    Back when I lived in Norway, there was a song called "Hvis jeg var en rik mann" ("If I were a rich man".) Exact same song, except translated from Yiddish to Norwegian and without the Rothschild references.
    It's very interesting to learn the origin. And I'm enjoying how much of this song I can understand (I do speak German, but not Yiddish.)

      Yiddish is derived from German if that helps.

      I'm playing this show right now and the dialogue at the beginning is over a 3 measure repeat of 2/4. Because the pattern repeats strongly every 6 beats it comes out sounding a little off until the singing.

      Ich glaub du verstehst halt einfach den Text nicht.
      Das Lied geht über einen armen Juden, der träumt was er machen würde, wenn er reich wäre.er beginnt auch mit "der liebe G*tt hat eine Welt voller armer Menschen gemacht"
      Aber viele Antisemiten verstehen nur "Rothschild" und glauben, "ja das bestätigt meine hetzerischen Gedanken".

      @Defeating Germany Destroyed our future He wasn't Jewish at all. He was notorious antisemite, but he hoped to influence Israel and fight Brits, who at the time supported Arabs , as at the 1948 Israel was in the hands of Jewish socialists and communists. But unfortunately to Stalin , Ben Gurion decided to go western democracy way. Contrary to ARAB states who decided to go socialist / national - socialist way ( BAAS party in Syria, Iraq etc). So when Stalin understood , that he will not have communist banana republic in Israel. He turned against Jews and Israel. Started with killing Jewish intelligentsia in URSS , then Kremlin doctors and weapon supplies to Arab countries.
