"Jews are always a convenient scapegoat in times of crisis..." ROFLMAO!! Priceless.

Remember in Casino Royale when that financier lost 100MM of the African rebel militia's funds shorting airline stock, and the guys almost cut off his hand? Who's going to step up when someone loses 50 billion?

3 Wrong logic. If the stereotype is the 'sneaky Jew that will screw anyone for a dime', Madoff fits it to a T. The fact that he hosed fellow Jews (who trusted him because he was Jewish) makes him even more traitorous. The Skinheads must be loving this.

"Jews are always a convenient scapegoat in times of crisis, but the Madoff scandal and the fact that so many of the defrauded investors are Jewish has created a perfect storm for the anti-Semites." Wait. I don't get it. Madoff is Jewish and most of his victims were Jewish. How does that create anti-semitism? If anything that just creates schadenfreude. If most of his victims were goyims, then I can understand the anti-semitism. Am I on the wrong path to try to even attempt to understand the logic of anti-semitis?

If I were him, I'd be real careful of sitting in front of an open window.
