Column One: A prayer for 5772

Upon his return to Ramallah from New York, Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas was greeted by a crowd of several thousand well-wishers. They applauded him for his speech at the UN. There, Abbas erased Jewish history from the Land of Israel, denied Israel’s right to exist and pledged his commitment to establish a racist Palestinian state ethnically cleansed of all Jews.

Many of Abbas’s supporters in Ramallah held posters of US President Barack Obama. On them Obama was portrayed as a monkey. The caption read, “The First Jewish President of the United States.”

The fact that the Palestinians from Fatah and Hamas alike are Jew-hating racists should surprise no one who has been paying a modicum of attention to the Palestinian media and general culture. Since the PA was established in 1994 in the framework of the peace process between Israel and the PLO, it has used the media organs, schools and mosques it controls to spew out a constant flow of anti-Semitic propaganda. Much of the Jew-hating bile is indistinguishable from anti-Jewish propaganda published by the Nazis.

As Israel is increasingly isolated and Jews worldwide are under attack, it is my prayer for the coming year that the American Jewish community will come to terms with a difficult reality and the choices it entails, and act with the majority of their fellow Americans to defend Israel and combat anti-Semitism in the US and throughout the world.

All I can say is that American Jews have a suicide wish!

Ping to an impressive and important article by Caroline Glick emphasizing the irrationality of the Jewish left in the US regarding the Islamic threat to Jewish survival and other antisemitism in the US. She presents polling data which have been pretty well known to conservatives for quite some time, but which tend to be covered up in Jewish Left circles because it demonstrates how oblivious to stark reality they are.

A good part of the American Jewish left does, but not those American Jews here on FR.

The super guilt-feeling that dominates American Jewry (without any connection to having fault...) that motivated to vote for the ‘first African-American as president’ should be channeled to Jewish victims of the Islamo-Arab Goliath.

Absolutely. That's the major issue that Caroline Glick is presenting in the posted article.
