Why Do Jews Vote for Their Enemies?
American Thinker ^ | 10/27/2010 | James Lewis

Posted on 10/27/2010 7:23:03 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

American blacks vote Obama for the color of his skin. American Leftists vote O because they hope he will shaft this country more royally than anybody else has so far.

So what excuse do the Jews have? The black and the radical leftist vote O for reasons I can understand. Obama is black, even if his life experience has no relationship to the average American black person -- none at all. And Obama is a radical, so even the radicals have a reason. However, why does Obama keep has favorable standing with American Jews? It makes no sense.

With his favoritism for Muslims, by trying constantly to undermine the elected government of Israel and by constantly reaching out to a Hitler-wannabe in Iran, Obama has made it clear enough what side he's on. His friends Jodie Evans of Code Pink and Bill Ayers agitated for the Gaza flotilla that turned into a planned PR disaster for Israel. His administration supports the grotesque and shameful farce of Iran, the Sudan, and Libya sitting on the U.N. Human Rights Council. Those are genocidal, torturing, and utterly reactionary regimes. And that's just the start of Obama's bitter hatred of Israel and Western values. There's more coming -- you betcha.

American Jews are voting against their plain self-interest. They voted for someone who listened to J-Wright ranting against Jews and whites for twenty years. Wright is a race-hater, pure and simple, and he hates Whitey and the Jews. What's more, Michelle Obama is the daughter of a Chicago ward boss who grew up in that atmosphere, rife with Louis Farrakahn and the Black Muslims, J-Wright, and the ranting Father Pfleger. Michelle grew up with the Jesse Jackson family, and we know where Jesse stands. Put all that together, and you get classical Jew-hating. It's obvious to anybody who pays attention.

Obama's pal George Soros helped set up the phony front group J Street, which specializes in undermining Israel while claiming to defend it; it's classical Stalinist agitprop. Anybody could find that out. Granted that the media tried to cover it all up, but it's on the web, for goodness' sake. Use your fingers and it's right there.

Jews have the reputation of being intelligent, and academically, they often are. But Jewish smart people seem to be -- how shall I say this? -- incapable of thinking straight about politics. Once many Jews figure out what side in politics they are rooting for, they are stuck for life. No facts, no matter how persuasive, will change their minds. This is nuts. It is certainly not intelligent. In politics, American Jews seem to be idiots savant: Very bright in one part of life, but with big islands of ignorance, denial, and wishful thinking.

And yes, some of my best friends, and all that.

I can make up all kinds of imaginary reasons. Back in Europe it was the socialists and Soviets who ultimately did the most harm to the Nazis, so Eastern European Jews were drawn into that horrific maelstrom and chose the only side that wasn't systematically threatening and killing Jews. But that's historically one-sided. George Soros infamously grew up in Hungary selling the (stolen) furniture and art of the Jews who were marched to the concentration camp. Liberal Jews still admire the man.

Jews are attracted to the fantasy world of the lion lying down with the lamb. But reality tells us it hasn't happened yet, and the chances that peace will break out all over are not high. The Left constantly runs that sucker play, and American Jews fall for it. I've talked with Jewish friends, and I keep trying to figure it out. Can't they spot a cruel scam when they see it? Where is their intelligence?

The Jews in Europe had a very bad time with Catholics and Orthodox of various stripes, especially in Poland and Russia. And yet the European Enlightenment that started the liberation of Jews from the medieval ghetto was created by many Christians and some Jews. Historically, Christianity has both anti-Semitic elements and philo-Semitic ones, as the historian Paul Johnson points out in his history of the Jews. Listen to Mozart's Requiem Mass. Half the text comes from the Hebrew Bible.

A billion Muslims in the world are exposed to classic anti-Semitic hate propaganda. You can see it day by day on the MEMRI website, with straight translations from the Persian and Arab language media. Hate-Jew cartoons are all over those Islamic media. Hitler's Mein Kampf sells like hotcakes in Egypt. The Saudis sponsored a truly filthy TV series shown throughout the Arab world based on the Elders of Zion, the phony czarist anti-Jewish propaganda tale. (It features those folks with caricatured Shylock faces who are constantly plotting to take over the world, talking like Snidely Whiplash and rubbing their hand in glee while they are preparing to kill a Christian baby for Passover.) This is sleazy, nasty, hateful, and moronic stuff. Arab audiences in Egypt and Iran just love it. They are mental throwbacks to the Dark Ages.

And yet, American Jews vote for Obama. Now, Obama himself is careful to avoid any appearance of militant hatred of Jews. He just inveighs against "Wall Street Fat Cats" and "Neo-cons" and protects Black Muslims who are caught in voter intimidation in Philadelphia. A lot of those targets of abuse are Jews, and a lot of them sort of agree with Obama's rants against capitalism. But capitalism frees people, and the Jews, who have suffered more than their share of oppression, should recognize that instantly.

Half of American Jews are women. Women are badly used and abused both sexually and physically throughout the Islamic world. So are gay people. So are Christians who profess a religion that does not elevate Muhammad as the last prophet. Jews by the million have been forced to leave Muslim countries and are now settled in Israel and America. Every other day Ahmadinejad issues another nuclear threat against Tel Aviv. The Muslim Brotherhood, which inspired Hamas, has acted to destroy Jews and Israelis since its World War II alliance with Hitler. Jimmy Carter is a big fan of Hamas and brought that other medieval throwback, Ayatollah Khomeini, into power, thereby driving Jews and other Iranians out of that country.

