I'm actually starting to wonder if she will be able to hang on for 2 years. The 5th district is very liberal, but it is also home to a good chunk of the MN Jewish population. | |||

Yeah, don't hold your breath. There is no other group in the entire world that votes against their interests in such a blind and foolish way as American Jews. If this offends anyone here, well, you're just going to have to be offended, because what I said is the truth. Speaking politically, these people are blind, suicidal idiots. Again, if you're offended, be my guest, because it's the truth. I've given up trying to understand their stupid behavior when it comes to politcs. | |||

Direct hit!! I have been saying this for years! Frankly, I am puzzled by this "phenomenon".

Liberalism apparently is more important to leftist Jews than the survival of Jews and survival of the State of Israel. That's my take-away from their irrational behavior. | |||

The vast majority of the US Jewish population doesn't give a rip about the State of Israel. So yeah, sad but true. __________________________________ NRA Benefactor I lost all my weapons in a boating, umm, accident. http://www.aufamily.com/forums/ | |||

This gal is hitting it out of the park. Omar apologizes for Israel comments Look, you hate Jews. You’ve made that clear since the moment you got to Minnesota, and before you completely scrubbed the internet it was on your Twitter too. I don’t hate a lot of people, but this woman...man I do not like her, I do not like her one bit. She has figured out how to parlay rich, white-guilt from Minneapolis into votes. “LOOK HOW ENLIGHTENED WE ARE! SHE WEARS A SCARF AND LOVE’S ALLAH SO WE VOTED FOR HER! YAY!!!” It does not hurt that Minneapolis is also home of the largest Somali population in the United States....but whatever. And yes, you did marry your brother.

Count me amongst the group that just doesn't understand why American Jews support and vote for the anti-Semetic, Jew-hating (redundant, I know) demoshit candidate. This explains a lot of it, but it still absolutely baffles me...
"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

I am eager to be corrected by someone who really knows, but my understanding about many Jews who don’t support the establishment of the state of Israel is that it (or the return to Jerusalem or whatever) wasn’t supposed to occur until the arrival of the Messiah. And because that hasn’t happened yet (Jesus doesn’t count), establishing a Jewish state is illegitimate. I suspect that like many other things people believe or don’t believe, it’s nevertheless a convenient excuse regardless of how devout they are about everything else. And based on an article or two I’ve read, devout Judaism is dying in this country. If someone doesn’t self-identify all that strongly with the basic religion and there are other factors influencing one’s political beliefs, I can easily see why many nominal Jews don’t feel that it’s politic to support Israel. ► 6.4/93.6 “ Enlightenment is man’s emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one’s own understanding without another’s guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one’s own mind without another’s guidance.” — Immanuel Kant | |||

As an American Jew, I'm not offended. In my experience, when it comes to Israel there is a fundamental tension in American Jews, a desire for Israel to be strong enough to protect itself and all that requires, and a deep-seated cultural aversion to GOP and empathy with social justice and Dems. They can be at odds, sometimes wildly, yet there it is. Most American Jews I know are liberal to flaming liberal, but not so much that they want to "de-claw" Israel. | |||

You would think that anyone who cracked open a history book of the 20th century and read about the persecution of Jews in Europe and in America would see the clear picture. ********* "Some people are alive today because it's against the law to kill them". | |||

I don't understand Jewish support-- even secular Jewish support-- for ANY Democrat. I just don't get it. Mom's family were Catholics in Bavaria during the Nazi rise to power. Their Jewish neighbors and friends refused to believe that the rantings and pronouncements of Hitler and his ilk were anything but rhetoric meant to rally their "base" no matter how plain the Nazis were about their vision and intentions. Towards the "beginning of the end" my grandmother pleaded with one neighbor to get out while they could. They didn't. Soon they were barred from practicing their profession, their accounts receivable were basically declared null and uncollectible, and they were prohibited from selling their assets. Then one day they weren't there any more. Now we have far-left Dems openly calling for the destruction of Israel and the death of Jews, Dems who can influence funding and can muddy or delay the confirmation of policy-level foreign affairs specialists and diplomats and rally behind their next candidate... who, if they want any prayer of the Presidency, need the support of the radicals. My take-away from the "family experience" some thirty years before I was born? Believe that rabid anti-Semites mean every word they say, don't EVER let them ascend to positions of power, and hound them from office at any cost. | |||

Jews have been discriminated against in the U.S., but there was no persecution to any degree close to the countless pogroms in Europe. And that may be part of the reason that very many American Jews really have no appreciation of what the existence of a sovereign Jewish state actually means. More and more I’m thinking that the current state of U.S. politics and society is in no small part due to something similar for the country as a whole. When generations grow up with no serious external threat to their way of life, then the trivial becomes more and more important and the proposed “solutions” to those trivial issues become more and more outlandish and bizarre. ► 6.4/93.6 “ Enlightenment is man’s emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one’s own understanding without another’s guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one’s own mind without another’s guidance.” — Immanuel Kant | |||

You would think. Or, about the history and successes (not) of communism, socialism, fascism, etc. | |||

I guess this is the result of a dumbed down educational system that is more interested in gender studies than actual history. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it." Mark Twain | |||

Yeah they, and their congress critters, hand billions to Israel yearly to build walls. When it comes to the US, basic sovereignty and control of borders is heinous and racist. Same with unchecked African/ME invasion of Europe and the US. Of course, that can't happen to Israel. | |||

One thing I will never understand, no matter how hard I study it, is why Minnesota and in particular Minneapolis is so hell bent on turning itself into a third world country. | |||

Living here my whole life, I really believe it comes down to very liberal women, married to very wealthy men, who feel helpless in their quest to save the world; so they look for ways to show the world that MN is not all redneck gun lovers. Minneapolis in particular has pockets of these neighborhoods that Democrats have identified as targets for this nonsense. Omar came out of nowhere and beat longtime incumbent Phyllis Kahn in the DFL primary, and most of us thought Phyllis was as loony-left as you can get. And if it cannot get any worse, my 'woke' state voted Keith Ellefson as the Minnesota Attorney General. Good times. ___________________________ All it takes...is all you got. ____________________________ For those who have fought for it, Freedom has a flavor the protected will never know ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||
