There seems to be no end to the West's obsession with Nazism, Hitler and the Third Reich, says prominent British journalist Simon Jenkins. What's behind this?

Two American scholars who've been viciously smeared as anti-Semites are Steven Walt and John Mearsheimer, authors of The Israel Lobby, an important book that shows how this powerful lobby sets US Middle East policy.

In spite of her background, in 1938 she nominated Hitler for the Nobel Peace Prize.
