Chickens for KFC has a nice ring to it. I'd also speculate that most of the leftists, not necessarily the terrorists, are as pro abortion as they are pro gay. Yet they support a palestinian society where abortion is illegal except for mothers life, and both Dr and mother go to jail. Though mom's sentence can be reduced if the abortion was for honor. Imagine what the family does to that mom when she finishes her term. Perhaps hatred for Jews and Israel overcome these policies, but the underlying objective of these terrorists is the destruction of the US. Israel is just on the way to final success. Related threads

While I still worry about Bibi & Company giving away victory (as Israel almost always has done),
it was a spectacularily-delivered speech and it struck quite a number of the correct chords well.
More standing ovations than any speech in known Congressional history. Congress was literally leaping out of their seats to give Bibi standing ovations every minute. (More exercise than a year’s worth of army boot camp training, ha!)
While Nancy Pelousy, VP Harris (who’s job it was to attend and preside) and a few of the other extremist communists and Nazis made asses of themselves boycotting and insulting the guest speaker with lies. (How downright embarrassing for them!)
Rarely has the battle between Good and Evil been so boldly and starkly presented. Netanyahu invocation of Churchill was most appropriate.

Looks like a great speech to remind and educate people and Congress Critters what Israel really is.
I would have added that 60% of Israels Jewish population are from the Arab world and other places that are not Europe. 800000 Jews were evicted from Arab nations after 1948, Israels war of Independence. They left behind billions in assets and property
I would have also mentioned that 2 million Arab Muslims live inside Israel proper. NOT West Bank etc.

Approximately 40% to 45% of Israeli Jews are of Mizrahi descent, which includes those whose ancestors came from Arab nations. Mizrahi Jews primarily hail from Middle Eastern and North African countries, including Iraq, Yemen, Syria, and Morocco, among others.
The Jewish population in Israel is diverse, with about 32% identifying as Ashkenazi, whose ancestors are primarily from Central and Eastern Europe. Overall, the Jewish demographic in Israel consists of various ethnic groups, reflecting a complex history of migration and cultural integration.
In summary, while exact percentages can vary, a significant portion of Israeli Jews, particularly those of Mizrahi origin, have roots in Arab nations.
______________________________
Mizrahi Jews, who are descendants of Jewish communities from the Middle East, North Africa, and Central Asia, constitute a significant portion of the Jewish population in Israel. According to the 2009 Statistical Abstract of Israel, approximately 50.2% of Israeli Jews are of Mizrahi or Sephardi origin. More recent statistics from 2018 indicate that about 45% of Jewish Israelis identify as either Mizrahi or Sephardic.
This demographic highlights the diverse backgrounds of Israeli Jews, with Mizrahi Jews playing a crucial role in the cultural and social fabric of the country.
Maybe this is why the Jewish vote is heavy towards the Democrats. They know they have the Republicans and the Democrats, by not showing up yesterday and chastising a beautiful speech by Netanyahu, are left to be chased by the Jewish vote.
If the Jewish voters continue to stay strong with the Democrats, the Republicans are foolish to offer the Jewish voters anything in return.
I believe in protecting Israel but not if it costs me the America I grew up in due to Democratic leadership.
