French Jews veer to political right

It looks like France's Jews get the picture. It would be nice if American Jews did.

[Lion in Winter]

PING

[Texas Eagle]

Heh, heh. God works in mysterious ways.

Not to mention wickedly humourous ways.

[Michael.SF.]

Amen to that. For the life of me, I cannot figure out why so many Jews in America continue to vote Democratic.

[SauronOfMordor]

Amazing what having millions of rabid Muzzies baying for your blood can do, as far as making you wake up and see reality. The Left has adopted the Muzzies, so the Jews need to wake up (and finally are doing so)

[rmlew]

Have the polled for Vicomte Phillipe De Villers and the MPF?
Unlike Le Pen, Villiers is not a Vichy dhimmi.

[Ironclad]

It's gonna happen here, too. It's just amazing they stuck with the left as long as they did.

[impatient]

WHOA!

Isn't "right" = neo-Nazi according to the Dictionary of Proper MSM Usage.

They'll either have to admit they've been lying for the past 50 years, or argue about the meaning of the word "is".

Any bets... anyone?

[CatoRenasci]

How about the Action Francaise?

"It looks like France's Jews get the picture. It would be nice if American Jews did."

There is a good article in this months "Commentary" that states the reason(s) that American Jews are not supporting the right or Israel.

[rmlew]

Are there enough Royalists in France to elect a single parliamentarian?

[Northern Alliance]

Exactly right. Hopefully this - more Jews moving to the right - will happen in North America as well - I think it will, but a few years off yet.

[Arpege92]

The Jews are learning that the left will not protect them!

[CatoRenasci]

I doubt it. But, you never know. BTW, the Action Francais was the French fascist movement, their equivalent of the Italian facisti and the German NSDAP.

They should have gotten the hint during the Vichy regime.

[ffusco]

Fascism was a nationalist movement more like a constitutional monarchy. Nazism was a totalitarian movement based on race more like Stalin's Soviet Union.

[rmlew]

Jonathan Rosenblum of Cross Cuyrrents blog has a good summary.

In my opinion the presumptions behind the relationship between liberalism/modernity and religion and leftist anti-nationalism is killing Jewry.

[ckilmer]

That goes back the McCarthy period. Its a long story.

Amen! A good friend and former coworker of mine is an Orthodox Jew and yellow dog Democrat. According to him, the social views of the Dem Party (pro-abortion, pro-Sodomite, anti-gun, etc.) outweigh the Pubbies' strong support of Israel. He claims that most Jews are VERY liberal on social issues. From what little I know of the Jewish faith, those liberal values contradict the Law of Moses. I was unable to convince him that the Republican Party supports religious and other freedoms and the State of Israel. Color me confused...

[Michael.SF.]

Its a long story.

The story is longer then McCarthy, and I know history. History is history. People should vote based on today. Most Jews in America don't.

Please (no sarcasm implied), correct me where I am wrong.
