Question Hi,
My question is: are the Rockefellers (the bankers in the US) jewish?
Thank you.
Answer No, this belief stems largely from an article spread in "Christian" circles by Richard Darcy, Jr. entitled "Rockefeller's Jewish Ancestory!"
He references Stephen Birmingham's book "The Grandees" in which the author stated the Rockefellers, and other elite American families, were surprised to learn of their Sephardic ancestry. The fact is that as early as 1904 Silas Hubbard self-published a book exposing John D. Rockefeller's various frauds, citing his "Sunday church-going/ Bible-carrying" behavior, and alternatively his Monday through Friday criminality.
The early Rockefellers (1800s) were in business with the banking Rothschilds, and therefore in some circles, have been considered to be Jewish because that association (that and the passage of time).
