Get a load of this. Note how deftly Will avoids addressing the actual issue at hand.

I think I know as much as most people about classic right-wing antisemitic conspiracy theories. They occasionally refer to Jewish cabals that go back many centuries, usually claiming that Freemasonry is a Jewish concept and Jewish-dominated organisation. However, it's pretty unusual to drag in the Queen beyond pointing out that her ex-brother-in-law Lord Snowdon had a Jewish grandfather. That's very much a LaRouche specialty.

It is? Please provide a Reliable Source for that. I've read as much LaRouche as the next fellow, and I've never seen any mention of that.

Also note Berlet's rationale for the assertion about the "classic antisemitic conspiracy" yadda yadda yadda yadda. It is based entirely on this quote from LaRouche:
QUOTE
The Federal Reserve System, which was introduced to the U.S.A. from London, by Cassell's New York agent Jacob Schiff, has been intended to function, increasingly, as a disguise for that European style in central banking which was introduced to the Netherlands and England as an Anglo-Dutch clone of the Venice model of a financier-controlled imperial maritime power.
I have to marvel at Chip's acute perceptive power here. It's as if some of Virginia Slim's Finely Honed Linguistic Analytic Skills™ had rubbed off on him.

If that's not good enough, I have a newspaper reference somewhere that I think I cited once on WR.

That's not what I was asking about, Guy. You appear to have selectively edited your own comment. LaRouche attacks QEII all the time. In fact, he has compared her state of mind to that of Richard III. I was asking for a source regarding your full quote, which implies that LaRouche somehow ties her in to some sort of Jewish conspiracy. Allow me to refresh your memory:
