The first Jewish candidate to get to the homestretch of a Democratic presidential primary is making it his business to move the party formally away from its support of Israel.
At least to the degree that President Obama hasnt already done so.
Senator Sanders nominees to the Democratic Partys platform committee include radical environmentalist, Bill McKibben; Native American activist, Deborah Parker; and muslim congressman Keith Ellison of Minnsota.
The big news, though, is that Mr. Sanders surrogates include pro-Palestinian activist James Zogby and leftist professor Cornel West, two of the harshest critics of Israel on the national scene.
Its not my intention here to suggest that any of these worthies ought to be excluded from any Partys political debate. But what does it say about Mr. Sanders that these are his platform writers?
The anti-Israel edge to Mr. Sanders surrogates is so pronounced that even the New York Times warned that a bitter divide over the Middle East could threaten Democratic Party unity.
Nor does this seem to be unintended. West, veteran of Harvard and Princeton, and Zogby, head of the Arab American Institute, were themselves quoted by the Times as vowing to overturn the partys lopsided support for Israel.
One of Hillary Clinton's nominees is former State Department aide Wendy Sherman.
Mrs. Shermans claim to fame or infamy is as co-author of the articles of appeasement on Iran.

If Sanders were the nominee the majority of Jewish Dems would still vote Democrat..sad but true
With friends like Bernie, Israel doesn’t need enemies.
Israel is forever!
Has it ever been firmly established what Bernie's attitude is regarding God's existence? I'll bet that *I* know what it is.
Comrade Bernie turns out to be a Kapo!
Obama has made it acceptable and fashionable within the Democratic Party and the chattering classes to be an open anti Zionist. This is his “legacy”. Yet at this time the significance of this is lost on most.
Cornell West is a spittle-spraying racist. Why would anyone look to him for strategy or guidance?
The heathens (Democrats) may as well deny Israel, they did the same to God Himself at the 2012 Democrat convention.
Some people might even dislike him because of his POLISH background. Who even knows what biases some people bring to the table.
Having visited Israel in 2011 I could SEE that the Israeli Jews, Muslims and Christians DO "live and let live." They often even COOPERATE.
Bottom line: NO ONE can "explain" the middle east. One has to visit it, hear it, smell it, see it and taste it. All unique.
I would NOT want to live there but EVERY Christian OUGHT to save his/her pennies and take a tour of the Holy Land. Well worth it!!
That is one of many reasons why we must defend the Second Amendment.
Bernie the Communist shows his true colors. Red red and red. An apparently sincere and fairly likeable old guy who’s seriously missed the boat politically and spiritually. Pray he finds God ( or at least recovers some good sense) while he still can.
Who even knows what biases some people bring to the table.
The one thing we can be sure of is that EVERYONE
brings some bias to the table.
These communistic Islamonazi- loving infiltrators “ have a ton of foreign and enemy $$
$ behind them ( Just look at the most recent $100,000,000.00 Hillary’s collected from Arabian peninsula Islamonazi dictators). And they’ve seized control of the D party machine apparatus. The D party machine is now openly anti- American, anti-Christian and anti- Jewish As well as against liberty and your personal freedom and economic opportunity It ain’t our parents’ D party anymore. That’s for sure.
Trump ‘won’t pressure Israel’ to act against its interests

They're not drifting, they're following the course set by Obama
That's a fac, jack.
We learn to deal with all those biases or we ignore those folks whose biases are just too much. There have been a few here for me...just a few. :o)
