The modern blood libel “Al-Aksa is in danger,” referring to the Al-Aksa Mosque on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, originated in the days of Grand Mufti Haj Amin al-Husseini, ally of Hitler, and is propagated today by Sheikh Raed Salah, Hamas, Hizbullah, Iran, and many others in the Muslim world. Now that it has come to be regarded as unalloyed truth by millions in the Muslim world, it is urgent to address this lie.
Nadav Shragai, a journalist and commentator at the Israeli newspaper Ha’aretz for more than 25 years (1983-2009), has devoted this fascinating book to refuting the lie, drawing its portrait, and shedding light on its origins, purposes, and manifestations.
