It’s easy to forget that Israeli Jews are nothing like the liberal Jews here in America:

Dianne Feinstein, Bernie Sanders, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, etc...

...
By the way, the majority of Israeli Jews are conservative.

Not exactly correct but more correct than saying “all Jews vote Democrat”
Israeli politics is very complex and voting blocks tend to change depending on who is shooting at them.

The movie “Exodus” and “Raid on Entebbe” gave a somewhat accurate portrait of Israel Jews.
They argue intensely with heart and logic to move the gauge in a particular direction one way or the other.

Then when the decision is made, they mostly move united together.

This can be a good thing or a bad thing.
It was good in ‘68 but in ‘73 the prevailing thought was more on stability which left them standing flat footed during the ‘73 war.

Only Nixon’s intervention in re-supplying Israel kept them from falling to an Arab 2nd attack.

“It’s easy to forget that Israeli Jews are nothing like the liberal Jews here in America:”

Well, It's not easy for me to forget that US Jews have, in the main, forsaken Judaism’s tenets for Progressivism/Marxism/Communism. While we are pressing the “good Muslims” to “out their brothers" who espouse Jihad, so too should we expect to see observant, conservative Jews to start making a stink about those of their number who have fallen away from Judaism and taken up trying to destroy this country! JINOs are a disgrace to their heritage and this country. Israeli Jews are stalwarts in real conservatism, and this country, under Obola, has $hit on them!
