If the Jews run the United States government, then they are doing a really bad job. That is a very true statement and witty too.
Last night I debunked the myths around Israel, AIPAC, and Islam.

If Israel controls America, they're doing a really, really bad job.

There is only one statement that was once upon a time true that is often parroted – “The Jews run Hollywood.” That indeed was true in the early part of the 20th century. That is because the creators of the major Hollywood firms were largely Jewish. But their Judaism meant very little to them. Actually, most of the creators of the first major Hollywood studios were running away from any aspect of their Judaism.
The habit of saying, “The Italians….” or “The Black people….” or ” The Puerto Ricans….” or “The Jews…” invariably means that one should brace themselves for a major exaggeration or racial stereotype that is overstating a false reality. Yes, there are many Jewish accountants, but the Jews do not run the major accountant firms. There are many Italian policemen, but the police are not run by Italians. Many of the best athletes are black. That does not mean that sports are dominated by Black people.
For whatever good or bad reasons, there are many Jews in the United States of America in senior positions. But to indicate that somehow, they are all united in a cabal that meet and work together to dominate or run American foreign policy is a complete fabrication that is laughable. Most Jews in the United States are unfortunately not very committed to their Judaism or even to the State of Israel. A minority is and they are known for not agreeing about nearly anything with each other.
To make believe that somehow Jewish people in the United States coordinate on some strategy together is pure paranoia.
