Dovish Jews? They love Israel? Excommunicate them.
Dovish Jews? They love Israel? Excommunicate them

We don't need them. They'll never see things our way, no matter what. Let them go.

It's a new Israeli approach which borrows from the very worst of our aging instincts. It says: We're moral, our enemies are out to exterminate us along with our state, that's all you need to know. No modifications necessary. Stay the course. Concede nothing. Ease no siege. Give no ground. Ever....

The opening shot was fired this month by the former chairman of the Governing Board of the World Jewish Congress, Isi Liebler, who declared it "our obligation to confront the enemy within - renegade Jews - including Israelis who stand at the vanguard of global efforts to demonize and delegitimize the Jewish state."

....
And what of J Street and the spectrum of Jewish leftists and peace advocates? The world unity conference would deal with them as well. According to Liebler, "in addition to encouraging millions of Jews in the Diaspora who remain committed to Israel to become more actively engaged in our struggle, such a gathering would also provide an opportunity to exorcise the renegades from our midst."

1. Three Jews and a typewriter equal five political parties.
Those who expect(or demand)unanimity of Jewish opinion are not reality based.

2. I think everyone should just kill everyone
that they do not like. Just in the very old days. My God is bigger than your god. To hell with everyone else.

This is the world be live in. It makes me sick.
