FinkelsteinAno: 2000Idioma: In glêsEncadernação: N.A.Páginas: 160Coleção: N.A.Nº. da Coleção: N.A.Código de Controlo: 5C Descrição: It was not until the Arab-Israeli War of 1967, when Israel's evident strength brought it into line with US foreign policy, that memory of the Holocaust began to acquire the exceptional prominence it enjoys today. Leaders of America's Jewish community were delighted that Israel was now deemed a major strategic asset and, Finkelstein contends, exploited the Holocaust to enhance this newfound status. Their subsequent interpretations of the tragedy are often at variance with actual historical events and are employed to deflect any criticism of Israel and its supporters. Show more
