(FrontPageMagazine) Marc Tobiass - A Catalan from Barcelona and former Spanish parliamentarian, Pilar Rahola is known for her feminism, as well as for her frank and direct manner.

Her most recent piece, "In Favor of Israel," is to be published in a book in which fifteen Spanish intellectuals, including Jon Juaristi, president of the Cervantes Institute, and Gabriel Alviac, a well-known journalist with El Mundo, seek to address the anti-Jewish school of thought in Spain. "The goal of our book is to launch a debate about Judeophobia in Spain," said Rahola. "It is unbelievable how Europe continues to hate its Jewish soul, even after it has expelled it."
