re: #582 Obdicut

If anyone reads the thread, they’ll see you defending Rush Limbaugh’s comments that were criticized by the ADL, while making the claim, unvarnished, that most of the major banks are Jewish-owned.

I was making the point that I saw populist attacks on bankers and Wallstreet to have antiSemetic undertones because there are several prominent investment banks on Wall Street which are Jewish owned, such as Lehmans, Glodman Sachs, Bear Stearns, and others. I later corrected myself to remove Morgan Stanley and add others.

I also noted that they always seem to focus on the Jewish owned banks such as Goldman Sachs and ignore the non-Jewish owned which are in the majority. Thus attacking the fat cats on wall-street and the greedy bankers is a dogwistle for antiSemitism in my book. We saw a similar thing in politics were the Left would demonise the so called Neo-cons, and would always name the Jewish ones and ignore those that were not.

When people make such attacks I see that as playing to antisemitism. That is my view and I supported it on that long thread. For you to distort that into my being antiSemitic to satisfy your urge to attack me on this unrelated thread is ugly and dishonest.
