[Alouette]

Just because his name is Cohen doesn't necessarily mean that he is a descendant of Aaron, or even a Jew.

My family are Cohenim, but our last name is not Cohen.

Even if he is Jewish, sadly there is no shortage of koolaid-swallowing appeasement monkeys.

[Knitting A Conundrum]

I believe he is ethnically Jewish...but I hate to call anyone who talks like that, Jewish. What a betrayal.

You are right about the appeasement monkeys. It reminds me of a friend of mine who is a very leftist poltical person. He hangs around the radical lesbian movement, because he feels guilty for being born a white American male.

Wisful mental image when I come across people like him who do and act this way: that they, so dense about the reality of the world, be stuck in some dark corner someday and be given endless accounts of the Warsaw Ghetto and Auschwitz and Treblinka to come to terms with, followed by accounts of all the atrocities done to people in Israel and after each page, may they have to write a thousand times: This is what my enemies want to do to me and my family. Maybe then they would get the message.

But for some, I doubt it would work.
