No argument there, friend...I was not defending this commie, just giving a reason he would be pandering. And he really IS a commie.

According to an edited audio recording obtained by the site (below), de Blasio said that "part of his job description is to defend Israel"

Wow, that must be an interesting Oath of Office. I thought he was just supposed to take care of NYC.

Middle East and terrorism, occasional political and Jewish issues Ping List. High Volume

If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

The mayor should worry about protecting the citizens of NYC from street thugs before he worries about defending Israel.

Telling the crowd in front of him what they want to hear. Standard politics.

New York Mayor Bill de Blasio gave a heartfelt speech praising Israel at a private gala event hosted by AIPAC at the Hilton hotel in midtown Manhattan Thursday night, the local website Capital New York reported.

Wonder why he didn't say anything like that during the long mayoral campaign. Don't expect a leftist like Comrade DeBlasio to have any heartfelt love or appreciation for Israel nor for Jewish interests in general. Seems like this story may have been distorted by "Capital New York" (whatever the heck that is) and left-leaning Ha'aretz in Israel for propaganda purposes.

For some strange reason, it seems only to take a soothing word - false though it may be - or vague promise to garner the great majority of American Jewish votes for the most vile of Israel haters in politics.

I agree with you on that, except that the once great majority of Jewish votes for the most vile of Israel haters (i.e., the doctrinaire lefties, or, with few exceptions, the Demonrats) is gradually shrinking. There will come a time when that great majority won't be a majority at all - if we still have free and fair elections in the US, that is.

Bill the Bolshevik is a stalking horse for Hillary. His goal: distance the PIAPS from Obama, portray her as a moderate, obliterate her anti-Israel Foreign policy as Sec of State, and keep the Jewish community of NY in line for Hillary! 2016.

It’s demographics. Jews are either getting more religious or assimilating ‘til they no longer regard themselves as Jewish. Those who are more religious have more kids and move further right. So time is on the side of common sense.

“part of his job description is to defend Israel”, except not with guns because those are dangerous and the average person has no business owning one and the UN should ban personal individual possession and international sale and transport of guns.
