I've often wondered why Jews vote for liberals, when it's always the Republicans who are the strongest supporters of Israel. Clinton was ready to give Israel away to arafat, yet the Jews love him and his wife.

You wanna know why? It's because the fundamentalist Christians are aligned with the republicans. Plus, most Jews don't surf freerepublic.com, lucianne.com etc, and believe it or not, aren't aware that Israel's largest backers are acutaly these same people. A little PR to that end might help.

I'd also add that Most catholics vote Democrat despite Republicans being the PROLIFE party... Strange, eh?

Liberalism is so prevalent in most Jewish circles, that if the Jewish lobby had the opportunity to affect Israeli policy, they would require confiscation of all guns in Israel and removal of armed soldiers from the streets ... after all we dont want to antagonize the situation.

But seriously many of my fellow Jews distrust the Palestinians as vehemently as anyone, its just that the DemocRAT mindset has been ingrained into them for over 50 years ... I cant explain it, and they dont even realize the contradiction they live with.

As much as stereotypes are abhorred, many still think of conservatives and Republicans in the old trite images that we constantly have to correct.
