He highlights that the three movements that have been integral to the war against liberal democracy -- communism, Nazism and radical Islamism -- all deal with the Jewish question in a disproportionate manner.

He goes on to focus on the writings and influence of Sayyid Qutb, the spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood.
