DescriptionIn 2019, a young man carried out a deadly shooting in a synagogue in San Diego to avenge a notorious blood libel case from 15th-century Europe. In 2018, Robert Bowers murdered 11 elderly worshippers in Pittsburgh, claiming inspiration from the Gospel of John. The musician Kanye West conducted a weeks-long media campaign seen by millions, accusing Jews of controlling presidents, corrupting Christian values, and enslaving Black entertainers. In Paris, a Jewish phone salesman who lived in public housing was brutally murdered by a gang whose ringleader ordered the abduction and extortion of a Jewish victim because "Jews are loaded with money." Where do these beliefs come from? Why are they still prevalent today? The 7 Deadly Myths traces antisemitism from its earliest origins to the present day and uncovers the dangerous conspiracy theories that lead people and nations to diabolical acts. A ground-breaking work that finally answers the questions of how antisemitism takes hold, how it is transmitted, and how it can be stopped. |
