## Description

A scathing argument against those who exploit the Holocaust for personal and political gain—by a major figure at the center of the Israel-Palestine debate. “The most controversial book of the year.” — Guardian This iconoclastic study was one of the most widely debated books of 2000. Finkelstein indicts with both vigor and honesty those who exploit the tragedy of the Holocaust for their own personal political and financial gain. This new edition includes updated material discussing the initial reception to the book’s publication. In an iconoclastic and controversial new study, Norman G. Finkelstein moves from an interrogation of the place the Holocaust has come to occupy in American culture to a disturbing examination of recent Holocaust compensation agreements. 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. Recalling Holocaust fraudsters such as Jerzy Kosinski and Binjamin Wilkomirski, as well as the demagogic constructions of writers like Daniel Goldhagen, Finkelstein contends that the main danger posed to the memory of Nazism’s victims comes not from the distortions of Holocaust deniers but from prominent, self-proclaimed guardians of Holocaust memory. Drawing on a wealth of untapped sources, he exposes the double shakedown of European countries as well as legitimate Jewish claimants, and concludes that the Holocaust industry has become an outright extortion racket. Thoroughly researched and closely argued, The Holocaust Industry is all the more disturbing and powerful because the issues it deals with are so rarely discussed.

Review: Excellent and thought provoking - `Bout half way thru the book now, and it's extremely well put together and with well documented sources. It was nice to see that Mr. Finkelstein hit home that there's been many, Holocausts / ethnic cleansings / genocides (though he doesn't specifically name them all, here's just a few; 90 million-ish Native American exterminated by Christians, Catholics, Jews, atheists, etc., etc; The Bolshevik Trotsky a.k.a. Lev Bronshtein committed genocide in about 1917-1921 murdering about 4 million gentiles and Christians; yet, the Bolsheviks once again committed genocide against the gentiles and Christians murdering 7-10 million Ukrainians in 1932-1933. The Bolsheviks were brutely cruel. In fact, since the Bolsheviks murder's wall came down, many things are now coming to life. Roughly 65-120 million gentiles and Christians were murdered from 1917 to 1989 by the Communists. Now that's genocide. It's a shame the Native Americans and Christians do not have a museum in Washington D.C. to remember their 10's of millions who died by genocide. (Wouldn't it be nice if the people of the jewish faith honored the genocide of the Native Americans by building a museum in the middle of Tel Aviv?) Mr. Finkelstein shows us time and time and time again what happens when a person brings up documentation that contradicts the propaganda that's been thrust upon us for years. Any group of people that refuses to have an honest debate seems to immediately begin character assassinating. The character assassination of someone who asks questions is an immediate red flag of someone hiding something. During the last few decades we have discovered that Hitler DID NOT make soap, lamp shades, etc, etc. out of people of the jewish faith. (I was told for decades that Hitler did do these nasty things. Apparently a group of people had lied to me for decades.) We have also discovered that Hitler DID NOT have any homicidal gas chambers within the borders of Germany. (I was told for decades that Hitler did have homicidal gas chambers inside Germany. Again, apparently a group of people had lied to me for decades.) In fact, the dead emaciated corpses I've seen in pictures and film were thoroughly examined by U.S. Military medical professionals when the camps were liberated, and those medical experts clearly stated that all the dead bodies found in German camps were from typhus, starvation, and other diseases. The fine outstanding International Red Cross (who were physically present doing their humanitarian deeds at the concentration camps during the war) witnessed about 30,000 inmates die in one month from typhus and starvation in the last 90 or so days of the war - and the Red Cross begged the allies to stop the bombing of railways and continue to let food and meds thru. The allies refused. The Red Cross' well documented numbers of people of the jewish faith who died in all of Hitler's camps differ greatly from what I was told for decades as a child. These documents were hidden in the hands of communists, and only released after their wall came down and files were made open to more eyes. In fact, when the Communists murder's wall did come down, the Jewish historians at Auschwitz immediately changed the number of Jewish deaths by millions. Apparently the Bolshivks who liberated the Polish camps kept records secret from us; and the number of dead inmates that I've been told for decades was a complete fabrication. So thank you Mr. Finkelstein for this insightful book. Thank you for letting me know that certain people pressured our Congress to take my property (tax $) and build a museum in D.C. for an event that never happened on our soil. How selfish can a group of people be? You've opened by eyes and exposed many, many more lies that have thrust upon the American people. Thank you sir.
Review: Good read - For some reason I read parts of this book in the voice of a southern baptist preacher. Some of the writing seems to carry the anger and doom I remember feeling coming from those preachers. I have read about 3/4 of it so far and have enjoyed it. I intentionally looked for a book on this subject because of beliefs I had formed on my own and it is strange to see that according to this book my instinct was correct on a lot of it. It covers a lot I had never thought of also.
