A regular source of bigotry, extremist Web sites also contained anti-Semitic comments about the Bernard Madoff scandal:

• An article from Judicial Inc., a virulently anti-Semitic Web site, described Madoff's acts as a "Zio-Ponzi scheme" and implied that the stolen money was sent to Israel. It also alleged that the people ripped off my Madoff were non-Jews and that Madoff's eventual trial will be overseen by a "Zionist judge" who will prevent him from going to prison.

•  "Kentuckyanna True News," an anti-Semitic blog to which neo-Nazi figure Will Williams contributes, featured a comment from an individual calling himself Hawthorne, who said, "A good by-product of this... The parasitical nature of the jew is here for all to see. They will even prey on their own."

• On Stormfront, the largest and most popular white supremacist Internet forum a member named Blueearth wrote:

This is the jew in his natural environment, his modus operandi. I was reading earlier that, healthcare accounts for a huge percentage of our economy…The jews have controlled our science and our medicine for long enough. Just think if there was no profit to be made from medicine. I am sure cures have been found many times for certain diseases but, there is no profit in cure, only in long drawn out lengthy lifetime medication and therapy.:mad: The jew is malevolent to the core.

• Former Klan leader Don Black, who operates the Stormfront forum, co-hosts an Internet radio program with well-known anti-Semite and white supremacist David Duke. During a December 15, 2008, program, Duke discussed "these insider Jews;" Don Black viewed the scandal as the catalyst that will make others realize "who's behind a lot of these problems." He explained:

That's pretty much the psychology is that whatever's good for Jews is all we have to worry about…It think a lot of people will be waking up as to who's really behind all of these problems, so it's up to us to understand that they ensure the full truth and what's really going on, so that's the purpose of programs like this…We are reaching more people and it's up to all of us to ensure that we continue to reach more people with our message and the truth behind what's really going on…they're looking for answers, so it's up to us to provide them for them.

• On the neo-Nazi Vanguard News Network (VNN) forum, a Virginia-based anti-Semite using the name N.B. Forrest stated, "If ever there were an ideal poster boychick for Big Kike financial thieves, this beady-eyed, plantain-snouted coin clipper is IT, jack."

• Also on the VNN forum, a New York-based individual called Gman  wrote of Madoff:

This satan's whelp jew is no doubt typical of jews that run all the money in this country and around the world!! The level of jew complicity in our current financial situation is probably 100%!! Such evil bastards, all of them and this jew is a perfect example of that!! ….I would guess that it was his fellow jew parasites who were fleecing white clients of his filthy jew firm! If one studies the history of the jew, one will see how this race of vagabond parasites takes over a host and bleeds it dry as we are now being bleed dry! The jew becomes so intertangled with the host that the host does not even know it is being bled dry by the jew parasite!

• Western Voices World News, the news Web site of the white supremacist European Americans United group, posted an article entitled "Zionist Financier Busted in Ponzi Scheme." The article states that "there is no denying that some ethnic Jews have played a disproportionate role in the events leading to the financial crisis…"

• In the neo-Nazi National Alliance's forum, NorseViking commented on the ability of anti-Semites to exploit the incident to spread their views. He wrote: "Lets [sic] just hope we see a lot more of this."
