Seliger and other Left-Zionists pretend to subscribe to post-tribalism on all issues but the one that matters to them the most — Zionism — which in turn rightly makes all of their other post-tribalist "stands" suspect. Anyone who will betray a cause once will do it time and again whenever things get tight. Jews right now are being put through an historical stress test, and only a handful on the vanguard like Weiss and Martillo or passing muster. The rest are reverting to form.

The problem is that your lobby was spectacularly successful. You have gotten us into two ME wars on your behalf. First Lebanon in 1982 and now Iraq. Those wars were not one bit in US national interests but the Israelis believed they were in hers. And her agents in this country held sway.

Now, because of the Israel Lobby's tremendous success, then that makes it the enemy of every patriotic American. This really is what it comes down to. We do not want you to destroy our country.

Seliger is right that Phil has alienated more than he's motivated.

Let me get this extraordinary statement straight:

According to above, a generic Jew, after reading Phil's blog, and after finding out the countless examples of abuses of Palestinian human rights by Israelis, will not feel motivated to do the right thing, and nudge its community in direction of basic tenets of western civilisation BUT, instead, will feel alienated, and presumably will do exactly opposite and rut for Israeli government to show those dirty Arabs once and for all that staying in Judea and Samaria is really not an option, and Gazan's really don't need more than, say, 1000 calories a day, if that.

??????????????????

You seem accord less humanitarian attributes to Jews than most of us, "anti-semites", commenting on this blog.

He knows it. You know it.

This is a good post, and your response to Mr. Seliger is accurate and compelling.

I don't understand why you feel a need to apologize to gentile readers like myself for wishing Mr. Seliger a Happy Jewish New Year. Also, I don't think that Christians who celebrate Christmas or Muslims who celebrate Ramadan should feel any need to apologize to non-believers for offering good wishes to their co-religionists on these holidays.
