Glenn Beck Embraces His Yiddishkeit With Open Arms
Published March 09, 2011, issue of March 18, 2011.

Following the recent revelations that Glenn Beck (born Beckershteyn) shares the Jewish genetic marker, the Cohen Modal haplotype, he has been brushing up on his Yiddish and planning his holidays. Later this year he will be making the pilgrimage to Uman, and in his backpack will be an early draft of Eric Yoffie’s autobiograpy that he’s promised to blurb.
Talking to the Backward over coffee in San Francisco’s Mission District, Beck fiddled nervously with a red kabbalah thread around his wrist. “I guess I’d always had doubts,” he mumbled. “But it seemed simplest to ignore the Friday night candles, pretend I was Christian, and embark on a career of media demagoguery.”

Whaaaaaaat!?

[Songbird]

Wish wash! Wow!!!!! Can;t wait to see the development for this story...I wonder how many devotees will follow?

[durangout]

Ha! That proves it. He's been on the "inside" the whole time. He's one of them Jews trying to run the world. What fools we've been.

[kathyn]

I am sure Beck's tongue was planted firmly in his cheek when he said that.

[Rand]

I have no clue. I can't find anything else on it. Who knows.

Really? Are we certain that it's a kabbalah bracelet? I've noticed that he does wear some sort of bracelet. I always thought it was some kind of "zero energy" thing to help him with his failing health.

Glenn? no... I don't belive this without any REAL sources. This could be made up by anyone. He is LDS.

[chrisa18]

If he is in fact Jewish, He's a contradictory liar in all aspects. He always talks about Jesus. If this is true, I don't know what to say. I watch his tv program daily.

More like the Lemon, but I think you must be right. Made me pucker a little. But then again, stranger things have and will happen.

I checked out the source website of the link to the article and it looks legit. Nothing like the onion that I could see. What did you think when you checked the site out for yourself?

The site is not spoof, but the 'backward' feature is:

Backward: A Purim Spoof

In our annual issue of Backward, Natalie Portman, left, answers readers questions on Jewish parenting, Glenn Beck embraces Yiddishkeit and a commission calls for the numerical value of chai to be raised to 25 to stimulate the economy.Read More

Headlines for Backward include "Moses Calls for Global Support of Pharaoh: Israelites Proud of the Work They Did Erecting the Cities of Pithom and Ramses"; the photo below it is captioned "The leaders of the Israelite tribe are publicly supporting the regime of the Egyptian Pharaoh, despite ongoing protests and their own recent conflicts with the Middle Eastern despot."

If Beck had converted to Judaism don't you think that every Beck hater in the Christian community would have jumped all over this pronouncement to discredit the man every which way but loose by now? Beck has tried to embrace and include those in the Jewish community in what he is trying to accomplish. That doesn't mean he has denounced Christianity and has converted to Judaism. Come on guys think it through..

[kingbmm]

I'm not buying it....He's as Christian as they come....He's simply discovering the many parallels between the Mormonism & Judaism.

Perfect example of why many people discount conspiracies and marginalize those who proclaim them. 8-|

I find it scary that anyone would take this seriously.

Hahahahah Just the Protocols of the Elders of Zion predicted--it's all a Jewish plot to subvert Mormons.
