Thanks Olog-hai.

In Die Welt, the EPP's Elmar Brok claims that the US has launched an economic war against Europe. For those who can't read German, here is a rough summary of his argument. The US ratings agencies, he says, had no conceivable reason to downgrade nine eurozone states last week. What this is really about is a political project aimed at advancing 'Anglo-Saxon interests' in Europe. Americans have been becoming increasingly anti-European, as Mitt Romney's campaign shows. (I have no idea either, but that's what he says.) Then again, it's not really their fault, since they've been fed lies by Anglo-Saxon media moguls for decades. ...

Substitute "the Jews" or "Zionist/Zionism" for US or Anglo-Saxon, and this is right in line with European traditions.

I'd say they lump them all in together at this point. Their rhetoric targets Anglo-Saxon and Jew "Zionist" alike after all.
