Pat Robertson: Jews Don’t Fix Cars; They Polish Diamonds
Not that there’s anything anti-Semitic about that. Robertson was talking with far-right Rabbi Daniel Lapin and wondering why Jews make so much money.
Robertson introduced Lapin by asking: “What is it about Jewish people that make them prosper financially? You almost never find Jews tinkering with their cars on the weekends or mowing their lawns. That’s what Daniel Lapin says and there’s a very good reason for that, and it lies within the business secrets of the Bible.”
Later in the interview, Robertson said that Jews are “polishing diamonds, not fixing cars.”
