Your post remonds me of the arab antisemite who says he can’t be an antisemite, because he is a semite.

You and I know that the term is specifically about jews, and not about all semites.

Well, here we have the same idea. The jews control congress is not the same as the evil oil lobby control congress.

If one needs additional proof that the “pro-Israel” lobby and the policies it dictates to US policymakers are bad for both the U.S. and Israel, look no further than what is happening in Egypt.

These words have been used to demonize jews in the past.

He could just as easily have said “Jewish cabals play politicians like puppets on a string”

Again, it is the essence of old fashioned anti-Semitism.
