You are drawing the conclusion that because Jews vote Liberal, they do not support the war.

That's a classic case of believing that people of similar ethnicity all share a group-think mentality...you are simply wrong. Lieberman is a Liberal, and is also all for the war.

That's the point I mader to refute your generalization.

You are mistaking an educated observation with stereotyping. There is a small percentage of Conservative Jews who supported the war all along. Most (and by "most" I mean "just about all") Jews in this country are very liberal. They did not support the war, because they would not support George Bush if he had a plan for destroying an asteroid that was hurtling towards the Earth.

Again, I am not trying to hurt your feelings, but don't you see the flaw in your logic? You can't present an exception or two to the rule and think that refutes it. As I pointed out earlier. Colin Powell and Condolezza rice were i favor of the war all along. So all black were, right? Wrong.

Additionally, your obession with Isreal is equally confused. If Jews in general cared about Isreal, they would vote republican more often. Instead, in NY, they overwhelmingly voted for Hillary Clinton, after she hugged and kissed Arafat's wife.

You, yourself may or may not be Jewish. I suspect you are not. If not, then your attempt pollitical correctness is misguided. Conservative Jews themselves are generally furious with their more populous liberal countrymen.
