Belloc's Antisemitism

Hilaire Belloc's writings are anti-Semitic: he consistently mocks the Arab and Islam, deriding them in several of his works. (E.g. the last three chapters of The Battle Ground and the entire The Mercy of Allah which is a caricature of one of the world's great civilizations, surprising in such a versatile thinker. His position, sad to say, is typical of the American conservative Catholic.)
