting incalculable and avoidable suffering on generations of both Jews and Arabs - as was vividly illustrated by the Hamas massacre of 7 October 2023 and the war it triggered. Drawing on multiple scholarly sources, Professor David Stone summarises the overwhelming evidence that eliminationist antisemitism is the 'elephant in the room' - the underlying cause and principal driver of the hundred-year long Arab-Jewish (now misleadingly reframed as Israeli-Palestinian) conflict - and is the main reason it remains unresolved. Until that political and genocidal bigotry is confronted, the conflict is likely to continue.
