Michigan AG Urges Jews to Sacrifice “Survival” to Elect Abdul El-Sayed
Front Page Magazine ^ | 09/01/2026 | Daniel Greenfield

Posted on 09/01/2026 3:42:07 AM PDT by DFG

Some endorsements are so bad that they qualify as anti-endorsements. And I can’t think of any endorsement worse than the one that Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, who is Jewish and said that she couldn’t attend the state Dem convention because of fears for her safety, just offered Abdul El-Sayed and her party at the Michigan Jewish Democratic Convention.

“We have a moral imperative to place the needs of the world above even our own self-interest and, yes, even our own survival,” Nessel told attendees.

Nessel acknowledged that Jews were being forced into a “stark choice” thanks to “members of our own party who seek the destruction of Israel as a Jewish state and place the Jewish diaspora in jeopardy.”

She alluded to Queen Esther, the biblical heroine of the Jewish holiday of Purim, in a dramatic illustration of the high stakes of the race.

“It is perhaps up to us now to follow in her path,” Nessel said, “and sacrifice the comfort, safety and security and even the very future of our own people in exchange for the opportunity to save the rest of humanity.” (In the Purim story, however, Queen Esther risked her own life to save the Jews rather than putting aside Jewish safety for a supposed greater good.)

“We have a moral imperative to place the needs of the world above even our own self-interest and, yes, even our own survival,” she told the crowd.

Nessel said that other societal concerns – climate change, artificial intelligence, the threat of nuclear warfare – loom larger than support for Israel alone and would worsen under continued GOP rule. “What is defending the historic homeland of our ancestors and demanding that candidates acknowledge its right to exist, if the planet upon which it rests is no longer inhabitable?” she asked.

“Come November, what do your Jewish values tell you to do?” Nessel asked, arguing against voting to empower Republicans when other urgent factors are also at play that go beyond Israel as well as the Jewish community.

Abandon “survival” and commit suicide on the theory that electing Abdul El-Sayed and giving Dems a Senate majority will save the planet?

That is what the Democrat pitch to Jews now comes down to. Abandon your survival for the sake of the survival of the planet, which Dems have done a fantastic job with.

The complete moral bankruptcy of Jewish liberalism could be no better encapsulated than in this phrase from Nessel, “sacrifice the comfort, safety and security and even the very future of our own people in exchange for the opportunity to save the rest of humanity.”

To be a liberal Jews is to sacrifice the future of the Jewish people on the theory that only leftist politics can save humanity.

It’s best not to question why this movement that alone can save humanity also requires the destruction of the Jews. Only two possible answers emerge, either the Jews are evil, the leftist position, or the Left is evil, the conservative, the moderate and the Jewish position.

Some speeches are wonderfully clarifying. This one certainly is. The choice is between a Jewish future and no future for the Jews, between survival and leftist politics.

To vote for the Left, as the Jewish Attorney General of Michigan has spelled out, is to eliminate any future for the Jews.

Doing it is literally suicide.

There’s this laser focus on Jewish people vis-a-vis coexistence with outwardly radical Muslim politicians. They’re being warned not to get involved. I wonder why there aren’t similar cautions to Christians? Is the left so devoid of faith that there aren’t any Christians engaged at all? Or is it that the left believes that Christians have been sufficiently tamed to do their bidding and will be eaten last when the Communist machine eats its own, as is it wont to do?

She’s basically arguing that Hitler was correct.

"...if the planet upon which it rests is no longer inhabitable?” she asked.

Only 4.40 years left.

This woman seems to be having some kind of mental breakdown. She’s the same one that wouldn’t go the the Dem Convention because she was afraid of getting harassed, as she had been in the past. Now she’s telling Jews to vote regardless of their own interests in order to, what? Save the erf?

She’s the sitting AG of that state, and she’s cracking up. NOT GOOD.

Any Jew who would vote for Al-Sayed, or who voted for Mamdani, or any of the rest of these creeps, is crazier than she is.

First we expose the POS TOTALITARIANS, then shun them. If that doesn’t work, they most likely need to be eliminated.

There were Jews in the concentration camps that cooperated with the Nazis.
