The Jew Did It - A Widely Accepted Conspiracy Theory

Recently, was discussing 9/11 Conspiracy Theories with someone, who commented that they had heard some people claim that "the Jew did it". Not Jews. Jew. Singular.

I began wondering who this awesome all-powerful, mysterious Super-Jew could be. Perhaps this was the entity behind the prevalent Jewish conspiracy theory - the claim that they were behind all things. Silverstein? Didn't make sense; he seemed to be more of a minion of this Super-Jew.

Then it struck me.

Jesus.

Jesus is "The Jew".

It all makes sense. Jesus is behind everything. Jesus caused the Gulf of Tonkin. Jesus attacked the USS Liberty. Jesus bombed Pearl Harbor. And yes, Jesus destroyed the World Trade Center.

What immediately struck me, the horror of it, the pure futile-ness of it, is that so many people believe this conspiracy theory.

If we accept that Jesus and God are one in the same, and further, if we accept (as we must), that the Judeo-Christian God is also the Islamic God, that means a whopping 3.8 billion people believe this conspiracy!

Debunk that!

That's just what The JewTM wants you to think.

Why would god want us to believe there is no god? Besides, I'm a Jew and I called god yesterday on the jewphone and he told me he didn't exist.

That's weird. I can't recall receiving any phone call yesterday. Are you sure you had the correct number?

I'm pretty sure they mean this Jew. Either that or Maggie Gyllenhaal.

I knew you people had a hotline--how else does Steven Spielberg get reality to conform to his movies?

I'd love her a whole lot more if I could pronounce - or spell - her damn name.

So what you are suggesting Gumboot, is that all Conspiracies are an Act of God?

Oh, that's easy.

Pronunciation (phonetically): Jill-en-hall
Spelling (mnemonic): think 'Gillian Hall' for the spelling, and anchor the replacement of the appropriate letters to get Gyllenhaal. Any simple mnemonic device will do.

Yes you'll find that singularis form, intended to denote a collective, in general within seasoned forums of various right (and left) criticism on jews and/or jewry.

You know it is easy to see that those people are anti-semites. The accuse the joo Boris Berezovsky of trying to brign down Vladimir Putin, trying to make another Russian revolution. The joos are trying to get Putin? The how come Vladimir Putins best friend Roman Abramovich is a joo? Oh yeah and Noam Chomsky is a joo.

And as another example, I propose Metamars obssesion with the idea of those Joos plotting to attack the US and blame it on Iran. Someone has some "issues" with the Jews, methinks.

I'm proposing that monotheistic religion can be perceived as the archetypal "Protocols of Zion/NWO" Conspiracy Theory, if you give it a political rather than religious approach.

I just thought it was interesting.
