Worldwide protests against the rapid rise in blood-libels and Holocaust denial among Arabs has led a few writers in the Arab world to speak out against their peers. After over a year of criticism, the Egyptian newspaper Al-Ahram publihsed a few articles which admitted that anti-Semitism is rampant in Arab nations. He writes that anti-Semitism should be considered to be European, and foreign to Islam. This series of articles expose the myths of [[The Protocols of the Elders of Zion]] and the blood libel, and decries them and false and anti-Semitic. The writer, Al-Baz, warns thatanti-Semitism does, in fact, refer to hatred of Jews, many Arabs can and are anti-Semitic, and that Arabs have to finally recognize that the [[Holocaust]] really did happen. After speaking out against racism against all groups, including Jews, the writer finally states that all responsibility for the Arab-Israeli conflict is due to [[Zionism]]. In this view, Jewish Zionists are to blame for the rise of anti-Semitism.

Worldwide protests against the rapid rise in blood-libels and Holocaust denial among Arabs has led a few writers in the Arab world to speak out against their peers. The Egyptian newspaper Al-Ahram published a series of articles which admitted that anti-Semitism is rampant in Arab nations. The author of this series was Osam Al-Baz, a senior advisor to Egyptian President [[Hosni Mubarak]]. In his articles he writes that anti-Semitism should be considered to be of European origin, and foreign to Islam. This series of articles expose the myths of [[The Protocols of the Elders of Zion]] and the blood libel, and decries them and false and anti-Semitic. Al-Baz warns that the term "anti-Semitism" refers specifically to hatred of Jews, and that many Arabs are anti-Semitic. He writes that Arabs have to recognize that the [[Holocaust]] really did occur. After speaking out against racism against all groups, including Jews, the writer states that responsibility for the Arab-Israeli conflict is due to [[Zionism]], and that not all Israelies are bad.
