US financial crisis causes spike in online anti-Semitism

The US financial crisis has provoked an outpouring of anti-Semitism on the Internet, with Jews being blamed for the debacle on Wall Street, a monitoring group said on Thursday.
  • "The age-old canards about Jews and money are always just beneath the surface," said Abraham Foxman, the national director of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), which fights anti-semitism.
Mr. Foxman, you can fool all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. Do you really think all of the American people are blind?
