According to David Aaronovitch
in his book Voodoo Histories: The Role of Conspiracy Theory in Shaping Modern History, the guy who introduced the Protocols to Nasser's Egypt and thus ignited modern Arab anti-Judaism/anti-Zionism (no sense calling it anti-Semitism, since Arabs are themselves Semites) was the same guy who'd introduced it to Nazism, having converted to Islam.

But then I like Hanlon's Razor:
"Never attribute to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence"

i.e. Every government conspiracy ever uncovered or suspected is not the work of an evil mastermind or evil plot, but in fact is the attempt to cover up and make the best of the fact that someone somewhere fucked up spectacularly.
