And the Pretzel Bakers

Found this wonderful story on Tony Price’s blog:

A Nazi SS trooper accosts an old rabbi, points a gun at his head, and demands, “”Tell me, who’s to blame for all the world’s troubles?””

The old rabbi knows the right answer, and trembling he admits, “”The Jews.””

The SS man smiles and nods.

“”And the pretzel bakers,”” adds the rabbi.

“”Why the pretzel bakers?”” demands the Nazi.

“”Why the Jews?””
