纵观历史，反犹分子一个常见的套路就是把任何社会弊病都归咎于犹太人。纳粹当年就以犹太人为替罪羊，为20世纪20年代德国的恶性通货膨胀开脱。如今，这一套路又在美国重现：一个左翼团体为密歇根州民主党参议员候选人阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德制作的新广告，将食品杂货价格高企归咎于美国对以色列的支持。
A common theme of antisemites throughout history is to blame the Jews for any and every social ill. The Nazis famously scapegoated them for Germany’s hyperinflation during the 1920s. And now this trope has reappeared in America, with a new ad by a leftwing group for Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed that blames grocery prices on U.S. support for Israel.
广告中，一对夫妇在超市里为高昂的价格而苦恼。妻子对丈夫说，“你得把那些鸡蛋放回去”，因为“我们得把那7美元省下来用于杀害巴勒斯坦人”。丈夫回答说：“什么？我们不是每年都给以色列40亿美元吗？”妻子反驳道：“是啊，现在又给了他们260亿美元”，因为“显然，向加沙投掷炸弹让我们花了很多钱”。
The ad features a couple agonizing over high prices at a supermarket. The wife tells her husband that “you’re going to have to put those eggs back” because “we have to set that $7 aside for killing Palestinians.”The husband replies: “What? Don't we give Israel $4 billion a year anyway?”His wife rejoins, “Yeah, and now we’re giving them another $26 billion,” because “apparently it’s costing us a lot of money to drop bombs on Gaza.”
