| Biden/Harris Would be a Disaster for the Middle East and American Jews |
| 2020-11-19 |
| [American Thinker] Exit polls indicate that President Trump received a record-number of Jewish votes this year with 30.5% nationally (up from 24% in 2016) and 43% in Florida helping him win that swing state by a healthy margin. But as a pro-Israel advocate who has spent many years fighting for policies that help Israel and Jews survive in a world in which they’re surrounded by hate, I am once again dismayed by American Jews who — only 75 years since the Holocaust — fail to heed the lessons of history. Seventy percent insanely (and inanely) obsess over abortion rights, climate change, gun control, social justice, and illegal immigrant rights over their own survival and that of their brethren in Israel who are on the front lines of the war directed against all of us. Non-Jews are bewildered by the voting patterns and ideology of American Jews who are predominantly tethered to the Democrat party, do not prioritize Israel as a voting concern, and support actual Jew-haters and Israel-bashers. I have written about the Democrat party’s problem with Israel and anti-Semitism and yet liberal Jews continue to ignore reality. American Jews for instance are apathetic about Biden’s promise, should he end up as president, to rejoin the JCPOA -- the crowning achievement of the Obama/Biden administration, second only to the partisan passage of Obamacare that led to millions losing their doctors and health insurance. They are unconcerned that the revived nuclear deal would lead to Iran, the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism that openly calls for death to Israel and America, obtaining nuclear weapons by 2025. The only question seems to be how many planeloads of cash Biden would ship to Iran and how many of Trump’s crippling sanctions that have destroyed the Iranian economy Biden would lift to bring the mullahs back to negotiations — as Obama did. Biden would be soft on terrorism, and that does not bode well for the U.S. or Israel. He advised Obama not to assassinate Osama bin Laden, advice Obama thankfully ignored. He criticized Trump green-lighting the assassination of Qasem Soleimani, head of Iran’s Quds Force responsible for the death and maiming of thousands of Americans. And at the U.S. request, Israeli agents just assassinated al Qaeda’s number two in command who had found safe haven in Tehran, belying any lingering notion that Iran and al Qaeda are not in cahoots or that Iran is moderating its behavior. |

| #3 I guess fabulous Barry has a new book out. A Promised Land. The audio version is self-narrated. And lasts 29 hours. More than twice as long as the Bengazi Embassy Siege. |

| #2 You thought Stockholm syndrome applies just to individuals - not groups? |
