Slightly of topic, but here is a question:

All threw history the Jewish people has been burdened with a somewhat less favorable reputation.

Some people claim - without being antisemitic per se - that the root lies within their own holy texts claiming the Jews are the chosen ones - a higher, better bread. A self rightness putting them selves above other people. A relevant ground for hatred in many peoples eyes.

Others just point out them being too slick for their own good.

Is there any truth in this or is it just traditional slandering ?
