Ok, I'm going to say it. A lot of my fellow progressives are anti-semitic. They always say they are just anti-Israeli/pro-Palestinian, but if you scratch below the surface you often find the typical anti-semitic crap - Jews have too much power, Jews should go back where they came from, etc. Suddenly the Israeli government becomes 'the Jews.'
Anti-semitism never goes out of style I'm afraid. And in this case, your plumber is right.
