She presents herself as a historian but lacks any such official qualification. In \u003cem\u003eEurabia: The Euro-Arab Axis\u003c/em\u003e, she introduces the concept of \u0026lsquo;Eurabia\u0026rsquo;, referring to a Europe that is Islamised and that eventually will be completely absorbed by the Arab world. The starting point of Bat Ye\u0026#39;or\u0026#39;s conspiracy theory is a historical one: she cites a number of agreements that took place between leaders of European and Arab countries in the 1970s and the creation of the Euro-Arab Dialogue. Bat Ye\u0026#39;or claims that during the Copenhagen European Summit of December 1973, where the \u0026#39;dialogue\u0026#39; was supposedly launched, the Arab contingent agreed to ensure the supply of oil to Europe in exchange for allowing migration, in order to Islamise Europe.

In 2007, Bat Ye\u0026#39;or and her husband David Littman, an Israeli lobbyist at the United Nations, were keynote speakers at the CounterJihad event, organised in the buildings of the European Parliament in Brussels by Flemish nationalist and extreme-right party Vlaams Belang. CounterJihad is an international, loose political movement of authors, bloggers, think tanks and pressure groups that do not consider Islam a religion but rather an existential threat to the \u0026lsquo;West\u0026#39;.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp\u003eBat Ye\u0026#39;or (Hebreeuws voor \u0026lsquo;dochter van de Nijl\u0026rsquo;) is het pseudoniem van Giselle Littman, een Britse schrijfster van Joods-Egyptische afkomst.

Bat Ye\u0026#39;or laat haar complottheorie beginnen bij een aantal overeenkomsten tussen leiders van Europese- en Arabische landen in de jaren 1970 en de oprichting van de Euro-Arabische Dialoog. Daar zou zijn afgesproken om de toevoer van olie naar Europa te verzekeren in ruil voor het toestaan van migratie om Europa te islamiseren.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"margin-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u0026quot;De drie duidelijkste symptomen van deze fundamentele verandering in het Europese beleid zijn officieel gesponsord antiamerikanisme, antisemitisme / antizionisme en \u0026#39;palestinisme\u0026#39;.
