Anti-terror Law Worries Jewish Activists...

Jerusalem Post ^

I never trust anyone or anything that labels itself 'activist.'

That reeks of Leftism.

The Greenies, PETA, Jane Fonda, Tom Hayden, Bill Maher....ACTIVISTS.

The broad language has given pause to some Jewish organizational leaders and pro-Israel advocates in particular, who fear that countries like Iran and Syria, with which the US has been talking about a possible anti-terrorism partnership, may benefit from an easing of US sanctions or even direct US assistance in return for only minimal action.

TRANSLATION: Pro-Israel activists are concerned that for once, AMERICAN interests might be served independent and exclusive of ISRAELI interests.

IOW: It is ALWAYS all about Israel with these folks.

TRANSLATION: YOU are unable to curb your dislike of Jews, and you continue to slander, lie and show your animus, by painting all Israelis as one.

You KNOW that there are Americans who have voiced the same concerns. Try and rein yourself in a bit. You are shaming yourself.

[veronica]

By the way, you never responded to my post of the USS Liberty survivor excoriating people who use the Liberty event to spread anti-Semitism. What say you?

TRANSLATION: YOU are unable to curb your dislike of Jews,...

I have no dislike of Jews. I DO have a dislike of people who are sheltered and protected by this nation, who instead of faithfully returning that favor with their own devotion, choose instead to lavish all their attention on a foreign state.

I suggest it is YOU who can't see beyond your "anti-semitism" bogey-man to the truth of my worlds. Most Americans support Israel, but NOT at the expense of America.

Uhhh...out of curiosity, where did the poster say he "hated Jews."

[Illbay]

But I did respond (even though the post you mention wasn't even directed at me).

Go back and look again. You'll find it, I put it up just this morning.

BY WHICH you IMPLY THAT American Jews support Israel at the expense of America.

Your veiled libels against the loyalty of American Jews may slip by others here, but they don't fool me.

Very few people come out and say "I hate Jews." Not in public anyway. It's in there, subtly. Oh yeah.

When I worked for Reagan and Bush I was not working for Israel. You get off your duff and work for the Republican Party...ever?

[LurkedLongEnough]

Since we're checking under robes now, hey, what's under that yarmulke, anyway?

[maestro]

Israel says, 'Never Again'!
The Goy powers say, 'One More Time'!

This bill worries me too. Ask yourself, if it were Bubba in the White House and a Dem controlled Congress, would YOU want this bill passed? I doubt it. So why are we now on board with something simply because Republicans want it? Last time I checked the main legal document for this country is the Constitution/Bill of Rights, NOT the Republican Party Plank and Supporting Ideological Doctrine.

[Blade]

So now Bush is contemplating military aid to Syria and Iran?

That is insane. This pandering to the Arab world has got to stop.

[LarryLied]

(another poster implied). . .American Jews support Israel at the expense of America.

Only anecdotal evidence, of course, but there are many here in Palm Beach County who, in my opinion, have supported neither. Think they are coming around however. Let's hope it sticks.

Since Syria and Iran are neighbors to Israel and we are not, your concerns are quite expected .... It's good that we are now more aware of the importance of fighting Terrorism, it's bad how we became so aware. But now that we are "in the boat", protecting our shores alone is not what this is all about.
