A reader spotted a rather strange correction in The Guardian regarding a recent book review of “The Question of Zion” by UK academic Jacqueline Rose:

In an interview with Jacqueline Rose (page 24, G2, November 28) we said her new book, The Question of Zion, “draws tentative analogies between Israel’s treatment of Palestinians and Nazi Germany’s treatment of Jews”. In fact, while she draws links between the National Socialist and Israeli concepts of nationhood, she rejects the analogy between the Nazi extermination of the Jews and Zionism.

Emanuele Ottolenghi, another UK academic, debunked the book as nothing more than a diatribe, and saying all Rose did was “adapt reality to an unbending ideological fervor.”
