«Holocaustes: Israël, Gaza et la guerre contre l'Occident» is the geopolitical essay by Gilles Kepel (Plon, paperback, 216 pages, in French).
Kepel analyses the violence unleashed on 7 October 2023 and the Israeli offensive in Gaza, where mysticism and politics intertwine. He contrasts the radical Islamism of Hamas and its Iranian allies with Netanyahu's strategies, and presents the conflict as a war against the West and its values.
Published in 2024 by Plon, the book falls within history and geopolitics and credits Fabrice Balanche as cartographer.
For readers interested in geopolitics, the Middle East and analysis of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
