3. THE JEWISH THREAT - ANTI-SEMETIC POLITICS OF THE U.S. ARMY
Bemdersky. Joseph W

New York: Basic Books, 2000. First fully documented study of a functioning anti-Semetic worldview within an American institution of government. Details Jewish files of U.S. Military Intelligence which reveal that many generals and commanders including Moseley, Patton, and MacArthurs's intelligence chief Willougby believed in the physical, intellectual, and moral inferiority of Jews, and feared that Jews threatened their "superior" Anglo-Saxon culture, gene pool, government and national interests. Moreover, the book shows how difficult it is to alter or eradicate such prejudices once they are deeply imbedded in the culture and personnel of government institutions. In fact, even after the Holocaust, prominent retired generals went to their deaths in the 1970s and 1980s still believing in a Jewish threat to America.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 8vo.
