Summary "In The Holocaust, Israel, and Canadian Protestant Churches Haim Genizi distinguishes between legitimate criticism of Israel and antisemitic attacks on its legitimacy and right to exist. He pays particular attention to the controversy surrounding A.C. Forrest, editor of the influential United Church Observer, which constantly criticized Israel's policies and strongly supported the Palestinian cause, a position that led to a serious dispute with the Canadian Jewish community."--Jacket
