I remain perplexed by the Jewish community’s politics. Witness the occupation of the capital rotunda by Jews calling for a cease-fire in Gaza. When dealing with animals, the only thing they respond to is the projection of power. Giving them a pass on this recent atrocity only guarantees that you will get another. Breitbart recently interviewed a staunch supporter of the Jewish state who opined that Jews in this country tend to be city dwellers, and are increasingly secular or so-called “non-practicing” Jews, two categories that tend towards liberalism, particularly when it comes down to progressive social issues. It would therefore appear that support of liberal social causes is more important than financial stability, business climate, or even traditional family values all qualities that the Jewish community would seem to embrace. We all recognize that the citizens of Gaza are not all Hamas. But unfortunately, the citizens of Gaza overwhelmingly voted them into power when they had an opportunity to elect a more moderate alternative. A party, if you would call them that, that plainly makes their platform a campaign of terror to eradicate the Jewish people is not a government with whom you negotiate, and it certainly makes the Palestinians complicit in the misery that is yet to come.
