I have never understood Jewish American Liberalism.
In Israel, they design good guns and don’t take no crap.
Here is the reason:
There are no cowboys named Goldstein... And I am almost serious.
Then again, I don’t Understand American Christian Liberals.
In Israel, Jews are fighting for their lives.
In the US, liberal Jews are fighting for their Brie.
Some of us are armed, pro-guns, and have used them, including my son in Iraq, my late editor’s son in Israel (KIA), and a whole bunch of Jewish soldiers in Vietnam.
As a Russian Jewish emigre’ once told me about those Jews who didn’t view the Soviets as our enemies, “We too have our asses.” That applies to too many American Jews re Iran, Red China, Hugo Chavez, and the Palestinians.
The leftism of liberal Jews and some conservative Jews is due mainly to the success of Communist propaganda in the US over the past 90 years. They convinced a lot of people who hated the Czar that communists were their saviors and a whole bunch of people bought it, hook, line, and sickle. And still do, esp. in academia.
However, some are finally waking up and the shift will be noticeable in November.
And they understand the what it means to say “Never Again”.
And they understand what it means to say “Never Again”.
So many early Jewish immigrants identified rich (and not so rich) Republicans as their oppressors. I would think that image has never changed, even as many Jews moved into the ranks of the well-off.
