Paris, 6 November
In a letter to H.H. Sheikh Dr. Sultan Bin Muhammad Al-Qasimi, Emir of Sharjah, UAE, the Simon Wiesenthal Centre Director for International Relations, Dr. Shimon Samuels stated: “This week’s opening of the Sharjah International Book Fair, has drawn our attention to displays of antisemitic books that should have no place at the Fair. Sadly, the current SIBF is abused, particularly by the recidivist Egyptian publisher Dar El-Kitab Alaraby (stand D5-D6). Examples include:
“Pawns in the Game..The Practical Implementaion of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion” – by William Guy Carr [notorious antisemitic conspiracy theorist] and translated by Magdi Kamel
“The Protocols of the Elders of Zion: The Masonic Plots to Dominate the World” – by Mansour Abdel Hakim [based on a Tsarist Secret Police forgery of the early 1900s]
“The Rothschilds – Merchants of Wars and Revolutions” – by Magdi Kamel
“Mein Kampf” – by Adolf Hitler (edited by Farid al-Falluji)
“The Talmud – Secrets…Facts – Exposing the Jewish Plots to Control the World” – by Dr. El-Hussainy El-Hussainy Madi
“Theodor Herzl…Satan of Zionism and Devil of the Modern Era” – by Essam Abdelfattah and Mohamed Sewify Abdallah”
