"It is possible to trace modern Islamic anti-Semitism back along a number of different historical and intellectual threads, but, no matter which one you choose, they all seem to pass, at one point or another, through the hands of one figure—Hitler’s mufti, Hajj Amin al-Husseini, the viciously anti-Semitic grand mufti of Jerusalem and the leader of Muslim fundamentalists in Palestine, who resided in Berlin as a welcome guest of the Nazis throughout the years of the Holocaust."Read all of "Hitler’s Mufti" (FIRST THINGS) by David G. Dalin. David G. Dalin is a professor of history and political science at Ave Maria University. This article is adapted from his book The Myth of Hitler’s Pope.
