With this administration turning it's back on Israel and the Democrats basically giving the big f you, I wonder how they will vote in 2016.

I have some neighbors that moved down from New York and we had this conversation they are Jewish and a bit confused where to stand with the nation of Israel basically being screwed over. I know many ethnic groups of this one in particular vote Democrat.

I wonder what the establishment Jews are thinking. Lots of D's in Senate who are playing the role of Judas.

As always the democrats spin this agreement to make it look positive, and the supporters just believe

If they're dumb enough to vote D all this time they'll continue to vote D. Something like 2/3 of American Jews vote D.

Most of the American Jews I have met aren't Jewish first, they are liberal first then Jewish when it benefits them.  They also rarely attend services.

Edit: They remind me of Catholics.  Almost all of the Catholics I know also vote liberal yet they profess to be against damn near everything liberals preach.  I know one conservative Catholic.  One.

a plurality of American Jews support the new Iran nuclear deal.

The LA Jewish Journal survey released Thursday found that 48 percent of Jews support the deal while 28 percent oppose it and 25 percent hadn't heard enough to form an opinion. The survey described key parts of the deal, which lifts major economic sanctions against Iran in exchange for Iran restricting its nuclear program in a way that makes it harder for it to produce nuclear weapons.

Jewish support for the deal was 20 percentage points higher than for Americans overall, according to a side-by-side poll of the general public.

To a liberal their politics are their only true religion. All other considerations are secondary. Liberal Jews will vote Dem no matter what the cost.

There are a ton of American Jews that are not pro-Israel.

Hell, the way it is has been explained to me that many American Jews only identify as Jews to claim victim/minority status, when in reality they do not practice Judaism.

I think some of the money support will waiver, but they will still vote for more taxes, more redistribution, more spying, more rights restricted.

Truth.  I know a few that are thoroughly unimpressed with Obama's bullshit and the "progressive" agenda in general.


But overall, you can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into in the first place.

A significant number of Jews support the various Palestinian terror groups and believe that Israel is the bad guy in that conflict. When you tell them how many rockets and rifle shots the Palestinians fired into Israel in the past few months, they pretty much put their hands over their ears and say, "Na, na, na, na, na, I can't hear you."

Their mind.  Not all Jews (cultural, religious, or both) are traditional democrats, thinking otherwise is buying into stereotypes.

They better pull their heads out of their asses quick and quit fucking up the country. Hitler is about to rise from his grave and this time the heavy water experiments are complete. If the US goes tits up, nobody will be there to fight for them, or give them aid. They aren't going to do as well as they did in the Six Day War with Russia and China actively providing high tech support to their enemies.

I've actually considered standing outside of a nearby synagogue near election time with a sign that questions their suicidal voting choices. Most of them are legit and walking to services, so they'd have a long time to chew on it as they approached.

Not an angry message... just something that says, "Hey man, I love you. Why do you insist on voting against your friends and spiritual homeland?"
