THE HOLOCAUST INDUSTRY: REFLECTIONS ON THE EXPLOITATION OF JEWISH SUFFERING (Second Edition)

		Raul Hilberg, most distinguished historian on the Nazi holocaust and member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, comments on the first edition of The Holocaust Industry: "When I read Finkelstein's book, The Holocaust Industry , at the time of its appearance, I was in the middle of my own investigations of these matters, and I came to the conclusion that he was on the right track. I refer now to the part of the book that deals with the claims against the Swiss banks, and the other claims pertaining to forced labor. I would now say in retrospect that he was actually conservative, moderate and that his conclusions are trustworthy. He is a well-trained political scientist, has the ability to do the research, did it carefully, and has come up with the right results. I am by no means the only one who, in the coming months or years, will totally agree with Finkelstein's breakthrough." More of Hilberg's statements on The Holocaust Industry and Finkelstein here.

Praise For The Book

"Informing Finkelstein's analysis is a universal ethics... He, and not the Jewish organizations he criticizes, is following the example set by the great Jewish prophets."



"...clever, explosive, sometimes even wryly funny."



"... a short, sharp and copiously noted polemic."



"... his basic argument that memories of the Holocaust are being debased is serious and should be given its due."



"... Finkelstein has raised some important and uncomfortable issues... examples cited can be breathtaking in their angry accuracy and irony."



"Finkelstein is at his best when he skewers those who would sacralize the Holocaust..."