And still the Jews vote 70-plus percent for their enemies.

Two plus two does not equal four.

This is not adult, rational behavior. It is not intelligent. It is not wise or benevolent. It is not charitable toward the weak and oppressed peoples of the earth. It is not good for future generations. And as 97 percent of the Israeli public has decided, Obama is very bad for Israel; after all, he's done nothing visible about Iranian nukes, which are the biggest genocidal danger to Israel ever. A second Holocaust has never been closer. Obama's backed off now for the election, but he'll be back at Netanyahu's throat as soon as the election is past. His White House "advisors" are all for shafting Israel but good. It's their substitute for sane foreign policy.

Something isn't right here. People usually don't vote for those who hate them and who constantly act in alliance with genocidal haters like Hamas and the Iranian fascisti.

Something isn't right.

Now watch the midterm elections, when the country will render its first verdict on Obama and his cronies in office, on the recession, the insanely high budgets, Obama's friendly alliances with ranting enemies of America and Israel.

I'll bet that Obama's crew gets more than 50 percent of the Jewish vote in the midterms.

I am sad about it as the holidays approach.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I feel your pain. It isn't just Jewish families.

After the 2000 election recount in Florida, the scales fell from my eyes. I realized that Democrats were not people of good will. It was evident with this Florida recount that that they would do **anything** to achieve power.

After the 2000 election, I could never again have a Democrat, all of whom are liberals ( Marxists really), for a friend. They were either too stupid or too evil, or both.

The divide between those who promote Marxism and those who promote freedom can no longer be breached. The tribes are day by day coalescing.

For the Jews it is better to support a coalition for big government and deal with the anti Jewish elements within the coalition then to live in a small gov nation and be at the mercy of the majority population.

Hmmm. Almost makes sense. Too bad it was an all powerful big government that tried to implement a final solution to the Jewish problem...

The Jewish vote does not “swing” these states Democrat. The only state where the Jewish vote makes a difference is Florida. Look up the numbers.

A more interesting question is why conservatives are so obsessed with less than 2% of the voting population. Some moral doubt that demands Jewish approval?

That's a small part of it, one could do worse that to have the approval of God's chosen people!

The bigger part is because by-and-large Jewish people are better educated than average, tend to have more professionals, are more entrepreneurial, and are perceived to be wealthier than average.

All traits that we admire and see in ourselves.

We would expect a group that is perceived as shiftless, lazy and mal-educated to vote for the dole, but not the people who pay for the dole!

If they are so smart, why don't they vote for us? We (or at least I) wonder if there is some inexplicable flaw in us that they see and we don't or can't.

So long as there is a modern nation of Israel to support, evangelicals will not abandon it. It's that Biblical literalist thing. Nothing fickle about it.

And after that, what? Back to persecuting Jews?

Fits them.

I was responding to a comment that I should have quoted before the image. I felt that Saul Alinski was a good example of the type of “Jew” that he described.

To make myself clear, I am a Christian who always supports Israel and loaths the Left.

This is a very interesting thread and understanding it is very important in the current mess we are in.

From a Biblical literalist standpoint, now that it’s been reestablished, there is no “after that.”

Such a consideration is counter to Biblical prophecy and is not part of the Biblical literalist, evangelical worldview. So, there is no answer to your question.

Here ya go. By and large, those in the US who call themselves jews are reform and have NO real attachment to Hebrews or Israelites. These are the same kind of “jews” that defied ALL the teachings and Laws which caused the destruction of Biblical Israel. They were destructive to us then and they are destructive now and not much has happened to change the fact that they are not ME nor I them. We are like oil and water. Calling oneself a jew does not make one a Hebrew nor a believer in G-d or in the Law or even Noachide.
What they are, and what they continue to be, are identity thieves. Period.

Yes, the Evangelical Right supports Jews and that is great. But lets face it, it is because they believe A)G-d tells them to bless Israel

Is there another reason to do or believe anything other than that "G-d tells them to?"

OK. Now take off your evangelical Christian hat and put on a yarmulke.

If the state of Israel vanishes from the face of the earth (And remember, as a Jew you do not believe in New Testament prophecy) the evangelical movement will implode.

The former evangelicals will feel betrayed as the core tenant of their faith has been repudiated. They will be angry and looking for someone else to blame.

If you can keep your yarmulke on straight you'd realize that a Jew would have the very reasonable and very well historically founded belief that the former evangelicals would 'revert to type' and blame and therefore persecute the Jews.

After all, blaming the victim is a well entrenched liberal value, and all you know by education and local culture is liberal values.

So as a Jew you have no reason to believe that tiny Israel, surrounded by 180 or so hostile countries will survive. As a Jew you know that when (not if) Israel collapses American Bible thumpers will start thumping Jews, you had better do all you can to keep them out of power!

Better to be ruled by amoral atheists and get treated equally poorly as everyone else than to be singled out for extra special attention...
