The bug itself is being able to move animals from the caravan cages into your own without buying them.  This allows you to steal everything from a caravan quite easily.

Create a caje.
Place the cage.
When the caravan arrives assign all of its animals to that caje.
Once they are in there remove the caje building.
Trade your very full caje for an empty and some stuff.
Then repeat.

As a secondary to this, at certain times the caravan's animals can appear in the Animals page of the overall status screen.  This allows you to specify them for slaughter.

So, what is so strange about creating "The Coalition for the Advancement of Jewish Education?"

Yes, it's really easy to steal from the caravan.  Heck, there's a button right on the trade interface that lets you steal anyway!  This way has the advantage that you don't have to deal with the guards, but it's still noted as stealing.  Caravans consider themselves victims of theft when the leave the map with less value than they entered.  Steal enough, and you'll have a siege at your gates soon.

So it's not as big a problem as it looks.  Probably still unexpected behavior though.
