Holocaust Inversion: The Portraying of Israel and Jews as Nazis
Manfred Gerstenfeld (2007). Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs (JCPA).
The portrayal of Israel, Israelis and Jews as morally equivalent to the Nazis is explored by the author. In some instances this phenomenon is identified as a tool used to downplay the extreme nature of the Holocaust, and elsewhere as a contemporary equivalent of the traditional antisemitic demonisation of Jews. The appearance of Holocaust inversion in far-left discourse on Jews and Israel, in Arab and Islamic media, and even within mainstream Western society are all examined.
