An anti-Semitic cartoon posted on Facebook by far-right Austrian politician Heinz-Christian Strache has ignited criticism and anger from the Jewish community and politicians.

The cartoon features a caricature of a banker with a hooked nose and Star of David cufflinks, and has been likened to propaganda used by Nazis in the 1930s by Austrian Jewish leader Oskar Deutsch

While it is offensive, I've had enough of people being politically correct. Let Osterreich be anti-semitic.

What is in that caricature anti-semitic?
I see there written "die banken" and "die regierung" - lol - does that means jew in german and I do not know?
(from what I knew "die banken" means "the banks" and "die regierung" means "the government.)
