Sabrina Soffer's Arabs and Jews: The Holocaust and its Aftermath at Fathom:

The lasting effects of Nazi ideology on Arab-Israeli relations post-1948 underscore the imperative to critically address hateful propaganda and education in shaping Arab-Israeli tensions. While acknowledging the instances of Arab solidarity and protection of Jews during the Holocaust, we must also grapple with the more ominous aspects, including the collaboration with Nazi forces and the merging of antisemitic Nazi and Soviet propaganda with Islamist fundamentalism. This trifecta of ideologies plays a significant role in an existential struggle against Israel and Jews globally, jeopardising the peace and security of not only the Middle East, but the entirety of Western civilization.

Too dense and detailed really to do it justice by picking extracts – needs to be read in full.

[Though "we must caution monolithing the Arab collective..". Monolithing? Ouch.]
