    You just wont admit you are wrong and move on will you. EVERY Jewish Senator minus one is a D. Same with the House.

    Cantor is a R and Sanders is an I but usually sides with the D's.. How the (*)(*)(*)(*) can you keep this act up?

    I think most of the world wants a just peace in Palestine and a solution to the Iranian problem...

    Israel want the rest of the West Bank..

    Read Martin Van Creveld...

    Why do you think numbers are particularly meaningful in regards to the increasing anti-Jewish sentiment being embraced by the Left in general? You do not lightly switch parties knowing that your constituents are unlikely to continue voting you into office anyway. You do not lightly turn your back on a decade or more of carefully cultivated political alliances and favors owed and favors received. You do not lightly turn your back of funding sources that you already know how to work. There are almost always more reasons than the obvious why people tend to stick with what they already know even as the hairs on the nape of their necks are beginning to lift in growing horror.

    Being 'correct' regarding certain issues does not mean that racism or bigotry is not also creeping into the 'feelings' of more and more Left of Center people. Of course just because I believe I am detecting this as an ever growing trend does not mean that it's actually happening. I have no proof baring someone doing some sort of arcane textual analysis of the vast numbers of leftwing generated articles and postings on the subject matter; and how likely is that to happen?

    So it's my interpretation of general trends I think I have detected. Nothing more. But in all honesty I really am beginning to have more difficulty distinguishing practical talks by members of the Left in regards to Israeli Jews or of Jews in general from other types of less kind input that is not traditionally associated with the Left.

    Creveld is a realist and Israel's foremost military historian..

    He says that Israel doesn't need the West Bank.

    You are obsessing over one politican who left his party to get re-elected over the overwhelming proof that i showed you.

    Frankly your desperation is sad.

    So? As a nation there are many things that we don't need but that we WANT that other nations object to. In politics it's pretty much a matter of what you can get away with demanding or with arranging under the table deals for.

    What did what I posted have to do with one single politician? I was pointing out why all those Democratic senators might just be staying with an increasingly hostile party.

    I did not say that I disagreed. I do not even claim to be a supporter of Israel. I simply point out what I perceive to be leftwing disgust with the actions and attitudes of the Jewish controlled Israeli nation with inveterate haters of Jews in general. Personally I've always believed that the next World War will occur due to Israeli intransigence in the face of their neighbor's perhaps not entirely at fault actions. Meh . . . but I could be wrong.

    I asked Gate the same question. He ignored me and repeated his evidence free assertion that liberals are turning into anti Semites.

    IMO.. you are wrong..

    The hostility I see is from Israelis towards American Jews.

    Really? Then I take it that you've read no other posts from other opposition voices in these various thread branches.

    Far from ignoring you TomFritz I agreed with you about PNAC. It's just when I pointed out other things your brain apparently went on the -- er -- fritz.

    "The hardest thing to explain is the glaringly evident which everyone has decided not to see" -Ayn Rand


    Rand is far from perfect but she does have a quote for every occassion:roll:

    Thanks for putting my life experiences into the troll bin. Prior to this I respected your opinions although not always agreed. You seemed consistent and fair in your beliefs. I respect that in a person.
    Just because Im not worldly enough to debate world politics shouldn't negate what knowledge I do possess. I usually just "troll" these type posts in an effort to better educate myself in areas Im lacking. You've slipped a notch, Good Day

    Ahhh that witticism is still just as funny as it is old. Never get tired of seeing that in every liberal/religious blog out there.
    Got any new stuff?

    Edit/Unnecessary comment I don't think there is anti-Jewish sentiment anywhere - it is just that a few people are beginning to realise that the only difference between Netenyahu and Hitler is that Hitler is more obviously dead.

    Who's Netanyahu? I mean beside being president of a country with a population less than LA County? Is he a prophet or something?

    He is a major consumer of food stolen from the Palestinian people. Far from being a prophet he is a dead loss! :)
