Category: Political Jokes - in former USSR SMALL DISADVANTAGE

The post of the Chief Rabbi at the Great Moscow Synagogue became vacant. The ruling Communist Party always maintained that there is freedom of religion in the USSR and the synagogue in the capital was a showcase to prove it. Therefore, the chief rabbi had to be a reliable person. Brezhnev ordered the KGB Chief to find for the job a man who was both a good Communist and well-versed in Jewish theology. After a few days the Chief reported that he had found someone, who is a loyal Communist Party member, however Jewish religious knowledge is not one of his strong points. Brezhnev rejected the candidate and repeated that someone with both qualifications must be found. Another week had passed and the KGB Chief came up with another contestant:

“He is well qualified in Jewish religious matters, however he is not a very good Communist.”

This candidate too was not accepted and Brezhnev charged the KGB man to go on looking for someone equally strong in both categories. Not long afterwards, the Chief informed his boss that at last he has located someone who is both a long-standing and faithful member of the Party and a real expert on anything that is Jewish.

“He has a handicap though” - remarked the KGB functionary.

“And what is that?” - demanded Brezhnev.

“He is Jewish!”
