I don’t know. My liberal, libertarian jewish friend says she doesn’t care if theY build a mosque at ground zero or not. She is all for tolerance and diversity. Her friend Jane died in one of the planes that hit the world trade tower. I asked her, what would Jane think, and she said “Jane would want the mosque.”
Well then, Jane is an idiot.
On the other hand, I live outside of Miami and am watching carefully what is being written about and said in the Jewish press. Especially in Palm Beach and Broward areas.
Jews are turning on Obama and the Dems. The economy is a big part of it but what has sealed the cake is the admins treatment of Israel AND Iran’s nuclear plant.
A few well know Rabbi’s from large congregations have come out with strong anti-Obama/anti-Clinton. pro-Republican editorials.
The tide has turned and while 2% of the population can not sway an election, perception counts. As Jews start moving to the GOP in large numbers, it sends a very loud signal.
Jane was stupid (and liberal), too.
My condolences for her friend Jane. Ask your liberal friend if she’d like a Nazi Party bund meeting hall within close proximity of Ground Zero, or better yet, next to the largest synagogue in NYC? Why not, after all, we must be tolerant of all people’s belief, regardless of the degree of hatred. And of course become diverse, so no one group is dominant and we can all get along and admire each others differences (even if we can’t agree on basic philosophical/religious beliefs), if that’s what she means by diverse. Your friend is adolescent in her mindset, hence her naivete and gullibility. Please have her study history to better understand the ugly, evil side of humanity that has always and will always exist in mankind, because we are imperfect and inclined to error and dare i say it, sin? Oh, I forgot, choices (bad ones, sin) are relevant, so when groups of totalitarian types (nazis, stalinists, maoists, islamists) decide to perform mass murder, it’s ok, they really don’t mean it, they’re making a choice that is comfortable for them. I’ll never understand the incredible stupidity and state of denial liberals find themselves in. It will get the rest of us killed.
I’m sure Jane would also approve of Iranian nukes, and the testing of them 2 miles off the coast of tel aviv. After all, we shouldn’t be the only ones with nukes, seeing as how we cause all the worlds problems and all....
When Ahmadinnerjacket brings the second holocaust, Jews in the media will preach restraint, while their brethren are slaughtered. Or they’ll just ignore it altogether.
Koo Koo..Koo Koo...Koo Koo.
Perhaps she will change her mind after she is raped, then buried up to her chest and the first stone hits her head?
This is ingrained in the Jewish culture. Even after Moses led the Jews out of slavery, most of them wanted to return to Egypt. They preferred slavery to possible starvation. They like government’s security blanket. Jews outside of Israel lean toward appeasement. They support Israel more as catastrophic country insurance; and by supporting a victory mosque at ground zero, you better make sure you have your policy up to date.
