There is little disagreement today that anti-Semitism is widespread, though certainly not universal, among Arab publics. The Pew Research Center reported in 2006 that “Anti-Jewish sentiment remains overwhelming in predominantly Muslim countries.” These feelings were particularly pronounced in Egypt and Jordan, where Pew found only 2 percent and 1 percent of the populations, respectively, holding positive opinions of Jews. Anecdotal evidence suggests that anti-Semitic feelings are widespread among Arab elites, not just the general population. For instance, Saudi King Faisal ibn Abdul Aziz al-Saud reportedly used to present copies of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, an anti-Semitic tract plagiarized by the tsarist Russian security service from an earlier French document (which did not refer to Jews at all), to visiting diplomats, even Henry Kissinger. According to Saddam, every time the Saudi king met with a visitor he brought up the dangers of Zionism, communism, and Masonry, which he considered one and the same threat.
