Have you seen the tv-movie "Conspiracy"? I tried downloading it, only to discover I'd found a Val Kilmer flick of the same name.
I didn't get the point of the Huxley joke. I hadn't heard anything about him being anti-semitic.
TGGP: If you're referring to the Kenneth Branagh movie about the Wannsee Conference, I haven't seen "Conspiracy," though I saw newspapaer reviews of it. I haven't seen or heard of the Val Kilmer flick of the same name. Huxley has no reputation for anti-Semitism and that's part of the joke. The point of it is that the title of "Eyeless in Gaza" could be (mis)interpreted as expressing sympathy for Palestinians in Gaza and, therefore, anti-Israel, and, therefore, anti-Semitic.
