re: This isn't about Democrats.))) Well, 76% of American Jews vote Democrat, and the DNC is less supportive of Israel every day. I don't hear much scolding of the Dems. The Dems are more and more owned by the Progressives, and controlled in a very startling way by George Soros, like he's cornering another currency market. The progressives don't seem to need to be drunk to be antisemite.

As for what it has to do with Rice, it goes back to the first question I posed. Without significant, vocal, unified support from American Jews, where will come the pro-Israel ideology and leadership in the US? Who's supposed to carry this responsibility?

If you thought all Leiberman's problems were about Iraq, you should have been reading more of Lamont's progressive backers.

With the antisemitism, the anti-Israelism that underpinned Leiberman's defeat, I assert that it is now politically safe to be anti-Israel. In my lifetime, it has never been politically safe to be anti-Israel in either party.

Whatever "spitting" is going on, it is now very probable that we have seen our last pro-Israel administration.

You forget that after all Lieberman will likely win.

The Bush Administration is proving that if your issue is Israel you may as well vote Democrat.

I'm not ready to believe all future Administrations will be anti Israel.

Just those with family and business ties to the Saudis and an honorary family member named Bandar Bush.

But for all future Administrations I will be on the lookout for that telltale sign- hand holding with Arab tyrants.
