“This is not going to persuade Jews. Republicans have GOT to stop trying to win the Jewish vote. It’s not going to happen.”

Conservatives such as myself have argued for Israel for years. Frankly, I find the whole thing disappointing, given that I am not even Jewish, I have had a whole lot better concern by all I have written and said regarding Israel. But the sad story is that there will be some professed “Christians” and some professed “Jews” who will be open enemies to God in the last days.

Another way of saying this is that there are Ruth Grubers and Oscar Schindlers (a Jew and a non-Jew who both worked to save people from the Holocaust) But there will also be those, both Christian and Jew, who try to throw examples of Democracy in a savage world (Israel) under the bus for the sake of appeasing the radical Islam, effectively giving a win to the ideologies of Osama bin Laden, Yasir Arafat, et al.

Supporting Israel to the hilt is fine if that is what you believe, just don't expect to win over the Jewish vote that way. Particularly outside of Israel, significant majorities of Jews will always vote secular progressive and support socialist party's. We are not just talking about slim majorities here, it is huge majorities of Jews that vote this way in most places. As I said previously, it was not difficult for the Germans to link Jews and Communism. That stereotype already existed in European's minds because of all the Jews in socialist/communist party's, that had surrounded Lenin and that were in radical left European trade unions.

Many believe that Jews act this way because of past persecution. They are afraid of the prevailing majority religion in virtually all countries and vote for strong central governments that they believe can protect them. In this country Jews are a big part of far left organizations like the ACLU, People for the American Way, etc.
