The Meeting of Hatred: Roots Causes of Jew-hatred in the West and in the East - Differences, Similarities and Results
With Lt. Col. (res.) Dr. Mordechai Kedar
Jew-hatred is found in the Western/Christian/European culture and in the Eastern/Islamic/Arab culture. The arenas are different but Jew-hatred is almost similar. Why is there no Jew hatred in India, China, Japan and Korea while European and Islamic societies hate Jews as a regular practice?Dr. Mordechai Kedar received his Ph.D. from Bar-Ilan University. He served for 25 years in IDF military intelligence specializing in Syria, Arab political discourse, Arab mass media, Islamic groups, and Israeli Arabs. Expert on the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist groups.
