"nothing in common with jews on the left."

what if "jews on the left" are not really jews? similarly, what if "christians on the left" are not really christians? seems that many people hide behind religious labels so that they might get away with many things, one of which is full-fledged comittment to socialist revolution; they call it "social justice".

Well he discussed that a little bit as well--some of them are religious Jews, like a Joe Lieberman, but many of them are Jews in Name Only--from Jewish ancestry.

Christian is areligious term. If someone born into a Christian family becomes a muslim he ceases being Christian. Since Jews are both a nation and religion, one doesn't stop being Jewish if they become apostate.

Jews are attracted to left wing causes.

During the 1930s through the 1950s the percentage of Jews in the Communist Party U.S.A. was considerably higher that its percentage of the U.S. population. At the same time Stalin was imprisoning and killing Jews in the U.S.S.R.

American Jews are much more likely to be upset because some small southern town has a nativity in a city park or some minister says a prayer at a football game that if a terrorist bomber kills 100 Israeli citizens.
