Israelophobia: The Newest Version of the Oldest Hatred and What To Do About it

In the twentieth century, they were hated because of their race. Today, Jews are hated for something else entirely: their nation-state of Israel. Antisemitism has morphed into something both ancient and modern: Israelophobia.

How did this transformation occur? And why?

Award-winning journalist Jake Wallis Simons tackles these pressing questions, offering:

• Clarification of the line between criticism and hatred.
• Exploration of game-changing facts.
• Exposure of dangerous discourse.

Urgent, incisive, and deeply necessary, Israelophobia sheds light on why the Middle East's only democracy—one that uniquely respects the rights of women and sexual and religious minorities—attracts such disproportionate levels of slander.

Rather than defending Israel against all criticism, this book advocates for reasonable disagreement based on reality instead of bigotry.
