If Iran does take steps in the future to annihilate Israel, the leftist Jews who are criticizing Huckabee will never see it coming. And that, Mr. Obama is sad.
As much as can be generalized, Jews have traditionally been liberal. This can be explained by the fact that Jews have been persecuted throughout history and they tend to identify with people and groups that are or appear to be marginalized.
With the rise of the new anti-Semitism on the left under the guise of being anti-Israel but holding Israel to a different standard than other countries with serious human rights abuses, it is hard to understand how liberal Jews can still support the left. This has become more apparent with the agreement reached with the United States and Iran that pretty well assures the Persian nation will acquire nuclear weapons. Iran does not hesitate in expressing the opinion that Israel should be wiped off the map.

Jews have always done well as trusted advisors to the ruling elite. They see socialism/communism as the perfect system for the masses to be tightly controlled by a ruling elite, so they want to be in that position to be the voice in their ear, or the hands on the levers of power behind the curtain. This is especially true in nations with a nominally Christian majority.
ROFLOL!!! Bring back Bob!
Better yet, put Geraldo in the dunk tank!!!
Yes, I, a Jew, can second this notion. We all as a group lust power, especially dominion over Christians. Now obey me and go read the Torah! Bwahahahahaha (evil laugh) Wait, I’m not in power yet? Damn, forgot step one. Nevermind. Please read the Torah?
This is unfortunately the case.
But Gerry the Iranians like Democrats and will have clean restrooms on the trains so it will be okay with most American Jews.
Holocaust survivor guilt.
Daniel advised King Nebuchadnezzar; Joseph advised Pharaoh; Tony Blinken (National Security), Jack Lew (Treasury), Janet Yellen (Federal Reserve), and many others advise Obama. It is not unusual throughout history for Jews to advise evil or petty dictators. God makes that work for his plan, but His long-term vision doesn’t make the situation easier for those crushed by the dictates of those tyrants.
My grandfather came to NYC from somewhere in Russia in the early 1900’s. He was probably met on the dock by a political hack from the Democrat party who gave him a meal, a coat and finding out what he did for a living, a job. He became a Democrat.
My father was born in NY. The family lived in Brownsville, Brooklyn. With all their neighbors and the community all experiencing what my grandfather experienced, they were all Democrat. This meant my father was a Democrat. Like every other young man in the neighborhood, my father went to Korea, won a couple of medals, came home and found a job in Manhattan. As did most of his friends.
Like everyone else at that time, my father met a nice Jewish girl, got married and sometime during the next 13 months, I was born. I grew up listening to my father and his friends talk. I became a Democrat. I was the kid, told to lay in the street when the local teens protested Kent State. My school was integrated and black kids were bussed in. Older kids I knew who one day were teaching me to play ball, suddenly vanished. A few came back. A few didn’t. I became a Democrat.
Then one morning, I woke up, heard that Russia went into Afghanistan. I also heard about Iran taking Americans hostage. But most importantly, some idiot from Plains Georgia, instead of doing something meaningful, was hitting imaginary rabbits with an oar. Also, my parents started complaining more and more about how their hard earned money is being taken from them by the “schmucks in Washington.”
My parents became Republicans. Not long after that, I went into the military and my first vote in any election was for Ronald Reagan. I was now a Republican.
Here is the difference. Wealthy liberal Jews stayed in a circle of friends, working the system to their benefit. Their involvement in their employment,lifestyle and political aspirations kept them in the Democrat fold. My father and his friends and co-workers could no longer afford to be Democrats.
For the wealth Jew, that elitism over his fellow Jews was the downfall. They became “Jewish.” My father remained a “Jew.”
Yuri Andropov. leader of the USSR after Brezhnev, is said to be of a family that originally had the family name Lieberman. His life matches perfectly with your statement.
But Jews in general are an insecure lot, hence the reason they want to be at the top, secretly if necessary. Non-Jews would feel the same given similar situations.
Interesting story of your life. Thank you! But what explains the capitulation of leftist Jews to those who would love to see ALL of THEM thrown into the ovens? And why do they support horrid anti-Semites Obama and Clinton? Bob
Geraldo claims he is of every race and religion what ass
>>We all as a group lust power, especially dominion over Christians. Now obey me and go read the Torah!
We already read the Torah. You must mean the Talmud, especially that chapter on Jesus. I didn’t mean that Jews want dominion over Christians, but we are an inconvenient truth (to steal a phrase from the Progs). For us to have the audacity to think that we are grafted on to your tree must generate some anxiety, and since the Prog agenda includes the eradication of Christianity from culture, there are some common goals there.
So, as a group (generalization, of course), Jews tend to lean left. We know that in the US, approximately 80% voted for Obama’s reelection even after you knew what he was all about. I would suggest from these facts that the modern nation-state called Israel is not as important to those Jews who do not live under the Arab guns as the removal of Jesus Christ from American and European culture.
“Interesting story of your life. Thank you! But what explains the capitulation of leftist Jews to those who would love to see ALL of THEM thrown into the ovens? And why do they support horrid anti-Semites Obama and Clinton?”
Look at George Soros. Also look at Jesse Jackson. They want to eat at the grownup table so they are willing to sell out their own people for a seat at the table. America’s liberal Jewish population are the same way. It’s elitist. And it is also my theory that those were the Jews Hitler wanted dead.
The rest of us were collateral damage.
