Foreword
Throughout the history of mankind, the wars of genocide against the Jews have been the most ferocious and unrelenting known. For sheer savagery and cruelty, no people have experienced and endured so much as the semetic parents of Jesus.
Hitler almost succeeded in destroying a whole race of people, the people. And he did chase them out of Europe on a grand scale. Until the centers of Jewish population became New York-and Israel.
This book in about Israel and the people there during the 1948 war.
It is no matter that the Arabs are semetic people too. Their lust for cruelty is written in the unchanging sands of the desert. Theirs is a holy war against their Jewish cousins.
It is so easy to remember Hitler-and forget what happens in the tractless waste of the African desert. And yet, what is going on there, what is happening, is a sin against man and nature. In the civilized background of Europe, Hitler was a beast. His every act was amplified as an indictment of the animal nature of the German people.
But on the desert, such acts are forgotten as mere perversities. Only true cruelty leaves a lasting memory.
