I was reading a cracked article, and came across these interesting quotes:
..."dwarves are not heroes, but calculating folk with a great idea of the value of money; some are tricky and treacherous and pretty bad lots..." from The Hobbit.
and then, from the author:
"The dwarves of course are quite obviously - wouldn't you say that in many ways they remind you of the jews? Their words are Semitic obviously, constructed to be Semitic."
So now we now...Tolkien's dwarves are mocking jews.
