Your perplexity is understandable, since it is indeed hard to believe that Jews tell the truth from time to time. But they do. And, for thousands of years at least (read their own writings in the so-called "Old Testament") they have set themselves up as a hyper-privileged, extremely powerful, yet supposedly "persecuted" minority in whatever country they have penetrated, uniquely privileged to control the country's leaders, to continually shave off a percentage of the people's wealth, and to commit bloody atrocities with impunity -- while simultaneously making it a life-ruining "crime" to even mildly criticize them. Since they as a group have been doing that for millennia, to claim that they are recent "imposters" seems preposterous to me.

None of this means that there aren't some Jews who don't possess this mentality (they are a mixed race, after all, and genes reshuffle randomly), and some even see it and deplore it, and a few even oppose it. Such people definitely exist. (Benjamin Harrison Freedman was an example.) Nevertheless, they are a powerless minority.
