SAVING CIVILIZATION FROM ITSELF

This is the kind of article that makes you think. Martin Gilbert has written a book called "Churchill and the Jews". I found the preview of the book very interesting, and I would urge everyone to read the book. Arthur Herman previews the book in this post from the Wall Street Journal. Mr. Gilbert in his book points out that Winston Churchill, who was a student of history, "came to feel that Judaism was the bedrock of traditional Western moral and political principles." Mr. Gilbert quoted Chruchill as arguing that "For Europeans to turn against the Jew, was for them to strike at their own roots and reject an essential part of their civilization." As Mr. Herman says "Martin Gilbert's book reminds us that anti-Semitism is the dark turn of the modern mind against itself, and a form of cultural patricide."
