"Hatred was at the core of the Holocaust and all its methods of annihilation. Yet in the wake of the Holocaust, hatred did not become a significant animus for the Jewish people. Every generation must evaluate the meaning of the Holocaust within the continuum of Jewish history. Rene Levy s book, which deals systematically with the phenomenon of hatred and specifically with baseless hatred presents a gripping challenge: what are the ways and means for dealing with the dynamics of disputes and divisiveness, particularly expressions of baseless hatred, within the Jewish people? This is an opening for a vital discussion for all of us."" --- Avner Shalev,Chairman, Yad Vashem Directorate; Brigadier General, IDF
Rene Levy s book Baseless Hatred attempts to pinpoint the fundamental source of evil and find ways to reduce it.... Levy analyzes the Jewish people as a whole, focusing with surgical precision on the State of Israel. Delving deep into various sources, historiosophy, theology, and the Zionist endeavor, this work presents an analysis of hatred among the people of Israel, including that which led to 1,878 years of exile. This book will find its place in the libraries of readers at the highest level. With its direct relevance to current events, Baseless Hatred will serve as a springboard for vital public discussions."" --- Professor Shevah Weiss, former Speaker of the Knesset; former Chairman, Yad Vashem Council
Hatred is a harsh sentiment that defies exact definition, and yet it is encountered by all of us at some point in our lives. Baseless hatred is identified by Jewish tradition as the cause for the destruction of the Second Temple, and thus as emblematic for the substantial personal and collective harm that has ensued. In its most extreme form, this kind of hate aims to exterminate one s fellow man. Even when it is not totally eradicated, baseless hatred can be channeled and restrained. Levy s book is an effective jumping-off point for discussion of this important subject. --- Professor Dan Michman, Head of the International Institute for Holocaust Research and Incumbent of the John Najmann Chair of Holocaust Studies, Yad Vashem; Chair, Finkler Institute of Holocaust Research, Bar-Ilan University"
