3. something for everyone
Muslim theocrats blame the Jews for liberalism.
Liberals blame them for neoconservatism.

Fundamentalists blame the Jews for secularism.
Atheists fault them for wearing religion on their sleeve.

The Caliphate blamed the Jews for lack of assimilation.
Germans blamed them for assimilating too well.

It almost seems like the purpose of Judaism is to be a lightning rod for "otherness".

Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics
And the Catholics hate the Protestants,
And the Hindus hate the Moslems,
And everybody hates the Jews.

- Tom Lehrer, "National Brotherhood Week"
