The truth hurts liberals.

To be honest I've always wondered about this myself. Why are there so many Jews that seem to support the same ideology that loathes them?

I asked my Israeli friend about this, and he explained that Jews feel that Democrats are charitable, perhaps the same way Catholics do.

The difference is that Catholics' existence isn't being threatened.

Maybe it's denial? Maybe Carter's true colors coming out will be a little wake up call.

Some of the most anti-Semitic, anti-Israel people I know are liberal/secular Jews.

Hmmm...

Religionists will always find an excuse to hate Jews for some religious reason. Secularists will always find an excuse to hate Jews for some secular reason. The confused who are part religious and part secular will find excuses for Jew-hate from both parts.

Most 'analyses' are just political or religious posturing.

Every year at Passover the Jews speak of the four sons at the table: the wise son, the simple son who is indifferent and unconcerned, the young son who doesn't even know what to ask but who is open and receptive; then there is the wicked son, so-called because he wants no parts of the tradition that the others are practicing, and denigrates or derides the traditions and those who practice them. These authors who fuel the fires of Jew hatred are the wicked sons and daughters.

This is news? Or a surprise? Michael Lerner and Noam Chomsky are self hating Jews. Why aren't they in the article?

[stockpirate]

Liberal Jews embrace the same philosophy as the NAZI's in Germany, "Socialialism".

I realize this post may get deleted.

"...An essay the committee features on its Web site, ajc.org, titled “ ‘Progressive’ Jewish Thought and the New Anti-Semitism,” says a number of Jews, through their speaking and writing, are feeding a rise in virulent anti-Semitism by questioning whether Israel should even exist..."

Yes, that is a problem for American Jews, but even worse the antagonism towards Israel provides a ready excuse for we gentiles to abandon a foreign policy supportive of Israel. To be sure, 87% of nonobservant Jews vote DemocRAT, but they are only 2.5-5% of the population. The big danger is the other 95% of the population who see this and wonder why should I support Israel.

IMHO we are only an election or two away from a radical abandonment of Israel unless we can turn public opinion around. This especially includes the nonobservant Jews.

Always lurking in the background is why Israel and Jews are hated--not for their failures but for their successes. Observant Christians know the second deadly sin is envy and the object of envy is to destroy the envied object. Anything that gives caving in to envy credence permits its full flowering in a deadly determination that will make the Jihadists smile.

It is not too late but it is getting near evening.

This is a great piece. Rosenfeld is calling out the anti-semites, and they don't like it one bit.

Why the left is so committed to hating Israel is more than I can fathom...from Code Pink and Cindy Sheehan to Jimmy Carter, and liberal Jews...it's a strange, hateful community.

The anti-Israel Jewish Left are those I would collectively describe as Jews For A Second Holocaust. These kooks are only exceeded in their loathing for the Jewish State by the kooks of the Naturei Karta.

They put this in the "Arts" section??

BTTT where it should be.

[Zionist Conspirator]

On seeing the headline I assumed the article was about liberal Jews like Abe Foxman.

I think that "proud" Jewish liberals do a great deal of damage, but so do the people targeted in this article, so 'sall good.
