IS THERE ANYTHING KOFI WON'T DO WHEN WE TELL HIM TO?:
US forges trail-blazing UN condemnation of Hizbullah (Herb Keinon, Nov. 23, 2005, THE JERUSALEM POST)
Following intense US pressure, the United Nations Security Council on Wednesday issued an unprecedented condemnation of Monday's Hizbullah attacks on northern Israel.This condemnation - slamming Hizbullah by name for "acts of hatred" - marked the first time the Security Council has ever reprimanded Hizbullah for cross-border attacks on Israel. The condemnation followed by two days a failed attempt to get a condemnation issued on Monday, the day of the attack, when Algeria came out against any mention of Hizbullah in the statement.
When asked what changed from Monday to Wednesday, one diplomatic official replied: "John Bolton"...
Yet most American Jews hate the President. Strange world. Posted by Orrin Judd at November 23, 2005 4:33 PM
I have never met people more ignorant and indifferent to their own history than American Jewish Liberals and those Jews who beleive in socialism, truthfulness of the NYT, greatness of Bill Clinton, etc. The list is too long.
There is an enormous fog of the left wing perversity and lies among affluent American Jews. There you will not find any traces of Judaism, just greed and stupidity unworthy of great Jewish tradition.
It is really sad. This is the result of 50 years of TV and universities cultural war against the common sense America.
It actually goes back further, to the social welfare/unionization efforts by immigrant Jews in the early 1900s, and the Democratic Party's embance of most of those ideas during the Roosevelt era. That cemented their link to the Democrats, and many of those people and their offspring look at Pat Robertson and not only see Father Coughlin, but think he and Pat Buchanan's paleocons remain the driving force, at least secretly, behind today's Republican Party.
You'd think being in the same party with the pro-Palestinian types would have finally caused some of them to rethink their positions. But much like a sports fan will still stick with their team no matter how bad the owner or the players act, many American Jews are sticking with the left in this country no matter how much they differ with them on Israel, because they can't conceive of rooting for the other side.

They were happily Marxists and no one but Hitler killed more Jews than the Marxists.
