The Jews of the United States need to strengthen themselves before they can strengthen Israel, Rabbi David Algaze told Arutz Sheva.
Unfortunately, many Jews in America, instead of strengthening their sense of belonging to Israel, are joining forces with the enemies of Israel, Rabbi Algaze, President of the World Committee For The Land Of Israel, said. He cited examples of Jewish institutions in the U.S. inviting people such as author Alice Walker and members of the PLO, who are clearly against Israel, for public appearances.
Weve forgotten our history and weve forgotten the efforts of our people to return to the land of Israel, and I think that the first thing that we can do is educate our people about our principles and history, and thus also to send to Israel that message, he said.

I dunno, Rabbi ...
I have a pretty fair handle on Israel and her history ... maybe y'all should start attendin' an independent, fundamental Baptist church.
What part of what he said do you disagree with?
I agree with him ... Modern Israel, or perhaps I should say American Jews, don't seem to have the grasp of their own spiritual history that many fundamental Christians have.
Oh sorry mate - and you are so correct about that!
Considering that something like 70% of Jews voted for Obama, don’t blame the right for failing to protect Israel. They helped make it impossible for the right to do anything at all.
American Jews could do themselves and Israel a favor by abandoning their 70% support of the far-left, PLO-loving Demonrat Party.
This Rabbi is 100% spot on...sad to see American Jews so willing to cavort with their enemies
Yes it is ridiculous. I think that most Jews steer clear of anything they think is right-wing because they have been fooled into equating Nazism with right wing politics the same way that many Black Americans believe right wing politics is racist.
The Progressive left has done the job over many years in selling the lies to people who can’t think past the last headline!

This means that they stand by and avidly support every cause known to man EXCEPT their own survival. The further away these Jews move from Torah and traditional Judaism, the more ignorant the become and then they wind up supporting direct Jew killers like Yassir Arafart, and indirect Jew killers like Martin Indyk, Dennis Ross, Mad Albright, William Cohen and Sandy Berger (all Clinton's Jews).
Any Jew who voted for Obama and believed his lies did so willingly because he promised them what Jews love to hear more tahn any other term, namely, CHANGE!
Compare American Jews' political views to that of Israeli Jews...POLAR OPPOSITES. Israelis loved G.W. Bush while detesting Obama. Why?, because the Jews in Israel suffer the consequences of BAD US foreign policies which are supported by their brethren Jews in America. There, in Israel, death is closer. For Jews in America death is as close as the next fatty Pastrami sandwich. Do I sound like an anti-semite? no, I am a Jew living in Israel who LIVES the difference.
Bless you Netz and thank-you for your on-the-ground insight. I for one will always support Israel.

I am so sick and tired of seeing this Jewish “Deer in the Headlights” phenomenon that I write caustic stuff like this.
It always amazes me to see “Justice Jews” ranting and raving about Human Rights abuses by the Israeli Army when just over the hill, there are no Human Rights groups setting sail in a peace ship laden with “humanitarian” supplies for the slaughtered citizens of Syria, Libya, Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, Egypt, Tunisia, Sudan, etc. But, if a Jew has to defend him/herself against open terror under the guise of Humanitarian Aid (example Turkish IHH “Peace ship” Marmara overrun by Israeli commandos), these Jews are the first to scream “INJUSTICE”, “REPRESSION”, “OCCUPATION”!
It makes me sick. Appeasement and self-hate go together...
I disagree, Israel needs much more DIVERSITY and should be sure not to let anymore Jews immigrate as it is time to tear down that wall, remove the armed Israeli’s at the border and LET THEM IN!!!! Israel must join the World!
Is this not what the American Jews want for the good old USA? Ask Schumer???
True dat.
“American Jews so willing to cavort with their enemies”, you must be referring to the Jewish Communist that infested the US to cavort with Stalin and Mao and the current World Commies?? Read Dianne West’ new book, “American Betrayal....”
American Jews need to get over FDR, Democrats and WWII. Nazi’s were beaten mostly by American soldiers who, IMHO, would in large part be against secular liberalism.
We have become liberal trash
or more likely Barack Obama
Then there is NYC and Bloomberg and Weiner....... they can’t get over it any time soon. In the process of not getting over it they are recreating the process that caused the problem in the beginning.
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
