Amazon has been urged to remove a controversial book which claims Jews conspired against the Catholic church.
The book from 1962 was written by a group of Mexican priests under the pseudonym Maurice Pinay and is filled with antisemitic rhetoric.
Four versions of the book are being offered for sale on the website, with two being sold by Amazon directly.
The book claims to have “a magnificent and imposing compilation of documents and sources of undeniable importance” which prove a great conspiracy against the Catholic church.
In the item description of the book, the authors say Judaism is an “enemy” of the Catholic church.
They also write that “Jews, Masons and Communists” are using the Catholic church to further the aims of “atheistic communism.”
In addition, they say Catholic clergymen are “betraying the Holy Church” and “assist Communists, Masons and Jews in their subversive activities.”

Speaking on Tuesday, the Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) urged Amazon to remove the product from sale immediately.
A spokesperson said: "Selling a product whose sales pitch includes references to the 'subversive activities' of Jews is repugnant and has no place on Amazon.
“The retailer must remove this unashamedly racist material from its platform. We shall be writing to the company."
It comes after a chapter of the controversial book was lifted by Spanish public broadcaster RTVE in 2015 for a program.
The broadcaster titled it “From the Inferno — The Jewish People: Propagator of the Satan Cult”.
However, they later removed the programme after critics claimed it contained “more than a half-hour of unadulterated anti-Jewish conspiracy theories”.
An Amazon spokesperson said: “We're always listening to feedback and take these concerns very seriously. The title flagged is is being removed from sale.
"We have policies governing which books can be listed and invest significant time and resources to ensure our guidelines are followed. We remove products that do not adhere to our guidelines and also promptly investigate any book when a concern is raised.”
