Here's Adam Horowitz on Huffpo, leaping off from the fact that a Connecticut rabbi wants to excommunicate Bernie Madoff for his damage to the Jews. Ok. But where's the soul searching over Gaza? The occupation? The neocons?

The ADL has a statement that it's anti-Semitic to say that any of Madoff's funds were channeled to Israel. Yet if no one knows what Bernie did with the money, how do they know he didn't? If it proves to be the case, does anyone expect Israel to return any of it?
Phil's in to rhetorical questions, it seems. Madoff screwed his own people. Those other areas of discontent, Gaza, the occupation, the neocons–the victims in those cases are mostly non-jews, that is, cattle.
Bernie screwed a lot more than his own people. Yet apparently it only becomes a concern when some of his victims are chosenites.
