Giant Jews Jumpin for Joe

AIPAC likes Biden, says Ami Eden of JTA in a report on Biden's Zionist street-cred

Haaretz says that Biden's dispelled many Jews' doubts about Obama, because he's so beloved by Jews. It quotes megawallet Steve Grossman, who will always be memorable for attacking Desmond Tutu when they had the Sabeel conference in Boston.

    Phil,
    I can't tell if you take heart that AIPAC and other organizations like both Obama and Biden (and McCain), or that you wish that Obama won through sticking it to AIPAC.

    I prefer a responsive organization to changing objective conditions.

    My sense is that the majority of Jews that I know would strongly prefer a confident (for Israel) humane, intelligent, and competent American administration, to a dogmatic, strictly strategic, idiotic and incompetent one like the one we have now.

    McCain promises slivers of competence, with regions of incompetence.

    In contrast Obama/Biden promises humanity, intelligence, creativity, diplomacy, competence.

    surprised joe the six-pack slug never served in(he served but not in uniform) the j,000,000ish terrorist force.

    following is a selection from mahmoud darwish. darwish is a reminder why j,000,000ry hate all others. j,000,000ish contributions to culture are mediocre to garbage to degrading to destructive. those who have made great contributions and are claimed by j,000,000ry left the group(cant say religion. it aint. maybe suffering no matter how fake is a religion?) and become human.

    slugs, warts like biden and cheney have left the human race and become j,000,000s.

    O those who pass between fleeting words
    carry your names, and be gone
    Rid our time of your hours, and be gone
    Steal what you will from the blueness of the sea
    And the sand of memory
    Take what pictures you will, so that you understand
    That which you never will:
    How a stone from our land builds the ceiling of our sky

    From you steel and fire, from us our flesh
    From you yet another tank, from us stones
    From you teargas, from us rain…

    It is time for you to be gone
    Live wherever you like, but do not live among us
    It is time for you to be gone
    Die wherever you like, but do not die among us
    For we have work to do in our land

    So leave our country
    Our land, our sea
    Our wheat, our salt, our wounds
    Everything, and leave
    The memories of memory
    those who pass between fleeting words!

    – Mahmoud Darwish, Those who pass between fleeting words, 1988.
