CRUZ: More Than Ever We Must Further Strengthen Our Bond With The Nation Of Israel

HOUSTON, Texas — U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, released the following statement in observance of Rosh Hashanah:

“Shanah Tovah. Happy new year to our Jewish brothers and sisters observing Rosh Hashanah. I wish you a time of meaningful prayer, reflection, and celebration.

“The Talmud cites two reasons to sound the Shofar (ram’s horn) on Rosh Hashanah. One is to accept God’s dominion as King. The other is to recall the weeping of Sisera’s mother, who wept for her son who went missing in battle. It is these two qualities of the Jewish people – religious faith and generous humanity – which have made such a tremendous impact on our civilization.

“I pray that the coming year – 5776 – will be one of peace, prosperity and abundant blessing for the Jewish people and for the nation of Israel. Now more than ever we must further strengthen our unshakable bond to confront the many challenges that threaten our future and our survival.”

At what point does supporting Israel, coming from a politician in a campaign, become pandering. The all say the same things, both parties. Does this get Cruz more money, or any, from Adelson, etc.?

When you know they don't mean it.

Cruz means it.

He's repeatedly called for the US embassy to be moved to Jerusalem. He also called the US embassy in Havana a 'slap in the face' for Israel.

Voting for the Corker bill wasn't the way to do it Ted, but you knew that.

That vote could result in Israeli blood on your hands Ted...YOU'RE A FRAUD!

This is why I will not be voting for Ted Cruz, notwithstanding his undeniable merits. The USA was not placed in this world to serve the state of Israel. I don’t want any president who doesn’t know where his duty lies.

Israel is one of our closest and most reliable allies. That is enough for me.

Doesn’t the Talmud also call Jesus an evil man, a magician, a bastard born of adultery...?

When are you leaving for Europe?

To: Pirate Ragnar

No need. You don’t have to be a European to know that the Talmud is filled with anti-Christian screed. Cruz can support Israel, on moral, strategic, even Biblical grounds, without stooping to the level of pandering — and a Christian legitimizing a text that blasphemes and casts lies against the name of Christ is most assuredly pandering.

Looks like we can add antisemites to the anti Cruz crowd.

Their candidate must be very proud.

Ted...YOU'RE A FRAUD!

You come to every Cruz thread to spout your venom.
Do you really think you're convincing anyone or are you just happy to be an asshole?

You are mistaken. All candidates do NOT, and certainly not all the Dems.

You haven't received this week's fresh anti-Cruz talking points yet, it's obvious.
