Why Are There So Many Jews In Beck’s Rogues Gallery?

Glenn Beck has said that “there is no one” more “pro-Jew” than himself, but we’ve shown that claim to be pretty dubious. Not only has Beck used his show to promote the work of anti-Semitic writers like Eustace Mullins and Elizabeth Dilling, he also flogged anti-Semitic stereotypes during his series of lengthy “reports” on the supposedly shadowy international financier and “puppet master” George Soros. Beck has also repeatedly advanced former Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad’s claim that Soros was “helped trigger the economic meltdown” of Southeast Asian currencies in 1997 — which Mahathir had reportedly suggested was part of a Jewish “agenda.”

And then there was tonight’s episode, the theme of which was that the 20th century should be seen as “the era of the big lie.” According to Beck, during the past 100 years a loose association of shadowy figures who believed themselves to be the “intelligent minority” infected the country with their notion that the people are “animals” who can be controlled through propaganda. He further warned that this same elite was leading the modern progressive movement and would similarly seek to manipulate the masses in the twenty-first century.
