Reddit reviews The Farhud: Roots of the Arab-Nazi Alliance in the Holocaust

In 1941 there was an Arab uprising against Britain by Arabs that considered themselves allies of the Nazis. They lasted about a month, but not before instigating the Farhud, the largest and deadliest pogrom in the middle east. Only a prelude to the civil rights taken away from Jews in Iraq after WW2 which would the Jewish community in Iraq. A community 1000 years older than Islam and had played host to the exilarch, or 'patriach in exile', the last known family in direct descent of King David.

In the early Muslim Brotherhood itself the biggest ally of the Nazis was Sayyid Qutb, whose personal tome is translated from Arabic, 'My Struggle Against the Jews' - the reference is obvious. Qutb was far more willing to use than the founder Hassan Al-Banna and as such Al-Qaeda and Hamas are merely implementations of their spiritual grandfather.

The Ba'ath parties that dominated after overthrowing their appropriate kings in Egypt, Iraq, and Syria were all modeled after the Nazi party. As Hitler had espoused a pan-Germanic nationalism, so did Ba'ath promote a pan-Arabic nationalism. Briefly resulting in the United Arab Republic of Egypt-Syria, a terribly unstable and viciously racist affair.

In 1944 the Nazis made a last ditch effort to expand the Holocaust to British Palestine. In Operation Atlas three German Templars that lived in Palestine together with two Arabs parachuted in British Palestine with enough Arsenic to kill 250,000 people. They planned to poison the water supply of Tel Aviv. This was last ditch because of course the Nazis were pushed back by the Soviet Union instead of being able to expand the 'normal' processes of the Holocaust to the area. https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Operation_Atlas_(Mandatory_Palestine)

Edit: The Arab League boycott of the Jewish community based in British Palestine, now Israel began in 1945. It was modeled after the Nazi boycott of the Jewish community. Note that 1945 is before the creation of Israel, before the Nakba, before the 1967 Six Day War, before the occupation. The boycott was about the Yishuv, or Jewish Community in Palestine, largely calling for having an independent state, not some protest about the treatment of Arabs in Palestine. A person who is joining the modern BDS movement, is in actuality joining the Arab Boycott as the PLO is part of the Arab League. And that boycott is modeled after the Nazis. There is nothing new under the sun. https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Arab_League_boycott_of_Israel

TL;DR A number of Arabs, some of which were instrumental to the future of the Middle East considered themselves more allied to the Nazis than vice versa. Their admiration of the Nazis created many of both the authoritarian regimes that dominated the latter half of the 20th century and inspired some of the worst Islamist terrorist groups today.

There are many books on the subject, and there was a unit on it in the holocaust class I took at Cal.

and a good critical view that looks at both sides:

They're a self governing territory same as the west bank. But you're still correct it's the military regime is Hamas who sinks aid money into digging tunnels they can use to attack Israel from and rockets. Let's not pretend they're some innocent party here, they store weapons in schools and mosques for fucks sake. Also the claim that the land was stolen from them is just flat out a lie. Prior to WWI it was a part of the Ottoman empire. Afterwards the parts not governed by Britain were controlled by Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, and the French.

To explain the history of why Israel does not take any shit from its Arab neighbors particularly groups like Hamas who exist to kill them all. And don't take my word for it it's in their founding charter.

"Initiatives, and so-called peaceful solutions and international conferences, are in contradiction to the principles of the Islamic Resistance Movement. Abusing any part of Palestine is abuse directed against part of religion. Nationalism of the Islamic Resistance Movement is part of its religion. Its members have been fed on that. For the sake of hoisting the banner of Allah over their homeland they fight. "Allah will be prominent, but most people do not know."

They don't want to peace they want to destroy Israel and slaughter the Jews. How would you deal with a group like that?

The reasons for this go back prior to Israel being founded.
