If this isn't an example of the obvious fact the Conservative/Orthodox Jewish community will be the cultural bulwark, in His Hands, against the spiritual fatigue and malaise of the Jewish nation through its trials, I don't know what is. Give me a ZOA rep any time.

Anybody have a regular mailing address on this guy? I'd like to approach him and explain a few things on how G-d, the IDF, and a platoon of Jewish FReepers in country and out will continue to be the vanguard of, and actively involved in, a very forward thinking and secure Nation of Israel, while he ... Abe ... what? ... what is he accomplishing?

He knows all that. He's got a political agenda, fighting antisemitism is his night job.

"...to reinforce a dual approach: working for and welcoming conservative Christian support for Israel at a particularly difficult time for the Jewish state and, at the same time, never backing off or toning down our principled positions on social issues about which we vehemently disagree with evangelical approaches.

I see that my assessment of Mr. Foxman continues to be vindicated. And so my previous exclamation to him stands. What is missing entirely from Mr.Foxman's odd analysis, is an acknowledgment of any basis of secular support in America for Israel. Granted, like Israel, America is a nation with strong religious roots. And while the historic manifestations have transformed Hebrew theology, the fundamental concepts remain the same with respect to the nature of Man and existence. Is it any wonder that both nations spawned and cultivate strong democratic principles? The more the world rejects 'living' philosophies (those that promote individual liberty, responsibility and common values), the further they slide toward Statism and chaos. Observe the growing insanity of the modern Left... a group of people most notable for their belief in nothing. In absence of a common secular philosophy of life (like Objectivism, for instance), religion provides civilization with a medium in which to grow firm and strong... but as we see, not all religions are created equal, just as slavery and liberty are not similarly legitimate concepts. Some contain the ingredients of death.

Perhaps what we have in the way of common imperatives is not the words and personalities of an old testament, but the ideas and principles outlined, therein. That is what has and will continue to transcend our petty differences. Perhaps that is why Christians and Jews do not let movies nor personalities ignite the violent side of their passions... Mr. Foxman.
