On Democracies and Death Cults: Israel and the Future of Civilization

Contact Your Elected Officials

In his travels through Israel and Gaza, #1 International Bestselling author Douglas Murray has seen the best and the worst humanity has to offer, and he has no trouble choosing a side.

Murray is not Jewish and before October 7, he had never lived in Israel. However, he objects to being lied to, and Israel has been on the receiving end of the biggest, deepest, longest lies in history. 

Israel’s commitment to fundamental Western valuesโ€”capitalism, individual rights, democracy, and reasonโ€”has made it a beacon of progress in a region dominated by authoritarianism and extremism. Israelโ€™s principles vividly contrast with the ideology of Hamas, which openly proclaims its love of death over life. With incisive moral clarity, On Democracies and Death Cults exposes how the campus left and international establishment confuse this conflict by:

  • Calling onย Israel for restraint and proportionality, while Hamas commits genocide.
  • Slandering Israelis as white colonialists, while only a third of Israelis are Jews of European ancestry.
  • Framing the conflict as oppressor vs. oppressed, when it is really between a thriving multi-ethnic democracy and a death cult bent on its annihilation.ย 

Drawing from intensive on-the-ground reporting in Israel, Gaza, and Lebanon, Douglas Murray places the latest violence in its proper historical context. He takes readers on a harrowing journey through the aftermath of the October 7 massacre, piecing together the exclusive accounts from victims, survivors, and even the terrorists responsible for the atrocities. If left unchecked, misplaced sympathy could embolden forces that seek to undermine not only Israel, but all of Western civilization.
