Nonsense. The Dems in Congress remain just as pro-Israel as ever. That is what counts.

Thank you for sharing your peerless wisdom on a column you have obviously not read.

First, I read the article. The author cites votes on resolutions and letters that really have little impact on Israel. In terms of real support, how do the Democrats vote on assistance bills for Israel? What is the role of politics on some of these Dem votes on Israel that are critical of the Administration?

There are 45 Jewish members of Congress--31 in the House and 14 in the Senate. Only one is a Rep Obama's chief of staff is Jewish (who served as a volunteer at an Israeli Army Base during the Gulf War) as well as his chief advisor, Axelrod, and head political operative now back in the WH working on Obama's reelection, David Plouffe.

Has Congress cut assistance for Israel?
