"In the 1920s, Hajj Amin-al-Husseini was the political and spiritual leader of the Palestinian Arabs. A vicious anti-Semite, he led numerous pogroms against Jewish settlers. During World War II, al-Husseini allied himself and his people with Hitler; he lived in Germany, met with Hitler, encouraged "the final solution," and became close friends with Himmler and other Nazis. After the war, al-Husseini escaped (he would certainly have been convicted at Nuremberg for war crimes) and fled to Egypt."--Publisher's description.;Preface -- Rendezvous with destiny -- The genesis of modern jihad -- Partners in genocide -- The mufti's reflection -- The mufti's return to the Middle East -- Mandate for hate -- The mufti's legacy.
