Koch went very public during the campaign to convince American Jews that Hussein was “safe” and was a “friend of Israel”. Meanwhile, there’s video out there of Koch claiming he was “scared to death” of Sarah Palin (yes, the same Sarah Palin with the Israeli flag in her gubernatorial office) because (1) 2 “reputable” sources (NY Times and AP) “corroborated” the charge that she wanted to ban books from the Wasila library (charge that was conclusively debunked) and that (2) she’s not a fan of abortion. I’m an American Jew - one of the few in my family who’s conservative. I truly believe that unfettered access to abortion is the trump card for the Jewish vote. Don’t ask me to explain it, but it’s a non-starter for the majority of my tribesmen if you want to restrict the big A in any way.
As I argue with my family, there’s a reason why we’ve been repeatedly persecuted and slaughtered. There definitely is a suicidal gene in our DNA! Just look at how American Jews are approaching Israel of late. We all know that Israel - for us - serves as a “safety valve” for modern Jews that our grandparents and great-grandparents didn’t have in the 1st half of the 20th century. Yet, we’re all concerned about the “human rights” of the surrounding savages who plot tirelessly to murder Israel’s women and children. And, we vote for “diplomacy” in our own elections - when we know full well that this never works and the end result is certain to be a nuclear Iranian state run by Mahdi-worshipping fanatics who are actively telegraphing their gameplan (get the bomb and eradicate the state of Israel!).

Again, I can’t explain it. I - and my philosophical brethren - do realize that the only force keeping Israel safe is the strong support given her by (primarily evangelical) Christian community in this country.

Look - ObamaKhan is setting the stage for another holocaust. The world needs to destroy Iran’s ability to wage war - and I don’t care about the Russians and Chinese. Frankly - even the Arab world wants Iran destroyed, they are all afraid. Hamas is running around planning the murder of millions of Jews, and Iran sending arms - this has got to stop.

ObamaKhan’s weak leadership is destabilizing the Middle East.

When W Bush left office - Libya had surrendered its nukes, Iraq would no longer pursue them and Iran had none. Had Bush not waged the pre-emptive war, Libya would have become a full fledged nuclear power, Saddam would have clearly re-armed and Iran would be on the brink as it is now. It would be the flash point for WWIII with three freakin nutjobs each with an atomic bomb. That would be the world of Kerry-Gore-MichaelMoore. Bush did the world a huge favor - saving potentially millions of lives - now watch ObamaKhan let these Iranian psychos get the bomb and undo the work. Great leadership!

Thanks for posting that, nuvista. I am an evangelical Christian who loves Israel and the Jewish people and it perplexes me to no end that American Jews (and I suppose Israeli ones, too) will vote against their own best interests in such overwhelming numbers. I get so disgusted with them that I just want to say “to hell with them” at times. But then I read things like you just wrote above and it gives me hope.
I’m afraid things are going to have to get fearfully worse before many will change their voting habits. I’d like to think Ed Koch is a smart man but he sure could use some wising up and it may be too late.

And when that fails...

26 There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, who rideth upon the heaven in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky.

27 The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them.

28 Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew.

29 Happy art thou, O Israel: who is like unto thee, O people saved by the Lord, the shield of thy help, and who is the sword of thy excellency! and thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places.

Deut 33:26-29 (KJV)
