Whatever you can say about Palin's supposed anti-semitism is nothing but rank speculation fueled by the powers that are seeking to destroy McCain's appeal. Only the most gullible would fall for it. The evidence concerning Obama's less than forthright commitment to Israel stares you in the face: Farrakahn, Rev. Wright, the Hamas endorsement, his documented association with PLO members. None of that seems to matter. Jewish-Americans are among the most reliable Democrat voters and among the most liberal. It should surprise no one that they would do out of their way to support Obama. The historical analogy, sadly, is that of Nazi Germany. The Jews there considered them Germans first and foremost and thought the Nazis would respect their loyalty. Obama's ascendancy will only embolden Israel's enemies and lead to more not less pressure being put on the Jewish State.
