Though the Obama administration would declare the United States supported Israel’s right to defend herself; however, they wouldn’t end there. Obama and his team usually found a way to add a false equivalency statement inferring both sides bore some responsibility for the violence while Trump has shown unequivocal support for Israel

Truman was a president who judged not whether things would make America popular in the Arab world, but whether it was the right thing for the US. The man from Independence, Mo. knew the best thing for America’s future was for to grab the moral leadership position of the entire world.

Like most pro-Israel or pro-Jewish organizations in AIPAC leans towards progressivism. Progressives including AIPAC try to ensure that all results are equal even if it means diluting the good for a mediocre middle. That’s why the liberals and their friends in the MSM who are saying AIPAC is trying to make Israel a partisan Issue are lying and may be hurting their progressive efforts.

With Iranian forces having free reign in Syria, Israeli sovereignty over the Golan is critical for her basic security and to protect American interests from being destroyed by Iran.
By Jeff Dunetz
If it weren’t for Eli Cohen, most probably President Trump would not have been able to recognize Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights, because that sovereignty might not exist.

Instead of what the Bible teaches, each one of us assuming personal responsibility and using our good deeds to gain closeness to God, in Socialism we become part of an overall group with no accountability.

Time will tell if Democratic Party leadership will continue to point out the Antisemitism in their ranks, I am not optimistic. As for Rep. Omar’s half-apology. Based on the fact that she used her apology to demonize AIPAC, it is doubtful she is really chastened.

When you single out Israel for supposed “oppression” and ignore Iran, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Egypt, North Korea, Russia, etc. then it’s pretty clear what the motivation is.

Chanukah is a holiday about Jews fighting against assimilation a lesson which needs to be reinforced over and over here in the galut (diaspora). The holiday and candles are also a reminder that in Judaism, the light of God begins in the home lit by the observance of a single family unit, and just like the Chanukiah (Menorah) that light is supposed to radiate from the home to the community and eventually throughout the world.

Roosevelt failed to take relatively simple measures that would have saved significant numbers of Jews during the Holocaust because his vision for America was one that had a small number of Jews.

Strictly Jewish perspective putting the Democrats in power; electing new Israel haters and placing incumbent supporters of Louis Farrakhan, and anti-Israel positions in key chairmanships, American Jewry’s support of the Democratic Party is just as bad as the silence of Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi.

Rather than fight terrorists and the disgusting philosophy of political Islam, our leaders say “try not to insult them, we are worried that our words or actions might make them angry.” For God’s sake, what has being nice to terrorist done to make them stop.

With its lurch to the left, the Democratic Party has moved further away from its traditional support of Israel. In fact, after eight years of Obama’s leadership, the Democratic Party has become the anti-Israel party.

It is now clear to both Israel's friends and adversaries, that any peace must include a recognition of Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish people.

Throughout Jewish history, horrible things have happened to the Jewish people on or around the 9th day of Av. Even former Pres. Obama, the most anti-Semitic president in my lifetime has an eerie connection to this sad day.

Think about it…we’ve had years of four justices who strictly follow the constitution (conservatives), four justices who believe they can create law (liberals), and Kennedy in the middle. A Trump pick will create a permanent 5-4 conservative majority.

These Nazi or Hitler references are inappropriate because their hyperbolic nature cheapens the memory of the actual horrors that millions of people including six million Jews. From a journalistic point of view, the exaggeration is a sign of disrespect for their audience.

Only Republicans decided to attend the embassy opening in Jerusalem. Another surprise when one considers American Jews blind loyalty to the Democratic Party.
By Jeff Dunetz
Many ambassadors of European nations who oppose the move will skip it, including our ‘allies,” including those from the UK, France, and Germany. That’s not all, according to Axios, our EU ‘buddies’ tried to pass a resolution that would embarrass Pres. Trump for moving the U.S. embassy:

Today is Yom Yerushalayim, Jerusalem Day when supporters of Israel celebrate the day during the 6-Day-War when Israel reunited the holy city of Jerusalem, and for the first time in almost 20 years Jews had access to the holy sites in East Jerusalem. For me, the holiday is a split decision. I am ecstatic that Jerusalem is united, but I am saddened that I am celebrating the day here in my home office rather than in Jerusalem.

Allowing Iran a nuclear-capable long-range missile program and the expiration of nuclear restrictions were concessions made by the spineless team of Obama and Kerry. But the third item, inspections of military sites is already part of the JCPOS.

Truman didn’t make his decision to support the nascent State of Israel because of politic--there was loud opposition from the State Department--but like so many of his policies, he supported Israel because he thought it was the right thing to do

This attack had nothing to do with Assad’s chemical attack and everything to do with Iran.

According to the Deputy Chairman of the Democratic Party Rep. Keith Ellison, his colleagues don’t care about his ties to Farrakhan and he is probably correct because Antisemitism is embedded into the Democratic Party.
By Jeff Dunetz
Farrakhan’s hateful words Sunday were reported by the media but his relationship with Democrats was not treated the same way as when a bigot announces support of President Trump.

Oslo didn’t stop terrorism. In the 2 years between the signing of Oslo and the assassination of Rabin, 10 Palestinian terrorist attacks killed 75 Israelis, wounding another 242. The crazed zealot who killed Rabin did so because he hated the Oslo Accords, but by killing Rabin he may have saved Oslo

The Palestinian efforts to “sway public opinion” have failed, in fact, the only result of PA President Abbas’ efforts has been to drive a wedge between Pres. Trump and the Arab World.

How did WFAN react to this blatant Antisemitism? Suspension? On-air apologies? For the 9/12 display of bigotry, WFAN reacted by sweeping their comments under the rug, their two cash-cow of bigots denied it ever happened, and the station even claimed they “lost” the tape of the day’s programming.
