"A brilliant expose of the powerful but inconspicuous interest group that. for decades has persistently undermined U. S. foreign and national security interests."

Mitchell Bard's book, Death to the infidels is an in depth look at Jewish-Muslim relations, especially the last century. Well covered is the creation of Israel and the many wars which followed. Major differences in the Arab world versus other Muslim states are noted as well as the U.S.'s shifting positions on Israel and the Palestinians.

First, it must be noted that this is not a balanced account of the conflict, but written from the Israeli point of view. Bard writes in a scholarly tone and he uses end notes to cite his many sources. In my advanced reader’s copy, there was no index (and I could have used one many times to go back to previous chapters) but one will be included in the final version of the book.

In today's increasingly anti-semitic world where even the terrible comments of a representative in the U.S. House were not censured, it is important to know what has happened in the past so we can reconstruct a future that is fair to all participants: Muslim, Jew and Christian. This book goes a long way in understanding the Israeli point of view and allows the reader to grasp the fundamentals necessary understand today's world.

Until November of 1938 Jews of Germany had little reason to believe that their physical safety was at risk. All that changed on Kristallnacht. The power of this book derives from the vivid words of German children who saw their world suddenly destroyed by Nazi brutality and by the apathy of their neighbors and classmates. A “gripping oral history”.
