Israeli Ambassador to the United States Ron Dermer said he looks forward to working with the entire Trump administration on strengthening the US-Israel alliance, after meeting Thursday with the president-elect at Trump Tower in New York City.

“Israel has no doubt that President-elect Trump is a true friend of Israel,” Dermer told reporters after the meeting.

He also said that Vice President-elect Michael Pence “was one of Israel’s greatest friends in the Congress, one of the most pro-Israel governors in the country.”

Dermer added that he hopes to work closely with Steve Bannon, who has been named Trump’s chief strategist, a role equal to that of chief of staff.

people are now seeing thru the Democrat lies; also, fellow Republicans, don't get down on thinking Jews in America will always vote Democrat; they used to vote Liberal in Canada and now vote Tory, in the UK they used to vote Labour, and now go Tory bigly. Its only a matter of time with an anti-Semitic Muslim Keith Ellison in charge, self-hating Bernie Sanders bending over backwards to please anti-Semites, and real Jews running. Also, watch the Muslims and anti-Semite leftists eat Schumer; its sad watching him try to placate them with Ellison and Sanders. To Schumer's credit, he did oppose the Iran Scam.

I so look forward to the meltdown when Trump tries to move the Embassy

I said, in these pages back in 2010, when Obama tried to implement his leftist, pro-Muslim agenda against Israel - Netanyahu should just ignore him. Obama’s an ideologue, but he also is a weakling with no sense of right and wrong, so there are no consequences to ignoring him. And in time, things would change.

I was proven right.

This is the most pro- Israel administration since the creation of the Jewish state in 1948
the Embassy relocation act has been on the books for 21 years its just a matter of not giving it six month reprieves and moving it to Jerusalem the eternal undivided Capitol of Israel.

Jews are often extremely advanced, adept at science, technology, medicine, arts, music, almost everything.
It is mostly just in politics that many Jews suffer retardation.
BUT it is, I think, unrealistic to expect those Jews who have been supporting hostile/leftist politicians...to continue to do so indefinitely. The Obama regime’s anti-Christian/anti-Jewish record is beginning, at long last admittedly, to sink into the minds of at least some of these reflexively-leftist Jews. They’re beginning to realize they’ve been on the wrong track (or rather, that their leftist-leaning train’s been hijacked by the enemy...so that they’re stupid to keep supporting or riding it.

They learn (about politics, anyway) very slowly. All too slowly. But some of them ARE beginning to figure out (the obvious)... and are showing interest in Republican alternatives

If the D party bosses put somebody as obviously hostile as Ellison in charge, many more D party supporters will wake up

He had nothing nice to say about Reince?

with Jews, I think the Democratic Party has done well mainly because the WWII generation of Jews identified the GOP with Lindbergh and yea, Jews were once more ethnic outsiders in society than other whites, so they felt bad for other racial outsiders. That sent ‘em the Democrats’ way. Their kids listened, but the Millennial Jews are now far away enough from grandma’s stories that they can look at it differently. Plus, unlike the blacks and hispanics, Jews work hard and face adversity. Sure, some whine about it, but that’s been fading and doing so hard.

Oh yea, the younger generation is a different story; Greitens, Kutsoff, Zeldin’s back. And these are REAL conservatives, not of the Eric Cantor variety.

Nixon strongly supported Israel

Dennis Prater has been trying to hurry up the Political Maturation of the Jewish voters (it is happening, but slowly)

for instance, this new article...

(the end line.... he’s asking the leftist supporters to stop sitting shiva (mourning) and start doing tshevuah (repenting and correcting their ways ...)

I’m Jewish, and one of the select of that group that does not suffer political retardation, or worship the false “god” of Leftism. I’ve long pondered why the pattern that you mentioned is reflective of reality, without any other answer than that one or several of my ancestors must have made some kind of Faustian bargain for all of those smarts, but the comeuppance was being as dumb as a box of rocks regarding matters of politics. Seriously, I cannot understand it in any other way.

The Israelis are mostly different - and that’s because of necessity. They face the consequences of such stupidity if it is exercised, with their own blood or that of their children and grandchildren, so they HAVE to be smarter than American libs/Lefties who have the luxury of being a bunch of shitforbrains without having to pay the piper for it.

I read the Orthodox will be the majority in Israel by 2030.

Orthodox still like kids. Many seculars prefer bmw’s (and some are ev even homosexual)
