Jewish Group Vows to Protest Trump's AIPAC Speech
Haaretz.com ^ | 03/17/2016 | The Forward and Sarah Wildman

Posted on 03/17/2016 8:40:21 AM PDT by GIdget2004

Donald Trump's appearance at the upcoming AIPAC Policy Conference in Washington has at least one Jewish group planning to protest.

The group of professionals and clergy, which calls itself "Come Together Against Hate," says that Trump and his hate speech have no place at the annual meeting of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

"We are committed to saying that Donald Trump does not speak for us or represent us, and his values are not AIPAC's values," wrote Rabbis David Paskin of West Palm Beach Florida, and Jesse Olitzky of South Orange, New Jersey in announcing the action.

"They are not the values of the Jewish community. They are not the values of our founders' vision of an America where all citizens are 'endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.'"

The group, which has a growing growing Facebook presence, will distribute stickers and flyers at the conference, organizers said. They also plan a silent walk-out during Trump's speech, planned for Monday evening (others, they say, will simply not attend); and a simultaneous group Torah teach-in.

Those people are so ignorant.
Trying to assign hate where there is none.

And when the money starts rolling in, they’ll be begging to jump on the band wagon. They will absolutely change their tune.

I wonder how many of his haters have listened to his speeches vs the number who have listened to someone else’s explanation of how someone else interpret one sentence from an hour of him talking.

Sure, he’s said some things you can be mad at. He’s also talked for 100s (maybe 1000s) of hours over the last 8 months - talked with some notes, not read a prepared focus-group-tested speech. And the haters focus on 5-10 sentences. Reasonable people can certainly say they were horrible sentences. But, do they understand all of what Trump is saying on those topics? And everything he’s saying on all topics. You can still hate him understanding all of it but I doubt most haters have a clue.

Take it from a Jewish conservative:

Most Jews are morons when it comes to politics. Ignore Leftist rabbis, because their flocks believe not in G-d, but in the false “god” of Leftism...and that’s where their bread is buttered.

Frankly, if you piss off groups like this, you’re doing something right. If you can’t piss them off...I don’t want you to be the local dog-catcher.

See my #25. Seems like we’re kindred souls.

I cannot begin to even put into words how incredibly aggravating it is to have self-hating idiots like this in the family. Fortunately, my parents got away from that nonsense, and 2 uncles who were big libs 40 years ago have gained wisdom as they’ve aged. But some of my cousins...no brains at all. One belongs in a rubber room, he’s so off the walls, bat-shit crazy regarding politics.

No matter what the issue, if you disagree with any Leftist opinion, you are a hater. And Big Media promotes this to the nth degree.

The rabbi says himself all CITIZENS are endowed with rights. I don’t recall Trump saying anything offensive about our citizens.

Liberal cognitive dissonance. They vote for the party the supports the Iran nuclear deal but protest the guy that wants to destroy ISIS.

Rabbis David Paskin of West Palm Beach Florida, and Jesse Olitzky of South Orange, New Jersey

are not rabbis.

They are common leftwing operatives.


There are many liberal, socialist clergy in mainline churches, that play the same role. They have weaved themselves into powerful positions, and then little by little subverted Christianity.

This all started back in the 60’s. How else do you explain how the plain word of scripture can be abridged, changed, negated, and explained away by those in powerful positions of authority in the liberal churches and synagogues.

Power flows from the top down in these churches and synagogues. As long as members look to those in authority to dictate, rather than the Bible itself, problems will continue.

They teach love, charity, forgiveness, prosperity, but no repentance. For without repentance, there is no forgiveness. Without the blood, there is no forgiveness for sin. This applies to both Jew and Christian.

These clergy, both rabbis and pastors, have long departed from the truth. They have itching ears that seek only those in agreement with their liberal views, and denounce those who quote God's Word as heretics and Bible thumpers.

I have the same problem with those who throw out the Old Testament (Torah and Prophets), and look only to the New Testament to establish their churches. How do you build a Christian Church without the foundation of the Patriarchs, the Prophets?

The Gospels and the rest of the New Testament continually point to Yeshua’s fulfillment and the future of the Church, and of Israel. The Apostles used the Septuagint in their preaching. The early church observed Passover and the Jewish Festivals.

It was only when the church in Rome became powerful enough (with the Roman Empire's support), that a dictate came down to not celebrate Passover, the Sabbath, and the Jewish Festivals. This group then started to dictate the view that Christians were the real Israel, and hence by their authority as God's voice on earth, change and reinterpret His Word.

We have the same thing today. Dictates that we must conform to the current world view, and its debauchery. They preach acceptance of sin, and call good evil, and evil good. They protest those who stand against that which would destroy our nation, and support those who bring chaos.

Why is that?——at 93 I never understood why Jews would continually vote this way after WW2—

You have to understand their religion, that of the Talmud that dictates every aspect of their lives.

These clergy, both rabbis and pastors, are ATHEISTS.

They work their way into phony “religious” positions to sell the standard, tired leftwing agenda.

As a Jew, it gives me no joy to say that these gaggle of self-hating Jews is simply the most disgusting and abased thing I’ve ever encountered short of Nazism and the tsunami of anti-semitism sweeping the world. They already voted, in unison, for probably the most overtly anti-Israel administration in US history and remain too stupid to even figure out they did so. A total embarrassment.

Because they ARE NOT Jews—

They are leftwing atheists.

The “Reform” rabbis and synagogues that these clowns represent

have no connection left with the actual religion of Judaism.

Not surprising, most Jews are foaming and frothing at the mouth leftists who hate Trump. You see that every day on TV, the recycled Trotskyites, known as neo-con artists are at the forefront of #NeverTrump.
