"America just abdicated its responsibility to defend itself against Iran and so left Israel high and dry. "
Correction:
The American left, supported by American Jews, just abdicated its responsibility to defend itself against Iran and so left Israel high and dry.
bump that. But at least they didn't vote with the Pat Robertson crowd! oo, ick! Better Jerusalem demolished than rub elbows with a snake-handler.
That's the ultimate question. He seems as if he is being tugged from several sides and is drifting, trying to decide how to go.
Being aware of the base is not always the same thing as doing what the base would want, unfortunately.
Gosh... I think it would take some time to count all the mosquitoes in MY neighborhood!
;-)
You are painting with too broad a brush there, TET. A good-sized segment of American Jews do not support the American left at all, and even a larger percentage don't support the left on "leaving Israel high and dry."
Remember that the so-called "neocons" in the Bush administration are heavily Jewish as a group. If there's any group the American left hates more than "neocons," I'd like to know.
If Jews wake up, their first order of business will be to stop supporting the Liberal Democrat party that is anti-Israel and anti-Jew.
I'm a Jew and I've "always" been a Conservative Republican since Goldwater (when I was old enough to vote). There are more Jews that vote Republican than you may realize and more are seeing the light every day. My brother is Orthodox and his synagogue consists of almost all Republicans.
Liberals leaving Israel high and dry won't sit well with American Jews that financially support the Liberal Democrat party. Pelosi and her cohorts better think twice about pissing off the $$. IMO, Liberal anti-semitic bent is becoming more transparent every day. And, while I'm at it, Liberal attacks on religion aren't limited to Jews.
 do not support the American left at all...." Really? If 90% (+/-) of Jewish voters in the USA voted democrat in 2006 what do you define as a "good-sized segment of American Jews"?

The citizens of the State of Israel must also take to the streets. The government that led us to defeat in Lebanon this summer is leading us to a disaster of another order entirely. All citizens must demand that Olmert, his ministers and the generals in the IDF General Staff make an immediate decision. They now hold the responsibility for acting against Iran. They must either act or resign and make way for others who will.
America just abdicated its responsibility to defend itself against Iran and so left Israel high and dry. Nevertheless, the Jewish people is far from powerless. And the State of Israel also is capable of defending itself. But we must act and act immediately.
So why did Bush pick Baker?
I didn't like the pick, because Baker is weak on fighting our enemy, but didn't know he was an anti-Semite, as well.--Sun
Apparently, the smug, elitist. naive lefties here and in Israel don't agree.
They still don't get it.
The clintons willingly sold out Israel--all of western civilization, for that matter--for a shot at the Nobel Peace Prize.
Sick.
Jimmy Carter, James Baker and George H.W. Bush are in the news. Carter has a new book, Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid. Baker is crafting a new Middle East policy for America. Papa Bush's "realist" foreign policy is being vindicated by his son's misadventures, and his men are moving back into power in Washington.
Naturally, Israelis are filled with dread. As far as they're concerned, the title of Carter's book tells you everything you need to know about how he feels toward Israel. As for Baker, didn't he say "F--- the Jews" or something like that? And Bush the First refused Israel those loan guarantees, which shows how much of a friend he is.
Israelis don't like American leaders trying to tell them what to do, and they especially don't like American leaders protesting the way they treat Palestinians. So Carter is widely viewed in this country as an anti-Semite, while Baker and H.W. are thought of as "Arabists," which is a euphemism for anti-Semites.
In my view, this is redneck thinking, Israeli Archie Bunkerism. Not only don't I see Carter, Baker and the first president Bush as anti-Semites, I appreciate them all as proven friends of Israel. They just dared to be friends of the Palestinians, too, and this Israelis won't accept. It's not enough to be pro-Israel, you have to be both pro-Israel and anti-Arab - like Bush the Second - to be our friend. Helping us try to make peace with our enemies - like Bill Clinton did - doesn't get you anywhere with us. Helping us make war against our enemies - that's the litmus test of friendship around here.

by Mia T, 11.11.05This legacy confab is in and of itself proof certain of clinton's deeply flawed character, and a demonstration in real time of the way in which the clinton years were about a legacy that was incidentally a presidency.
Madeleine Albright captured the essence of this dysfunctional presidency best when she explained why clinton couldn't go after bin Laden.
According to Richard Miniter, the Albright revelation occurred at the cabinet meeting that would decide the disposition of the USS Cole bombing by al Qaeda [that is to say, that would decide to do what it had always done when a "bimbo" was not spilling the beans on the clintons: Nothing]. Only Clarke wanted to retaliate militarily for this unambiguous act of war.
Albright explained that a [sham] Mideast accord would yield [if not peace for the principals, surely] a Nobel Peace Prize for clinton. Kill or capture bin Laden and clinton could kiss the 'accord' and the Peace Prize good-bye.
If clinton liberalism, smallness, cowardice, corruption, perfidy--and, to borrow a phrase from Andrew Cuomo, clinton cluelessness--played a part, it was, in the end, the Nobel Peace Prize that produced the puerile pertinacity that enabled the clintons to shrug off terrorism's global danger.

Excellent posting of graphics and comments devolve.
potlatch! 
Good Ahmadinejad post!
froufrou too!!
I refer you to www.americanthinker.com . Click on SEARCH, then type in the name BAEHR in the box that appears, and then click on the first item of the list of articles that will appear. This should be "The Exit Polls and the Jewish Vote", by Richard Baehr, in The American Thinker, Nov. 15th, 2006.
There is also an article on the Republican Jewish Coalition web site that appeared shortly after the election, detailing the results of an RJC exit poll from NJ, PA, and FL. BTW, the RJC as an organization is growing at a rapid pace in membership, which can be taken as one indicator of movement of Jewish voters toward the GOP. The RJC is a staunch supporter of the President and the American military in the Middle East. (www.rjchq.org)
I hope you will realize that my statement is not "Clintonian" nor "vague and misleading." Clinton is about the last guy in the world to whom I'd want to be compared, and I'm sure that holds true for 99% of the FReepers I've encountered in my years here.
Thanks - 3 sec delay there
Looks good
I knew it was the 3 second one. My brain has a 'timer', bad news when it runs out - snicker!
