I stumbled over this by accident while checking something out on amazon.com. This page even references other books along the same lines. One more testament to the disgustingness, cruelty, ignorance, and chronic lying of antisemites.

They do persist and kind of "hide" in the cracks of the internet. There are a few forms, far left and far, weird right.

Some of those cross over to the left. The left is sneakier about it but getting more brazen. The whole anti-Israel thing has passed over into pure anti-Semitism in many cases. I think overall, the mainstream American right is good at keeping these nuts marginalized but yes, they are everywhere.

Yes, cowards and it strikes me as nearly a form of mental illness, a symptom or obsession that is symptomatic of something wrong.

Many people want to have a cat to kick, for whatever reason, and many of these have chosen Israel as the cat. Oppressive rulers have used this for well more than two millennia to redirect their subjects' anger and frustration at them toward the Jews, who are much safer to target. It's a very ancient evil -- in the book of Esther in the Old Testament, Haman tries to get the king, Esther's husband, to kill all the Jews. Esther uses her supreme intelligence, and her powers of persuasion to keep her husband from carrying out Haman's wishes. So it goes back quite a way.

BTW, I sent an email to amazon.com about this particular book, and they replied with an apology and a promis to take the damned thing down. So there is hope. :-)
