Nathan Jeffay, The Forward: Has Barack Obama become the bane of Israeli Jews?
Talkback
Title:Obama does not support the rights views
Name:Shalom
City: JerusalemState:
Obama wants to find a real solution which of course includes abandoning most of the settlements. This of course is not accepted by
the right wing who are opposed to any compromise. In their view friends of Israel are
only those who accept their view for a non solution to the conflict. According to that view the overwhelming majority of American Jews
who are in favor of abandoning most of the
settlements and establishing a viable Palestinian state are also not supporters or
friends of Israel. This issue is what can assure the future of a democratic Jewish state and not blind adherence to ideological concepts
