Rob Eshman (June 19, 2024). "Misplaced Pages called the ADL 'unreliable.' It's a wake-up call the civil rights organization badly needs". The Forward. Retrieved June 20, 2024. One featured item of evidence: Editors' removal of an article titled "Nazism in Palestinian Society," which they flagged as "soapbox," or leaning toward anti-Palestinian advocacy. Not mentioned: That Misplaced Pages offers a far more thorough entry, "Relations between Nazi Germany and the Arab world" which delves deeply into the Nazi-Palestinian alliance.
half-apes or half maniacs?
Hitler called the people of the Far East and Arabia "Halbaffen". The great majority of English translations use the literal "half-apes", but at least one uses "half maniacs", namely this (p259). The English phrase "half maniac" seems to be pretty obsolete; once it referred to a person with wild unpredictable behavior or something like that (I can't find a formal dictionary definition, can anyone?). It would be reasonable to mention both possibilities, but not to replace the common translation with a phrase few people now understand. Zero 01:42, 10 March 2015 (UTC
Hi im not really into this, but im just gonna say that naziislamism is a stupid word invented by the danish conservative party to use as an islamofobic thing. Hope you gonna look into this. Best regards Frederik.
It seems quite important to keep in - maybe make it first. It is so absurd to have Zionist in this article - why is this even on the talk page? The source quoted says:
> Germany and the Arab world also shared the same enemies: the Jews, Great Britain, and the Soviet Union Lansey (talk) 05:40, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
Al-Husayni stressed in his speeches and writings the common interests of Germany and Italy with those of Arabs and Muslims. Nazi Germany was the natural ally of the Arab and Muslim world. Not only had Germany never imposed colonial rule on an Arab state, Germany and the Arab world also shared the same enemies: the Jews, Great Britain, and the Soviet Union. Al-Husayni pointed out that Germany alone recognized the global threat of the "Jewish problem" and took steps to "solve" it globally.
Removing means omitting the fact, thus we should avoid it. I've been trying to fact check that Nazi were fighting against Zionist movement, but the only information I could find was thesis that Zionists actually partnered with Hitler to effectively exile Jews from Europe to Palestine. While I personally don't think that this thesis has something to deal with the reality. I remember that Russian antisemitists are very often referring to themselves as Zionists and state that they want all Jews to live in Israel (but themselves they are not Jewish, so this effectively translates into motto "Jews Go Home") and are doing they're best to "motivate" anyone who looks Jewish in Russia to leave the country. But yeah, bottom line, "Jews" instead of "Zionists" seem to be more precise definition. Baitcode (talk) 15:06, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
"Zionists actually partnered with Hitler to effectively exile Jews from Europe to Palestine."
No, that's not an accurate description at all. It sounds like you picked up that this is counter-factual propaganda. Think of the Haavara Agreement like a hostage negotiation. Every Jew in Europe had a 75% chance of dying by the end of the war. The Zionists view that for every 100 Jews who left Europe for Mandate Palestine, 75 Jewish lives were saved. Thus, in the Zionist view, the Haavara Agreement saved 45,000 Jewish lives. The Haavara Agreement was supported by the German treasury department under the relative moderate, Hjallmar Schacht, and was ended by the state department for contradicting the Reich's Jewish policies.
This line of criticism of the Haavara Agreement originated in Soviet propaganda, which was plagiarized by Mahmoud Abbas at the University of Moscow, becoming a mainstream Antizionist talking point ever since.
As for Zionist activities against the Nazis, most of the Jewish resistance were Zionists. The Jewish Combat Organization headed by Mordechai Anielewicz was Zionist. Rosa Robota was a Zionist, as was Hannah Szenes. One of my goals in editing Misplaced Pages is that information like this should be more readily researchable, where now it is too difficult to find.
Judging the Haavara Agreement with hindsight is an error. Nobody at the time (not even most Nazis) knew that the Holocaust was coming. Zero00:37, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
Herzl himself knew that something very much like the Holocaust was coming. From 1881 onwards there was a relentless, unremitting and increasingly total brutal violence unleashed upon the Jewish population of Russia and Europe. This isn’t debatable, it’s not subjective or disputed. This is the entire reason, which he explains explicitly and in detail across many books and speeches, why he calls for the establishment of a self-governing Jewish state, not in order to oppress but in order to escape the coming disaster.

== motivation
There is a duplication between 2 paragraphs about the "hostility towards uk france and the jews.
I simply rearranged the sentences a bit, so one paragraph discusses antisemism and the other discusses uk/france.
I find the new format much clearer.
As a bonus:
- there is no 'hinted' association with the entire Arab World, as the sentence clearly states "some arab leaders". (Dan)
- the colonial subject is not "interrupted" by antisemitsm subject, but immediately flows to the anglo-iraqi war; this makes it easier to read.
- the complete nonsense about zionism and Nazi Germany is removed
= edit =
Replace the text staring with:
"The cooperative political and miltary"
Up to: "antisemitism in Islam"
With the text below.
I think your proposed change is good. I'd prefer something like
This hostility was used in Nazi propaganda to allege an anti colonial common interest that Nazi Germany held. However this interest conflicted with interests of Nazi Germany's allies who held colonies in the Arab world, namely Spain, Vichy France and Italy, and this had to manage competing interests in the region.
Thank you. You make a good point. Perhaps modify "Nazi propganda" to "Nazi propaganda to the Arab world", this is slightly more accurate.. Ofer.molad (talk) 15:34, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
It's a primary source. Completely inappropriate for anything in the lede. It's about public opinion in some countries and could be summarized thusly: "Hitler wrote that Italy's colony in Libya and atrocities there - as well as German support for France's colonies in North Africa - hurt the cause of The Axis in the region."Dan Murphy (talk) 14:37, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
I think Hitler being worried about Italian colonialism and atrocities impacting Germany's ability to penetrate the Arab world is fairly relevant to this article, no? In any case, I'm pretty sure I've seen this brought up in an RS; will try to dig it up so we don't have to rely on a primary source. Meluiel (talk) 23:30, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
