Citing this Jerusalem Post article, the ultimate sentence reads: "Petra Marquardt-Bigman in The Jerusalem Post criticized how the book compares the Israeli state to Nazi Germany, calling it a form of 'bigotry'." The statement doesn't represent Marquardt-Bigman's argument accurately.
Writing about the Simon Wiesenthal Center's (SWC) 2013 list of the “Top 10 Anti-Semitic/Anti-Israel Slurs”, Marquardt-Bigman states it was Blumenthal's "recently published book Goliath: Life and Loathing in Greater Israel and his efforts “to equate Israelis with Nazis” that earned Blumenthal a place on the list." I have searched an ebook version of Goliath and, editors might like to note, the only Nazi comparison written in Blumenthal's own voice I can find is on page 1010.8/1475: "In modern day Israel, the African refugee occupied a similar role as the devious Jew in Weimar-era Nazi propaganda and the criminal “nigra” constantly invoked by racist Dixiecrats such as Strom Thurmond in the Jim Crow South." The other references were quotations of other people, all or mostly by Jews about Arabs or non-Jews. ← ZScarpia14:39, 26 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
