Beginning in the 1920s, Hajj Amin al-Husseini was the political and spiritual leader of the Palestinian Arabs. A vicious anti-Semite, he incited numerous riots against Jewish settlers. During World War II al-Husseini allied himself and his people with Hitler; he lived in Germany, met with Hitler, encouraged “the Final Solution,” and became close friends with Himmler and other Nazi leaders. After the war al-Husseini escaped charges of war crimes and fled to Egypt. His standing only rose, and he was instrumental in fomenting Nazi-style anti-Semitic propaganda throughout the Islamic world. Al-Husseini also became the mentor to a new generation of radical Islamic leaders. Foremost among them was Yasser Arafat.
Al-Husseini’s life and work illuminates the dark relation between the Nazis and the Islamic radicals. Written with verve and extraordinary access to primary sources in several languages, this is a harrowing account of evil’s past and present.
Rabbi David Dalin is the Taube Research Fellow in American History at the Hoover Institute at Stanford.
John Rothmann serves on the faculty of the Fromm Institute at the University of San Francisco. He is an author, teacher, archivist, political consultant, and talk show host on KGO 810-AM.
