It seems like a lot of Jewish groups try to see the good in everybody.

While that’s admirable, i’ts not healthy or realistic.

ANYONE who thinks that Israel rolling out the red carpet and showing its great democracy was gonna matter AT ALL to these women is incurably naive.

It’s safer to be Jewish and naive in the US.

Israel is afforded no such luxury with enemies all around them.

The last thing they needed was these yahoos stirring the pot for Palestinians

[datricker]

And most people who consider themselves Jewish will still vote for the Democrats

[I cannot think of a name]

For a long time I have believed that American society is a corrupting influence. It is never more obvious than in American Jews.

Luckily the people in Israel still realize that those that compromise their values for peace will soon have neither.

While there’s some truth to that, don’t forget that there were Jews in both Lenin’s and Hitler’s governments...

I don’t see why Israeli Jews should let American Nazis and islamonazis into their country.

I wouldn’t.

” there were Jews in both Lenin’s and Hitler’s governments..”

The Jews paid a high price to learn the cost of compromise. But at least the ones in Israel learned - the ones in America either never knew or forgot. And they seem to forget more each year - no matter how bad the democraps screw them.

Yeah that’s not gonna change under Trump.

But the Jewish vote doesn’t really swing any states in the POTUS race.

The swing states where Jewish population percentage is higher than 2:

Florida: 3.0%
Nevada: 2.5%
Pennsylvania: 2.3%

The dems candidate is only getting 70 percent of that 2 or 3 percent so they are Not the reason we win or lose these states. IMHO

Local politics, that’s a different story.

Though Hasidim here in NYC put Giuliani over the top to defeat Dinkins

[jughandle]

Is this the same story/trip last week that one of them was trying desperately to visit her grandmother and told us Israel said no?

[gibsonguy]

These are the Jesws that led the other Jews onto the trains.

[TalBlack]

The Left are always saying that our side standing up for itself is wrong. If we try it they call us intolorant. It is notable however that they have successfully advance their own brand of ABSOLUTE intolarance by charging intolorance to otheres. THEY are intolorant and so must we be.

"A good-faith visit to Israel is the best way to be exposed to its democracy, complexities, and range of views.

They've been exposed to the U.S.'s "democracy", complexities, and range of views for some time but they still hate it.

[atc23]

I’ve met Jews in the US that were holocaust deniers - democrat party over Judaism- every time.

Far left US Jews don’t consider Hasidim enlightened and vice versa

it is stunnig how times have changed since 1960, when the movie Exodus was released. You could find recordings of Ernest Gold's "Theme from Exodus" on countless LPs from the soundtack album to Manotvani to Ferranti and Teicher. Andy Williams had a big hit with a song version of the theme called "This Land is Mine". Now the left compares Israel to Nazi Germany...

[Mr. Jeeves]

Surprising is how quickly major American Jewish organizations—those one would most expect to defend Israel—jumped to condemn its decision, arguing that it should have rolled out the red carpet for the two congresswomen.

It's not surprising at all - these organizations may love the concept of Israel but can't stand the realities that brought into existence the Netanyahu government.

My Jewish friends from Brooklyn maybe aren’t the typical bunch. I dunno.

They are white and blue collar but most of the parents are/were blue collar. They are right of center, thought not as strongly as us but GOOD ENOUGH.

Down to earth, great people and some of their parents are SO NICE to me.

It’s like being in an Italian home but I can’t understand the second language this time :)

And I don’t know any Hasidim but their neighborhood on State Island is immaculate, I can’t recall the last time I saw one on the front page for murder or assault and their internal ways of handling things are their business.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Most of our “Jewish” groups are liberal or leftist so don’t count on them to support Trump, Netanyahu, Israel or the Torah.

They are 1930’s - type Jews: The Germans (Palestinians, Omar, Tlaib, AOC) are good people and won’t hurt us because we are “Good Germans”.

How did “Good Germans” work out for German Jews in the 1930’s and 40’s? Not so well as I recall. My relatives were slaughtered in Lemberg/Lvov by the “Good Germans”.

Just a word to my fellow stupid liberal Jews, “Lemming is not kosher so you shouldn’t act like them if you want to survive”.
