But why, in such already sombre surroundings, does one of them wear thick dark glasses? And what, above all, has caused an unearthly shadow to fall across these two interwoven destinies?

The Arabs and the...

In The Arabs and the Holocaust, Gilbert Achcar dismantles the monolithic stereotypes often applied to the Arab world's perception of the Shoah. Drawing on deep historical research, the book examines the distinct political and intellectual currents in the Middle East—ranging from liberal to Islamist—and analyzes how these groups historically responded to Nazism, Zionism, and the establishment of Israel. Achcar offers a nuanced, perceptive study of the competing narratives that continue to shape the Israeli-Palestinian conflict today.
