Horseman Without a Horse is a multi-million-dollar production starring leading Egyptian actor Muhammad Subhi in 14 different roles with a large international cast from Egypt, Syria and France. The program was made by Arab Radio and Television (ART) a popular satellite channel based in Jedda, Saudi Arabia. Roz Al-Youssuf, an Egyptian weekly, said in an admiring preview that the series successfully debunks Jewish claims that the Protocols -- the supposed minutes of the Jewish clique that controls the world -- were a forgery invented by anti-Semitic propagandists in Tsarist Russia. "For the first time, the series' writer courageously tackles the 24 Protocols of the Elders of Zion, revealing them and clarifying that they are the central line that still, to this very day, dominates Israel's policy, po litical aspirations and racism," the paper reported. The Protocols, which first surfaced in Russia at the end of the 19th century, have fed anti- Semitic conspiracy theories that suggest Jews seek to exercise world domination through control of the media, banking system and political movements. They were popular in Nazi Germany and are required reading among neo-Nazi groups to this day. The Protocols have sold thousands of copies in several Arabic editions and are particularly popular in Egypt and Syria. News of the ART production comes as Dubai TV continues its nightly broadcast of Terrorman -- a Ramadan satire depicting Ariel Sharon, the Israeli Prime Minister, drinking the blood of Arab children. Since Sept. 11, one often-repeated fantasy that has been pushed is that the Israeli Mossad was behind the World Trade Center attack -- a gruesome twist on the Jewish conspiracy theory that finds its most potent expression in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
