Why do Jews still support Obama?
BizPac Review ^ | July 25, 2011 | Alan Bergstein

Posted on 07/25/2011 4:51:11 AM PDT by T.O.K.

I’ve been puzzled ever since Obama first started campaigning for president. Why do Jews support him? It cannot be their love for learning influenced by his great grades in any of his colleges. He has refused to disclose them. So it’s, Oh! Who cares about them? “He had to do well to become editor and chief of the Harvard Law Review,” they chirp. Actually, he was the president of the HLR, and he was appointed to that position. It couldn’t be because of his great record in the Illinois Senate. He never initiated a bill and merely voted a majority of times “present.” It couldn’t be because of his support for Israel throughout the years. He was close friends with Louis Farrakhan, Father Pfleger and Rashid Khalidi, and he attended the meetings of Palestinian radicals in Chicago.

I am not Jewish, but I am a strong supporter of our allied country. I am forever trying to understand why being a liberal Democrat means sacrificing something as important as support for ones heritage? Why does Obama get a pass from the Jewish community?

The same reason that Jews in Germany went along with Hitler. The wanted to be the “good German Jew”. We remember how well that worked out.

I have a relative who hates Israel and Jews with a passion and voted for Obama. He thinks it should be called Palestine and Jews should get out. I think he got his moneys worth. I think they, the Jew haters and the Lib Jews, both view themselves as enlightened and tolerant.... Progressives. When Iran punts a Nuke into Israel, they’ll all blame Einstein.

Because Jews hate Christians, who MAY want to convert them, WAY more than they hate Muslims, who want to KILL them!

Jews are taught from the cradle that Republicans are right-wing AND that the right-wing is one step away from morphing into Naziism.

Most Jews believe this to their core...to the point that they will vote in droves for a confirmed disciple of the Jew-hating “Reverand” Wright.

I don't think Jews in Germany supported Hitler and certainly not to the extent that Jews in America support Obama (who may facilitate Hitler's work against the Jews in the Middle East btw....).

I wish someone would tell my co religionists that Liberalism is not a religion and it is not even in accord with the Jewish religion with its Leviticus saying about homosexuality and its Genesis 16:23 remarks about the Arabs.

I also think that my fellow Jews should not pat themselves over the back to much with their civil rights work. They were real meddlers back then and antagonized the races when the races in the south were finally coming together. If there is any of my tribe whose heart still bleeds for the black man, then put that... bleeding to good use by supporting war hero, Allen West or presidential candidate, Herman Cain.

p.s. As a sidebar, it wasn't for nothing that then candidate Ronald Reagan called the 1964 Civil Rights act a bad piece of legislation.

Your inner skinhead is showing through. Just read "Elders of Zion", eh?

For the record, Jews do not hate Christians, in fact PM Benjamin Netanyahu recently said that Israel is very thankful for the American evangelical community.

And, for the record, for 1,800 years it was "Christians" who persecuted, raped, pillaged, and murdered Jews, while Jews living in Muslim lands were largely left alone.

I really think it is “Please kill us last.” They try hard to show their most likely oppressor and murderer that they are fiercely loyal and shouldn’t be killed or oppressed too severely.

Most Jews are socialists, whether they realize it or not.

I’m Catholic, but attended a coworker’s son’s Bar Mitzvah service a couple of years ago.

From the ‘pulpet’ (or whatever the Jewish equivalent is) came an endless liberal rant. Karl Rove’s name came up frequently. Even heard sympathy for the ‘plight of the Palestinians’.

With this one experience, I’m left with the impression that the liberal slant comes from the Jewish leadership

With the notable exception of Lenin (Vladimir Ulyanov), most of the leading Communists who took control of Russia in 1917-20 were Jews. Leon Trotsky (Lev Bronstein) headed the Red Army and, for a time, was chief of Soviet foreign affairs. Yakov Sverdlov (Solomon) was both the Bolshevik party’s executive secretary and — as chairman of the Central Executive Committee — head of the Soviet government. Grigori Zinoviev (Radomyslsky) headed the Communist International (Comintern), the central agency for spreading revolution in foreign countries. Other prominent Jews included press commissar Karl Radek (Sobelsohn), foreign affairs commissar Maxim Litvinov (Wallach), Lev Kamenev (Rosenfeld) and Moisei Uritsky.6

What about American Jews supporting Hitler?

As far as I can tell, there are enough baby-killing, Israel hating "secular jews" to screw up the whole demographic. The decent, conservative, real Jews should be loudly repudiating the disgraceful persona of their "brethren"

I wish someone would tell my co religionists that Liberalism is not a religion

Of course it is, complete with top leaders such as algor, obama, Oprah and terd kennedy. The regular clergy are psychiatrists and psychologists. The tenets of the liberalism are based totally on junk-science faith such as global warming, environmentalism or junk-policy faith, such as Marxism.

it wasn't for nothing that then candidate Ronald Reagan called the 1964 Civil Rights act a bad piece of legislation.

And your details?

This endless fascination of the Jew vote. I would say who cares, but for some reason many people do.

I’ve been trying to figure this out for years. I’ve asked Jewish people why they seem to have propensity for cozying up to the very people who will eventually annihilate them.

The only response (it was certainly not an answer) was “its a tribal thing”.

For what it’s worth here’s my take:

1. Jews have been persecuted for eons. This has led to self defense behavior which includes keeping your enemies close and going along to get along. The WWII lesson seems to be totally forgotten.

2. Jews, because they have been persecuted, tend to circle the wagons for protection. They live in imposed or self imposed ghettos or communes where it’s all for one and one for all. Very similar to Marxist communes. Thus, they’re preconditioned to accept communal Utopian ideologies. The Israeli kibbutz is organized around the Marxist ideal.

3. Jews want desperately to be thought of as socially advanced and caring people. I believe this need is what drives many Jews into being care givers—doctors, dentists, psychiatrists etc. Unfortunately this also draws them to Utopian ideologies like Marxism. One of the left’s aliases is “progressive”. It perfectly captures the Jewish mindset.

Certainly some Jews understand perfectly well the threats facing them. But they are constrained from speaking out for fear of being ostracized by the larger Jewish community. It seems the larger Jewish community only stirs itself to fight when it is on the brink of annihilation.
