Obama's national security adviser better be joking

The Jewish people have been the escape goat for blame for many centuries.
In the past century, the Jews have been to blame for the down economies of the Soviet Union and Germany. In each case, the governments said the Jews kept their wealth and deprived others of their wealth. (The Jews were the bankers, jewelry store owners, etc...)

This brings us to April 21, last Wednesday. General James Jones (Ret.), President Barack Obama's National Security Adviser, told a joke depicting the Jews as greedy merchants.
