Two delegates to the Democratic Party’s platform drafting committee — one appointed by Hillary Clinton and the other by Bernie Sanders — said the platform must reflect the hardships faced both by Israelis and Palestinians.
[Reps. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., and Luis Gutierrez, D-Ill., appointed by Sanders and Clinton respectively, said] “Palestinians struggle under an unjust occupation that deprives them of the rights, opportunities and independence that they deserve. That is the reality of a conflict that has gone on for far too long and at a terrible cost.”
The statement was released by J Street, the liberal Middle East policy group that favors including language sympathetic to Palestinians and Israelis in the platform. The political action committee affiliated with J Street has endorsed both Ellison and Gutierrez for reelection.
Ellison and two other appointees by Sanders, the Independent senator from Vermont who had run an insurgent campaign from the left until Clinton secured the nomination earlier this month, have pressed hard for a platform that reflects Palestinian as well as Israeli aspirations. Previous platforms focus almost exclusively on U.S. support for Israel and back Palestinian statehood primarily as a means of keeping Israel safe.

Just as Obama Hussein's Jewish vote fell to the lowest level in what was 24 years in 2012, it will only go lower. Many Jews are in Florida, PA suburbs, MI suburbs, OH suburbs, etc. Clearly, the reason the Democrat won't call Muslim Islam terror what it is is for one thing; to get Islam and far-left voters (and illegal immigrants too). They can have that; Trump will take AMERICAN voters.
Israelis, Jews have no friends in the dem party.
Let’s face it. They are forgetting exactly WHO owns the Israel real estate (past, present and future) and for that matter everything. Israel is not for sale or to be divided by anyone. Perhaps they haven’t read the end of the Story.
Three traitors - Gutierrez (FALN supporter); Ellison - black extremist Moslem; J Street - KAPOS and Kimpel the Fool.
Some of us Jews have our eyes wide open and can smell a leftist rat a mile away. Right now the stench is overwhelming. DEMORATS - Don’t let your future depend on them!

I’m convinced that one of our ancestors made a Faustian bargain: Jews will be leaders in the sciences, literature, finance, entertainment, etc., but will be as dumb as a box of rocks when it comes to matters of self-preservation.
only 68% voted for Obama in 2012, down from 77% in 2008. The trend is only going down, especially as Jews get left out of the safe spaces, trigger warnings, and the generally protected and perfectly behaving non-white people classes ideal that has overtaken the Democrat Party.
