The phrase was originally used by a group called the America First Committee in the 1940s, which pushed to keep the U.S. out of World War II. Donald Trump is being criticized by the Anti-Defamation League for repeating a slogan the group believes to be anti-Semitic. The ADL has taken issue with Trump's use of the phrase "America First" to describe his approach to foreign policy. The phrase was originally used by a group called the America First Committee in the 1940s, which pushed to keep the U.S. out of World War II. A Look Back at Donald Trump's Tumultuous Relationship With Jewish Voters Donald Trump Isn't the First American Politician to Put 'America First' Trump's Foreign Policy Will Put 'America First' The ADL released a statement Thursday saying that famed aviator Charles Lindbergh, one of the best-known supporters of the committee, sympathized with the Nazis. "The undercurrents of anti-Semitism and bigotry that characterized the America First movement – including the assumption that Jews who opposed the movement had their own agenda and were not acting in America’s best interest – is fortunately not a major concern today," ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt said in a statement. |

I'm always amazed, that American Jews are against those who support them the most, and FOR those who would rejoice in their destruction. .
God called them a "hard headed people" in the Bible for a reason... |

I was born Jewish and raised Jewish.....so I say this from the bottom of my heart;
Todays modern American Jew can fuck the fucking fuck off. My Russian grandfather, who was a real Jew that fled the communist while they were taking over Russia, is spinning in his grave with rage at the state of the modern American Jewish culture. He would spit in their faces. I hang my head in shame and renounced Judaism years ago over the liberal state of the Jewish culture in this country. |

Aren't the Democrats for bulldozing Israel and giving it to the Palestinians? Maybe these guys should STFU, before their worst nightmare comes true...

I knew there were groups here that had a political and financial stake in keeping segments of our country like a third world country, but to what benefit Isreal if the libs stay in power here?

Weird? I don't recall ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt being upset when Obama:
Obama rushed headlong into what is almost universally regarded by astute, adult foreign policy experts as an Iran nuclear deal that will actually provide all the cover Tehran needs to continue its pursuit of weapons of mass destruction, which it has consistently threatened to use to obliterate Israel – the one and only Jewish state. Obama’s anti-Israel bent has been palpable since his first full day in office – Jan. 21, 2009 – when he gathered his new national-security team in the Oval Office and laid out a tough new policy toward Israel. Central to his strategy was pressuring Israel – the one and only Jewish state – to make whatever accommodations were necessary to accommodate the so-called “Palestinian grievances.” Obama used taxpayer money, his own political operatives and a nonprofit front group to interfere in the recent Israeli election, specifically with the intent of toppling Benjamin Netanyahu as prime minister. It was an unprecedented move against an America ally, arguably an impeachable offense, a criminal misappropriation of government funds and, thankfully, a complete failure, like most of Obama’s foreign misadventures. It’s also prima facie evidence of Obama’s hatred of Israel – the one and only Jewish state. Then came Obama’s even more famous call for a return to Israel’s pre-1967 borders – which more accurately should be termed “Auschwitz borders.” Did I mention Israel is the one and only Jewish state? |

Of course. Can't have any candidate expressing pride or love for their own country without someone scratching up a way to get offended.
I am sure it would be much better if he said how bad and wrong his country has been and promised to go around the world apologizing to everyone else once elected. |

Hahaha, and the Obama, blatantly Communist, "Forward" campaign of 2012....How many Jews did Americans kill and imprison versus Soviets and other Commie regimes.
Fuck them, JINOs. |

The ADL doesn't have much credibility, it's nothing but a politically partisan organization. No one cares what they say about anything.

Communists hate anti communists just like they hated Senator Joe McCarthy....
They make counter accusations using emotionally charged epithets. Trump's son in law is Jewish ...Trumps daughter converted to Judaism....Trump has made his pilgrimage to the "Holy Land" and gotten the blessing. |

Wonder what they said about the immigration policies as of late.

Someone explain to me how it's anti-semitic? View Quote Six million Jews died. It would have been more if the U.S. hadn't become involved is the theory (and rightly so with only an estimated 3 million survivors) I'm speculating. But it is all hindsight. Out of context. The moral outrage is from knowing something now that wasn't known then. BTW the majority of the death camp work was done from 1942 to 1943 IIRC (within a 1.5 yr period). A lot of them were dismantled and covered up before the war turned on Hitler.... |
