And that's exactly where you're wrong, because Easterbrook didn't
say anything close to that.

He said that Eisner is a greedy money-grubber who HAPPENS to be
Jewish, *not* that is a a greedy money-grubber BECAUSE he is
Jewish.

The Jewish-specificity came in when Easterbrook said that given how
Jews have historically been outsized targets of violence that perhaps
a Jewish exec should have qualms about bankrolling a film glorifying
violence (with the unstated implication that something which serves to
make society intrinsically more violent is disproportionally bad for
Jewish people because Jewish people have disproportionately been
targets of violence).
