Important as court Jews were also Samuel Oppenheimer, who went from Heidelberg to Vienna, and Samson Wertheimer (Wertheimher) from Worms.

Â To My Former Dean and Other 'Court Jews' (by Josh Ruebner) - Media Monitors Network

This doesn’t mean that the "court Jews" of the unelected Jewish Establishment haven’t been hawking for this war.
Take a few "court Jews" and give them unimpeded access to the mainstream media and, voila, you create the impression among the masses that "the Jews" are spoiling for a war.
For the sake of your own dignity, you must refuse to be exploited as the "court Jew." Step down and deprive the power structure of its "court Jew" and you will expose to the world the actors who really motivate the Bush Administration.

As historian Selma Stern points out in her classic 1950 work, The Court Jew, these powerful historical figures often interceded politically as so-called shtadlanim (intercessors) to gain rights and privileges for the Jewish community.
If the original Hofjuden or court Jews of 17th- and 18th-century Europe were sometimes embarrassed by their Hebraic blood, it was because they entirely lacked the civil rights that we take for granted.

Republicans have seized on the assertion of Rep. James P. Moran (D-Va.) that Jews are determining American policy toward Iraq as a new weapon in the GOP's long-term effort to attract traditionally Democratic Jewish voters and donors.
Cantor said Moran's comments were "reminiscent of the accusations contained in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion," a notorious Czarist forgery that fomented pogroms against Jews in 19th-century Russia.
For Republican strategists, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the war on terrorism and the prospect of war with Iraq have been key to building an alliance with Jews.
