Israeli Professor Shlomo Sand says the mythical perception of the Jews as "a chosen nation-race" have led to truly racist thinking by Israeli officials. He believes the Zionist regime is becoming isolated for subjecting Palestinians to apartheid.

But so far, the events in Exodus, the second book of the Hebrew Bible, were largely exploited as a historic fact. It says Israelis were "chosen people" and that God promised them "a holy land" in return for their faithfulness. And till this very day, that is the basis of the Israeli claims over the Palestinian lands.

Such "tragedies" Sand sees projected in the latest move by Israeli officials to cut ties with the UN Human Rights Council over investigations into Jewish settlements in the West Bank. He describes this move as "suicidal" and says the world must "save Israel from itself".

Professor Sand delivered one of his key-note speeches here - at Bulgaria's oldest university, where most of the nation's intellectuals and politicians have graduated.

So, people were eager to learn from an insider, Israeli himself, about some of the most dangerous myths in modern history.

But so far, the events in Exodus, the second book of the Hebrew Bible, were largely exploited as a historic fact. It says Israelis were "chosen people" and that God promised them "a holy land" in return for their faithfulness. And till this very day, that is the basis of the Israeli claims over the Palestinian lands.

Sand calls this "the longest nationalistic conflict in modern history". He believes Zionism is a severe type of nationalism - and as such, its ideologists have resorted to ethnic cleansing not only in the occupied territories, but also towards their own citizens who don't consider themselves Jews.

Shlomo Sand's book "The Invention of the Jewish People" became a best-seller throughout Europe. His new work - "The invention of the land of Israel" is expected with even greater anticipation.
