Reviews"A patient and painstaking invalidation of antisemitism that also highlights its perniciousness. " --Publishers Weekly "An interesting examination of how conspiracy theories appear, spread, and metastasize--not unlike tumors. With solid research and engaging humor, this book takes apart the conspiracy theories surrounding the Rothschild family. --Kirkus Reviews "Mike Rothschild's Jewish Space Lasers is a cutting exposé of centuries'-worth of antisemitic scapegoating, often done with one influential family at its center. . . . Dissecting centuries-old antisemitic canards that maintain their hold on the popular imagination--with staggering political implications--a thorough and sobering text." -- Foreword Reviews " Jewish Space Lasers is a surprisingly intense history of antisemitism surrounding the disgraceful and debunked Christian conspiracy theories that the Jewish elite led by the Rothschild family, Holocaust survivor George Soros, and all Jews by extension are the invisible hand controlling the global market. Jewish Space Lasers offers a cracking hard look at the dangerous and deadly explosion of antisemitism in America today." --MALCOLM NANCE, New York Times bestselling author of They Want to Kill Americans: The Militias, Terrorists, and Deranged Ideology of the Trump Insurgency "Mike Rothschild has done it again. First with QAnon, and now with the legendary Rothschild family, he investigates and dismantles one of the most dangerous and vile conspiracy theories of all time. The story he tells is about more than just a baseless lie that won't die; it's a larger tale about how those lies shape our culture and our politics for generations. Rothschild is an ideal guide through the dark byways of paranoia and antisemitism--unflinching, exhaustive, witty, and, above all, committed to the truth." --ANDY KROLL, ProPublica investigative reporter, author of A Death on W Street: The Murder of Seth Rich and the Age of Conspiracy "Like Mike Rothschild's incredible deconstruction of QAnon in The Storm Is Upon Us , Jewish Space Lasers takes a thoroughly engrossing deep dive into the absurd conspiracy theories surrounding Judaism's 'royal family.' It unpacks that age-old stereotype 'the Jews control everything' and brilliantly examines the mysterious dynasty credited for being at the center of it all. It's a globe-trotting breakdown of antisemitism throughout history to the very chilling moment we are in now. Absorbing, entertaining, and exhaustively researched--a must-read." --TERRY MATALAS, Executive Producer, Star Trek: Picard, 12 Monkeys ACCLAIM FOR THE STORM IS UPON US "I hope everyone reads this book. It has become such a crucial thing for all of us to understand." --Erin Burnett, CNN "[T]imely and chilling ... Rothschild is brilliant at outlining the process by which people who were not previously drawn to political extremism come to see themselves as 'patriotic researchers', able to see patterns in the information that is fed to them." --Financial Times, ACCLAIM FOR THE STORM IS UPON US "I hope everyone reads this book. It has become such a crucial thing for all of us to understand." --Erin Burnett, CNN "[T]imely and chilling ... Rothschild is brilliant at outlining the process by which people who were not previously drawn to political extremism come to see themselves as 'patriotic researchers', able to see patterns in the information that is fed to them." --Financial Times

SynopsisFor more than 200 years, the name 'Rothschild' has been synonymous with two things: great wealth, and conspiracy theories about what they're 'really doing' with it. Almost from the moment Mayer Amschel Rothschild and his sons emerged from the Jewish ghetto of Frankfurt to revolutionize the banking world, the Rothschild family has been the target of myths, bizarre accusations, and constant antisemitism. Jewish Space Lasers is a deeply researched dive into the history of the conspiracy industry around the Rothschild family - from the 'pamphlet wars' of Paris in the 1840's to the cinemas of the Third Reich a hundred years later, and to Broadway, rap industry gossip rags, extremist compounds, and the dankest pits of the internet today Author Mike Rothschild - who isn't related to the family - sorts out myth from reality to find the truth about these conspiracy theories and their spreaders. Who were the Rothschilds? Who are they today? What role do they actually play in European history and politics? Is any of this actually true? And why, even as their wealth and influence have waned, do they continue to drive conspiracies and hoaxes?, The strange tale of how one Jewish family --the Rothschilds--became a lightning rod for conspiracy theories over the course of the last 2 centuries . . . In 2018 Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene took to social media to share her suspicions that the California wildfires were started by 'space solar generators' which were funded by powerful, mysterious backers. Instantly, thousands of people rallied around her, blaming the fires on "Jewish space lasers" and, ultimately, the Rothschild family. For more than 200 years, the name "Rothschild" has been synonymous with two things: great wealth, and conspiracy theories about what they're "really doing" with it. Almost from the moment Mayer Amschel Rothschild and his sons emerged from the Jewish ghetto of Frankfurt to revolutionize the banking world, the Rothschild family has been the target of myths, hoaxes, bizarre accusations, and constant, virulent antisemitism. Over the years, they have been blamed for everything from the sinking of the Titanic, to causing the Great Depression, and even creating the COVID-19 pandemic. Jewish Space Lasers The Rothschilds and 200 Years of Conspiracy Theories is a deeply researched dive into the history of the conspiracy industry around the Rothschild family - from the "pamphlet wars" of Paris in the 1840s to the dankest pits of the internet today. Journalist and conspiracy theory expert Mike Rothschild , who isn't related to the family, sorts out myth from reality to find the truth about these conspiracy theories and their spreaders. Who were the Rothschilds? Who are they today? Do they really own $500 trillion and every central bank, in addition to "controlling the British money supply?" Is any of this actually true? And why, even as their wealth and influence have waned, do they continue to drive conspiracies and hoaxes?
