#1 Ron Halper's theory that the majority of Dem's are pro Israel may be true for the rank and file but the activists are different - further left and more anti Israel

#2 Trump's fault. Yup! Has nothing to do with the anti-Semitism the Left has practiced since there was a thing as the political Left.

#3 ~~Jewish~~ Democratic leaders deny a broader trend.

#5 Silly Question that. An ex-acquaintance (ex-friend as well, mores the pity) told me that he was a Atheist Socialist Jew and felt that Jerry Falwell, who had already been dead for years!, was an existential threat unlike Jihadists who would slaughter him just because he was a Jew.

#10 Let's put up a few billion for 'P-Retirement zones' for old dems, and 'P-Economic zones' for young ones. Move a few million to Palestine. My hunch is things would get very quiet.
