We note that almost every liberal Jewish person we encounter equates the Confederate flag with anti-semitism. When you try to explain the historical truth of the matter they do not even listen. As for Judah P. Benjamin, he fled to the U.K. and became a very successful barrister.

The Confederacy also made Judah P. Benjamin the first Jew since the time of Herod Agrippa I and his grandchildren to have his portrait on money.

Good point, but Herod Agrippa was Idumean, NOT Jewish. :)
