Anti-Semitic conspiracy theorists weighed-in on the Bernard Madoff scandal:

• An article by Christopher Bollyn, an anti-Semitic conspiracy theorist, alleged that lost money from Bernard Madoff's failed scheme was funneled to Israel. He argued this was in keeping with long-standing Jewish financial practices, taught in the Talmud, that aim to "cheat the 'goyim'… and steal their money." Bollyn wrote that "all of the key players in the current financial crisis are Zionist Jews from a very small political/ethnic community in New York City." He also alleged that: "Indoctrinated by the Zionist-controlled mass media, most Americans are simply unaware that all of the key players in 9-11 and the current financial crisis come from a very small club, i.e. the Zionist Jewish criminal gang in the United States and their comrades in Israel."

• A Web site run by anti-Semitic conspiracy theorist Jeff Rense, featured an article authored by Henry Makow, another anti-Semitic conspiracy theorist and columnist for the Toronto-based Street News. In his article, Makow discussed the Madoff scheme and asked "whether there is some flaw in Jewish culture that makes so many Jews sacrifice personal integrity for financial success and power."
