The fact that only Ted Cruz, a Christian Republican, cares enough about the fate of Israel to issue such a statement today speaks volumes about the state of America, the Democratic party, and Jewish Americans.
Bernie Sanders, a man of Jewish heritage and a leading contender for the Democratic presidential nomination, has been silent on all things affecting Israel, primarily the anti-Semitism repeatedly expressed by the leader of his party, Barack Obama, particularly his attacks on Israel’s prime minister and his championing of Iran, Israel’s mortal enemy, as a nuclear power.
Then there’s another leading figure of Jewish heritage, John Kerry, whose major focus as Secretary of State has been attacking Israel and signing a treaty allowing Iran to develop nuclear weapons.
Soon we will see how many Jewish-American Senators, from Chuck Schumer to Al Franken to Dianne Feinstein, and also including Richard Blumenthal, Brian Schatz, Ron Wyden, Michael Bennet, Barbara Boxer, and Bernie Sanders, will be eager to stab their Jewish brothers and sisters in Israel in the back by approving the pro-Iranian treaty when it comes up for a vote in Congress — a treaty that is so contrary to both U.S. and Israeli interests and so in favor of the interests of their enemy Iran, that approving it will mean giving aid and comfort to the enemy, also known as committing treason.
It will be interesting to see which Senators, Jewish and otherwise, will be despicable enough to commit such a crime.
My point is, one does not support and protect that with which one does not identify. And these JINOS have no identification with that which might make them stick out or be perceived as different. They are cowards and worse.
