(53,661 posts)Conservative Christians will seek to use him, but he won't fall for it. Most Jews don't, they know the fate of the rabbit. He is there to educate them.
I don't see his support of Israel as a problem. He's not doing it because he's Jewish, no more than Obama or HRC support Israel. They are strategic partners and the chances that the USA will give them up, is unlikely. Does that make me 'too cozy with Israel?'
I'm not swiftboating BS, you jump to conclusions far too fast. As to your allegations to me about anti-semiticsm, you can take that up to my Jewish friends, doctors, lawyers, BNL, my Jewish ex if he was alive to speak who was the father of my child, his Jewish godfather, my Jewish MNL, my former Jewish fiance, and the rest of them. Does that make me 'too cozy with Israel?'
I didn't know he has dual citizenship and don't care. You seem interested in Israeli dual citizenship. Many of the people in my family do and have good reason to, their history mandates they have a place to escape. I only know one person who has taken the chance to move to Israel. The rest want to stay here and I want them to stay, also. By your way of thinking, I am 'too cozy with Israel.'
This country was once their place to escape to, although the UK took in more than we did at first. The largest Jewish population is in the USA:

Kindly cease the personal insults and accusations of people you don't know.
My post was not a slam of Bernie and you cannot prove any such thing. I will vote for him if he is nominee. But not as a third party, and he has promised to not run third party. Does that make me 'too cozy with Israel'?
Will you term yourself by what you seem to think is a perjorative term, now?
