Antisemitism at Cairo International Book Fair

Here is the cover of a book called "History of the Zionist Movement and its Organizations," by , being shown at the Cairo International Book Fair this week.

Of course.

Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement: “We are concerned about the continued presence of signs of antisemitism in Egyptian society, as this is reflected in the books that are published and also presented at the Cairo International Book Fair. We are determined to continue our efforts in strengthening cooperation with our interlocutors In Egypt, in a way that promotes peace, stability and security, and at the same time combating anti-Semitism."

Notably, however, there are a number of books about Jews at the fair that appear to try at least to be real histories of Jews in Egypt.
