        I don't think it's anti Semitic - the issue seems to be in the context . How did this start ?

        as I remember it he was explaining why JC was struggling. He spent the rest of the speech defending the ambassador comment.

        yeh I can see it now - I'm glad I was far away. It's not great but it's not anti Semitic.
