US Poll: Israel Alone Named 'Vital Friend'

But if it will make you feel better:

Biden’s son married into a Jewish family, but his keen interest in the region dates back to his first visit as a U.S. senator, not long before the 1973 Yom Kippur. He met Israel’s then-prime minister, Golda Meir.

He came away from that meeting understanding that “there is this inextricable tie between culture, religion, ethnicity that most people don’t fully understand—that is unique and so strong with Jews worldwide,” Biden said in an interview with Shalom TV last year, when he launched his own presidential bid. “When I was a young senator, I used to say, ‘If I were a Jew I’d be a Zionist.’ I am a Zionist. You don’t have to be a Jew to be a Zionist.’”

Yes I know it's an ugly stinking ass, but it's what you have to kiss to get elected.

You'll learn to love kissing that ass, Sarah, unlikely as it sounds now.

You will, I promise…

mafish( rotted white fish in street yiddish) thinks he/she/it is saying there isnt a palestine. but there is. soon all rotted white fish will thoroughly decompose and the smell will go.

Palin, who has been criticized by Democrats for her lack of foreign policy experience, yesterday skipped a scheduled appearance with an anti-abortion group, meeting instead with leaders of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee at her Minneapolis hotel.

I am less softhearted towards Palestinians than some. I understand perfectly well that nation-building requires ethnic cleansing, and the Israelis were no worse than other nations, whose brutal elimination of ethnic and linguistic minorities has long been forgotten except to specialized historians.

However this conflation of the State of Israel with Judaism proper is an abominable heresy, and taints Judaism everywhere.

The Anti-Defamation League, which has been deeply critical of Jews for Jesus and was among the organizations calling for Democratic nominee Barack Obama to distance himself from his controversial pastor during the primaries, said it had no problem with Palin’s membership in a church that supported efforts to convert Jews.

The ADL’s national director, Abraham Foxman, told JTA that Protestant evangelizing to Jews was entirely different from Catholics praying for Jewish conversion, which the ADL has sharply criticized.

“They did not have the Inquisition. They did not go on a Crusade. They did not kill Jews for 2,000 years,” Foxman said. “They have a belief; they’re entitled to their belief.”

So how many more Iraq wars did Palin and McCain have to promise?
