'US Jews back military strike on Iran'
Jerusalem Post ^ | Sep 30, 2009 | HAVIV RETTIG GUR

Posted on 09/30/2009 9:58:27 PM PDT by rdl6989

A majority of American Jews support military action against Iran to prevent the Teheran regime from obtaining nuclear weapons, a new study claims.

Asked if they would support American military action, 56% of American Jews said they would, while just 36% opposed it, according to the American Jewish Committee's 2009 Annual Survey of American Jewish Opinion.

An even greater number support Israeli military action against the Iranian nuclear program, with 66% in favor and just 28% against.

The survey, which polled 800 representative American Jews and was conducted by Synovate between August 30 and September 17, also dealt with US-Israeli relations, worries over anti-Semitism and identity.

78% of US Jews backed the muslim in Nov 2008. These people hated Bush even though Bush was a strong supporter of Israel and Bibi. Bibi’s tour of America drew the largest crowds at big churches. Far bigger than the crowds he drew at temples.

Sorry too late - you blew it as did 50+% of Kennedy Notre Dame (pro abortion) Catholics and liberal Protestants.

We warned you Hussein had Hamas and Muslim Brotherhood moles in his camp plus other virulent anti-semites. You did not listen. Liberal Jews still love Hussein as do ignorant union Catholics.

Israel’s military can deal with it now plus the Saudis, India and the Islamo-facist loving UN. I am friends with conservative Jews who left Europe because they “get it.”

Seems rather a contradiction, since they overwhelmingly supported (and voted for) a guy who does is not concerned with Israel’s security?

Cut off all aid to Israel, and the moslem-Israel problem will be history in a month. Guess why?

well why the F did they vote overwhelmingly for the appeaser?

nice to know that while they don’t mind destroying the US they will at least grow a pair for their kinsmen in Israel

thanks for nothing

maybe Spielberg can make an ambiguous movie about it when Israel does what they have the full right to

I wonder what non American Israelis think about American Jews (most of them) today?

back in my Israel days, the old line Ladino types thought American Jews were soft...but they didn’t like all the European Jews who streamed in after the Holocaust all that much either

ironic...the Saudis give IDF flight path and now American liberal Jews are ok with it...lol

they need to go get some Katushya therapy and wake their silly asses up as to just how perilous it is over there

for that matter they can take Ron Paul with them..and Jim Trafficant

I agree with all the anger here about the Jews putting the Antichrist in power as president. The Catholics did the same. The Blacks did the same. Women did the same. I don't know of many "groups" that didn't vote in the majority for the muslim.

So do we go against the Bible and abandon Israel because they crapped in their socialist mess kit again, or join them and blast the rags into hell where they belong? I have to always look out for America. I want God's Grace on the US. I don't think we can join the enemies of God and keep our standing with God. The Jews have had good rulers and bad rulers and have paid the price throughout history. They will be saved in the end and we are instructed to support them,........no matter what. I'm in favor of blasting rags wherever they are found. I am convinced we are at war till Jesus comes. There will be no winner of this war. There is no surrender. We may as well take as many out as possible till Jesus comes.

I was struck by Glenn Beck today talking about the 12th Madi coming out of a well to kill Infidels and rule the world. I haven't had a chance to look up the verses yet, but I believe I can find the "Beast" crawling out of the bottomless pit to commit war on Christians and attempt to rule the world somewhere in Revelations. Seems the rags worship the Beast if he comes from a well in the earth.

The American Jewish Community can BITE ME.

For years, liberal Jews in the United States have walked around lecturing us about “cowboy diplomacy” and the evils of the American military.

And they’ve voted and given money to peaceniks, Communists, Socialists all while looking down on average people like myself.

They voted Obama full well knowing he loves terrorists, the Nation of Islam and militant Muslims.

Next election cycle won’t be any different.

They wanted it. They got it. NOW THEY CAN ROT IN IT!

As the Bible says: You reap what you sow.

The younger secular American Jews—and most American Jews are secular—have very little interest in Israel. They would not have voted overwhelmingly for Obama if they cared about Israel. If they cared about the USA.

You know it. The minute we stop paying the Israelis to stand pat, the will CHARGE AND DESTROY. We stop Aid to Israel and the very next day, every stinking moslem Country on Earth will send a delegation to Israel begging for mercy.

Eventually the Jews are going to have to do what the rest of the world will have to do to survive. Annihilate Islam.

There have been many Religions that have been dumped into the the dust bin of history, and it needs to be done again with islam.

A couple of years ago, I was banned for 6 months for saying that. It appears the the rest of the free, and sane world is finally catching up to reality. There can be no peace on Earth while Islam exists.

The U.S. Jews were for Obama too. How's that working out for them?

Did you see that crazy interview Sean Hannity had with Trafficant? That guy sounded like a nutcake.

did you hear where Beck said the little nutjob from Iran knows and talks to the 12th Imann. Maybe that is why Iran is acting so cocky. Things could go bad real fast if they think they can bring on the 12th Mahdi. and as far as Catholics go, me being one, there were many who did not vote for Obama. They would be the conservative Catholics.

...."They would be the conservative Catholics.".....

Yeah, I've had this argument ad nauseum. Seems some Catholics feel there isn't a real problem in the Church when you have over 60% voting for Obama and Pelosi, Kennedy, Biden, Kerry, and many more Catholic "leaders" seem to keep getting away with, well, EVERYTHING, and the Church loves them. Weren't your cockles warmed during the Kennedy love fest? If you say anything you are "Catholic bashing", and if you keep quiet, you just make excuses for the Church falling apart. If I've heard it once, I've heard it a million times that these aren't "real" Catholics. Well, kick them out! Oh NO! They are famous and tithe pretty good. I'm really having alot of problems with the Church, not the pukes that warm the pews.

I know I'm guilty of heresy, but this is becoming a huge problem for me. It's my problem I will have to work out, but the problem is with the Church teaching one thing and accepting the other. Read the problems in the Corinthian church. Paul said to throw the sinners out after confronting them. I have to wonder if the pope even confronted Pelosi when she paid him a visit. Sorry, this is just a big thing for me. We have cardinals, priests, and bishops that just seem to go along to get along. If everybody in Boston is Catholic, how do we have Kerry, Kenedy, Bwarney Fwank, re elected year after year.

Gotta go, I'm starting to throw things.
