A MARVELOUS QUOTATION BY ALBERT EINSTEIN

When Paul Newman died, the news reports said how great he was but they failed to mention that one parent was Jewish.

When the woman who helped Nelson Mandela (Helen Suzman) died recently, they said how great she was, but they failed to mention she was Jewish.

On the other side of the equation, when Ivan Boesky or Andrew Fastow or Bernie Madoff committed fraud, almost every article mentioned they were Jewish.

However, when Ken Lay, Charles Ponzi, Nick Leeson, Alves dos Reis, Ramon Baez Figueroa, Graham Halksworth, Sheridan Cox, Bernard Ebbers, Jerome Kerviel, Jeff Skilling, Martha Stewart, Randy Cunningham, Gov. John Edwards, Conrad Black, Senator Keating, Gov Ryan, Gov Patterson, President Nixon, President Clinton and Gov Blagojevich messed up; no one reported their religion or denomination -- they were not Jewish. (the first 9 on this list make up the rest of the 10 biggest frauds in history)

This is a reminder of a famous Einstein quote:
In 1921, Albert Einstein presented a paper on his then-infant Theory of Relativity at the Sorbonne, the prestigious French university. "If I am proved correct," he said, "the Germans will call me a German, the Swiss will call me a Swiss citizen, and the French will call me a great scientist.

"If relativity is proved wrong, the French will call me a Swiss, the Swiss will call me a German, and the Germans will call me a Jew".
