The article focuses on multiculturalism in the U.S. with reference to several books. In the book, "God Changes Everything," Katha Pollitt mentioned the degeneration of the Roman Catholic Church. She also instanced the way in which Judaism has become prostituted to uses of messianic colonialism in Palestine. H.R. Haldeman's diaries of the Watergate years, published in 1994, gave an account of a conversation between Richard Nixon and Billy Graham that included some heated talk about Satanic Jews. "The Ornament of the World," by Maria Rosa Menocal, has been published at the perfect moment. It is a history of medieval Andalusia, a culture where there was extensive cooperation and even symbiosis among Muslims, Jews and Christians.
