This person seems to be the boogie-man that Zionists are pointing at these days to explain why today's Palestinians are the actual Nazis, not Zionists themselves. What's the materialist response for this smearing and conflating of today's besieged Palestinians with this one guy?

He wasn’t the world historical figure standard Zionist history makes him out to be, and it’s debatable how responsible he was for encouraging “anti Jewish riots.” (In many cases these were unpaid laborers vs. shopkeeper/landlord riots who included Jews, Christians, and Muslims) He was a radio crank sort of like Father Coughlin. He had more of an influence in recruiting Muslim Yugoslavs to fascism than anything in Palestine.
