Not really, the whole reason behind this concept is because of what provoked Hitler to start the war.

That being that the Jews owned most of the banks and wealth in the European states and did not allow Hitler to draw money from in cause of his war.

Generally speaking though, I would agree that the thought is un-evolved.

:eek:
Well actually the Europeans hated Jews well before Hitler.

I strongly encourage you to read more history, as this is simply not the case. All such stereotypes, slanders, canards, and slurs are fabrications of anti-Semitic propaganda, which was common in pre-war Europe. You might also wish to read some works on the history of anti-Semitism, which can trace the thread of such inventions through European history for you.

Stereotypes of this nature are extremely damaging, and I am sure you will want to learn more, so as to avoid them in the future.

Definitely not! European artists, who of course had not seen Jesus nor other races, potrayed Him as white. Japanese and Africans have also illustrated Him to resemble themselves.
