Question

Were any of Tim Russert's ancestors Jewish?

Answer 1

He was portrayed as Irish and is not receiving a Jewish burial.

However, he held an ethnocentrist, Jewish view about all political matters. He believed 911 was the product of 'terrorists' and did much to propagate the Urban Myth that Muslims, flying freely over USAF controlled airspace for 80 minutes, were able to not only crash-land a plane at the Pentagon, but also struck both WTC towers.  

Tim Russert was instrumental in promoting the Iraq war and the official story about weapons of mass destruction. Lately, he was observed promoting the invasion of Iran, due a new nuclear threat. Mr. Russert never admitted these wars could only benefit Israel.

Russert stoutly objected that Israel had anything to do with the 911 attacks. He always portrayed Israel or Jews in a positive light, no matter what the accusation; but it is not known whether he believed the Jewish race to be superior, or whether he was trying to make good with his bosses.

He also claimed, repeatedly, that Jews are not involved in the news media.
