“It really is absurd to think that they do support Israel.”
Huh? 51 of 57 Democrats signed the AIPAC letter! That is actually a slightly higher percentage than the 35 of 41 Republicans who signed. It is absurd to think that Democratic elected officials do not support Israel.
This thread is supposed to be about Republicans and Democrats, not the far left fringe of people like Ralph Nader or Cynthia McKinney or Cindy Sheehan, none of whom are Democrats any more than Patrick Buchanan or David Duke are Republicans.
Republican operatives have been trying to convince Jews that Democrats are anti-Israel left wing extremists like the three people I mentioned above. First, it isn’t true, and second, it causes huge damage to Israel’s cause here in the US to turn support for Israel into a partisan political issue. I won’t stand for it.
I would add that I do not subscribe to either of your propositions (A) or (B) although I don’t understand what (B) has to do with Israel.
