"Dear American Jews, be more (and/or less) Jewy", sincerely Catholic Asshole

Well, here we go, Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Raptureland).

The short answer is that most American Jews are liberal, and most American liberals side with the Palestinians and vague notions of “peace” instead of with Israel’s wellbeing and security. Like the president, the U.N., and most of Europe, too many American Jews aren’t as pro-Israel as they should be

I am one of those liberal American Jews-and I deplore the fundamentalist thinking of Bibi and his crew just as much as that of Hamas. They are soul brothers in many ways.

I fear that a huge opportunity was missed when Israelis failed to support and praise their Arab cousins' democratic uprisings as a chance to find a real peace finally.

"as they should be?"
Jews thinking for themselves is a paramount duty. Peace is coming, and no, Bibi is not POTUS while Obama is abroad.

Joe Walsh is a teabager in a Chicago suburban district. He's toast in 2012. I'm guessing he's looking for a job with AIPAC after the election.

Shorter Walsh:
Why can't American Judaism exalt pig-ignorance, tribalism, conformity, groupthink and denigration of education, science, reasoning and knowledge like my religion, Republicanism?

why can't they let hammas evolve like the PLO?
