Good analysis. For many (perhaps a majority) secularized Jews, a kind of mushy, left-wing ideology has replaced Judaism as their faith. There remain, however, positive and increasingly strong bonds between Orthodox Jews and conservative Christians.

Many years ago Arthur Krock said, "..The only difference between the platform of the Democrat Party and Reform Judaism is the Holidays." Liberalism is a religion and a major religion at that.

Well it would be darned nice of observant Jews to repudiate the work of the Frankfurt School.

I'd say it's been that way for a while. I'm Christian and had to stand up for Israel a number of times while talking to American Jews. I'd have to say that I dislike the majority of American Jews that I have met. If we were to have a Jew-swap with Israel, the US would be that much stronger and Israel would fall within the week.

Not that it won't change but Prophecy rightly indicates that only a very small remnant in Israel will be true belivers in Jesus at the end. So this statement about American Christians being largely those who care about Israel is proportional to the dispersal worlwide who are the True Church as represented in Christian belief!

Good article. Many of us wonder why, with millions and millions of Christians worldwide, no one in the press thinks to ask Christians what they think about the destruction of their most Holy sites by Muslims in Israel. No outrage from the un-knowing press about sacred Judeo-Christian sites bulldozed and built over by Muslims, though Mohammed and his religion are 600 years younger than Christ, and over 3000 years younger than Abraham and Judaism. If the polls are correct and 80% of the press does not believe in God, we need some new journalists fast who know enough to ask the important questions and represent the majority of people in our nation.

These days, it seems US Christians care more about Israel than American Jews do.

Unfortunately this is somewhat true. But not entirely true.

Are they busy counting money??

[Cleburne]

But I thought all those horrible fundamentalist Christians were all neo-Nazis and hated Jews and Israel? You mean what the SPLC tells me may not be the whole truth? I'm shocked...

[boycott]

I think you're right. The liberal Jews think that Israel shouldn't defend itself. The liberal American Jew does a lot of harm to Israel.

The liberal Jews want to keep doves like Clinton and Gore in office. This compromises the security of the USA and Israel.

[monkeyshine]

This is not news to freepers. We've known this for years.

IMO some of the people in Israeli politics (leftists) believe that the lobbying/campaign contributions power of Jews in the U.S. force the U.S. government to back up/protect Israel, when in fact and in truth the best thing Israel has going for it, other than the love of HaShem, is the Christians in the U.S. who know the truth about who the Jews are.

[truth_seeker]

But while Jewish votes assure that New York's senators will always be demonstrably pro-Israel...

Or, insofar as Hillary kissed the terrorist's wife, and her husband pushed for Israel's suicide, I would reasonably conclude New York Jews pay little attention to FACTS, pertaining to the survival of Israel.

They are as poorly informed about reality, as your typical liberal voter, in spite of the generally accepted high intelligence of Jews, as a grouping.

In other words, the religion of liberalism trumps the welfare of their overseas co-religionists.

Jewish World Review On the Verge of Folding

[rebelsoldier]

Unfortunately, in my experience, most American Jews are left-wingers, neo-communists, and at the very center of developing and promulgating politically correct, anti-cultural, anti-American, and anti-social dogma that is designed to denounce, defame, and heap criticism on the very society in which they live. In this way they are not unlike American blacks in that their target of hostility and resentment isn't the land, places, and peoples that originally sold them down the river and abused them horribly, but the host nation they now live in. This apparent ingratitude and animus has generated extreme resentment towards all Jews thanks to these individuals, and this has rebounded on Israelis, who paradoxically, most American Jews detest and regard as religious extremists and a foreign oddity, and thus expendible. This is how a filthy, lying, crooked, bitch like Hillary Clinton who loves Palestinians can be supported and voted in by American Jews. It's because they are Jews in name only, and not much else.
