The Lie That Wouldn't Die
I initially wrote this article because of the author's book - titled above! An editor thinks that an image vof her Book cover violates "Fair Use." I disagree. Yours truly, --Ludvikus 02:58, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

"Scholarly"
What exactly do you consider scholarly about the book. I bought the book based on the advertisement blurb translated below by Michael Hagemeistersee red pdf.link on his university web page to his essay: The Protocols of the Elders of Zion - Between Histroy and Fiction:


 * The “Jewish global conspiracy” is still used today to explain wars and revolu-
 * tions, economic crises and stock market crashes, terrorism and AIDS. Again
 * and again the threads come together in a book: the Protocols of the Elders of
 * Zion. Hadassa Ben-Itto gets to the bottom of the story of these Protocols over
 * seven years of research. The result is a factual report that could not be more
 * absorbing and enthralling if it were invented, although the subject matter
 * would make an ideal thriller: conspiracy and murder, princesses and the Rus-
 * sian imperial family, secret services and leading industrialists—and a virtu-
 * ous young lawyer, who takes on all of this.

Have you read the book? What do you consider "scholarly" about fiction? Scholarly is clearly used to sell fiction as fact. I am not even sure if one can really blame her for the "seven years of research". Can I change it? The book deeply confused me, since I simply didn't expect to be served pulp fiction when I ordered it. LeaNder (talk) 20:06, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
