[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand American Jews. Why are you so obsessed with Israel when you don’t even live there? I get supporting it but so many Jews act like their primary allegiance is to Israel and not to the US. I get that this what you were always taught but wake up already. Israel is no utopia and you know it [/quote]

Real simple answer.

The world has always hated, killed and blamed the Jews from Egyptian times, Inquisition, 1900’s Europe…..

No matter where they lived, no matter how safe they felt, untimely they were slaughtered.

So being a Jew here in the US, seeing the rise in antisemitism all over the cities, colleges, even congress, I am worried about what the next 20-30 years hold. What will happen with people like Clinton, Biden, etc die off and we have more people like Tlaib, Omar….

The only country that a Jew can feel safe in and always will be welcome in is Israel. Period.[/quote]m

If you feel the world is against you which frankly is greatly exaggerated, then the best way forward is to figure out a peaceful strategy. Annihilating innocent women and children is not going to win you any friends. The NY Times said that 70% of the dead in Gaza are children. [/quote]

Israel and anyone reflexively defending them does not have the moral high ground. Antisemitism is wrong but Israelis bullying Gazans isn’t going to right that.

And seriously good luck with the GOP for those of you claiming to be Jewish and claiming that you’ll definitely vote for the GOP. The internet being what it is, I assume some of you always were Republicans and thus your “I’m never voting for another Democrat again” is meaningless, but for those of you who are really going to cast their lot with the GOP? Seriously. Good luck with that. That is gazelles voting for leopards.[/quote]

I am so upset by this because when PPs post things like “if you are a Jew it’s on you to figure this out” I don’t quite know what to say. I am not an Israeli citizen. I am not a Middle East expert. I cannot figure this out. I mean why don’t you call on all the Palestinian supporters to figure out how to peacefully get rid of Hamas? [/quote]
None of what you wrote has anything to do with what I wrote. I didn’t say figure it out. I said to those few Jewish people happy to vote for the “Jews Will Not Replace Us” party, for the Moms of Liberty party that is happy to strip Jewish heritage books from schools, the “very fine people on both sides”: good luck. You’re going to need it if the GOP wins, you’re going to need it here in the States where you live, not in Israel.[/quote]

We were in US when GOP won the White House, why are you posting these threats? There were no threats to Jewish people when Trump was in power. None of the members of congress threatened jewish back then either. [/quote]
