Obama's National Security Adviser Told A Joke At A Banquet . . . Is It Anti-Semitic?

Retired Marine Corps General Jim Jones is the U.S. National Security Adviser. Last week, he was giving a speech at the Washington Institute For Near East Policy and opened with a joke about a Jewish merchant and a member of the Taliban.

--Some people are spinning the joke as ANTI-SEMITIC because it plays off the stereotype of the greedy Jewish merchant. Jones has apologized for making it. But are people just being over-sensitive?
