An overwhelming majority of American Jews believe that the goal of the Arabs "is not the return of occupied territories but rather the destruction of Israel," according to a recent poll released by the American Jewish Committee.
Approximately 76% of respondents in the AJC's fall 2010 Survey of American Jewish Opinion agreed with a question to that effect, while only 20% disagreed.
Meanwhile, 95% of the American Jews think Palestinians should be required to recognize Israel as a Jewish state in any future peace settlement.

Obama is more upfront
But there is no iota of difference between Obama and Bush/Rice’s policy vis a vis the Arab(Palestinian) war against Israel.
Both Bush and Obama follow the same policy: ie, always support the Arab demands.
Oh my, I can’t believe I repeat myself so much:) Good thing I got interrupted! Sorry.
I find nothing except the driving factor behind destroying Israel is islam. This should be noted and clarified as they are our enemy as well. Until islam is destroyed, completely, we will be in danger from it.
>>>More importantly, 100% of Muslims want to destroy Israel
You are wrong. There must be at least 5 Muslims in the Middle East who support Israel. I do not know why freepers exaggerate Muslim opposition to Israel (sarcasm).
Add the EuroXtians and maybe as well the rest of the world if they spoke honestly. IMO, only the U.S. Evangelicals, as a group, truly support Israel and its survival spiritually, monetarily and politically (and maybe selfishly)......at least for the time-being.

Absolutely 100% correct. No difference between Bush/Obama on policy. Condi was always an Arab sympathizer.

I think you mean Pam Geller.
Just saw a poll result indicating that O's approval rating among American Jews is down to 51%.

I really hope that Captain Obvious shows up somewhere in this thread.
Why is it less than 100%? Haven’t the Arabs made their objectives clear enough?
That the number is that low says something about the ability of people to evade unpleasant truths.
All it shows is that foreign policy isn’t the critical factor in Jewish voting... or for anyone’s voting, for that matter.
I mean, would you vote for a pro-Israel, pro-homosexual agenda, pro-abortion, high-tax, anti-Constitution politician over an anti-Israel, anti-homosexual agenda, anti-abortion, low-tax, pro-Constitution candidate?
In my life time the Korean War, the Cold War, Vietnam, the Iranian hostage crisis, Saddam's invasion of Kuwait, and 9-11 have all had decisive impacts on USA elections.
As to Jewish voting, the “NeoConservative” movement of the 1970’s was dominated by liberal Jewish intellectuals who rejected the pacifism and the Cold War appeasement of the Democratic Party.
Finally, except for Pat Buchanan, I can't think of any Conservative leader who is not assertively pro-Israel.
Philosophically, American Conservatism and vigorous support for Israel are inseparable.
Philosophically, the American Left and vigorous support for Palestinians are inseparable.
I can't imagine I will ever have to make a political choice between one side or the other.
Maybe not so much for conservatives. But consider Jewish liberals. They support a pro-homosexual agenda, are pro-abortion, and pro-large government.
And the only party in America that gives them that sort of agenda is the Democrap party. While it's true that they want to support Israel, they have to choose between a party that gives them the domestic policies they want and the foreign policy they hate, or a party that gives them the foreign policy they like and the domestic policy they hate.
Lieberman is a very good example of this. He was a Democrat, but could no longer stomach their foreign policies and so went Independent.
And for the rest, they are more willing to compromise on foreign policy than domestic policy, so they continue to vote Democrap. Kinda like the "Out of sight, out of mind" idea.
I’m stunned the number isn’t higher...
Sort of. He's an IINO. (99% RAT)
Which raises the question of what the 24 percent are smoking.
