Democrats sell themselves as champions of minority rights and protectors against 'tyranny of the majority.'

Jews are the smallest minority in the US. This is why they are wary of the Christian majority and favor organizations like the ACLU and the Southern Poverty Law Center. I know Jews with college degrees who are convinced the KKK is alive and kicking everywhere.

also the whole urban variable plays into this. Jews are concentrated in urban areas and that leans left by default

The major factor and one is that Jewish people have traditionally been the voice of the minority which is what the democratic party used to be for because by siding with the majority has dealt historical blowbacks to Jews in Germany in WWII but also in Russia during the Bolshevik revolution and before that in Greece on a large scale but on smaller scales this has also been seen in Africa or Persia. The majority isn't always your friend when once they get in power and seek to put their foot down on the throat of other minorities because the Jews often get thrown into the mix.

Jews economically though for the most part are very conservative or moderate-conservative leaning. Now the Democratic Party's move towards being in the majority rule has caused a mass shift in Jews towards the Republican Party but as you can see by a few comments on this board there are those who will take the Jewish support but then burn them at the stake once they get into power because they aren't "Christian" or "Catholic". The reality is that Christians and Catholics are now the minority world-wide and they now need the Jewish support now more than ever to prevent what the democratic party is moving towards and that is laying the groundwork for the Islamification of North America and Western Europe.

There is a reason that Russia reached out to Israel a couple of years ago to strengthen their bonds and its because of what Russia fears is taking place towards the South and East of their country a growing and active religious proxy war.

It would seem like nonsense that such a small insignificant country would be so talked about and take up about 50% of the U.N.'s time. And it would seem like non sense that the Jews as a people would be universally despised and percecuted. But only if it were non sense, and not planned.


This insignificant country is the true leader in cyberwarfare defense and offense globally and is fifteen years ahead of the United States and everyone else (including China) on advantages in preventing attacks at home and in launching attacks abroad. Israel started building up its IT infrastructure in the 1970's and the US is significantly dependent on Israel in the event of a global cybersecurity war. Without Israel the US falls in seconds whether you want to come to grips with this fact or not and this is the reason the US spends on Israel as we are paying them as our managed services to our cyber defense. I'm sure many will find my comments crazy but the truth of the matter is the US is totally vulnerable in every facet. The nuclear weapon is a thing of the past but a cyber nuclear weapon is a thing of the future and our IT infrastructure has been totally compromised whereas Israel's is not because of the safe guards on the system in the hiring criteria & selection process.

They were the Bolsheviks during the Russian Revolution. The Morranos (Conversos) that fled to Ottoman-occupied Salonika actually aligned with the Muslim Turks and attacked the indigenous Greek and Armenian Christians on their own indigenous soil at that time (see: Dohnme).

Most American Jews don't identify as being a Jew through religion but through ethnicity.

Secular Jews are predominately atheists and or non-religious. They don't care about Israel.

Orthodox Jews vote overwhelmingly for conservative candidates and Israel is a major concern to them.

This is not a new development.
Even 2000 years ago there were many "non religious jews" They were identified as the Sadducees who did not believe in an afterlife.

(New York, NY) December 7th, 2015, -- Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on [ ]. According to Pew Research, among others, there is great hatred towards Americans by large segments of the Muslim population. Most recently, a poll from the Center for Security Policy released data showing "25% of those polled agreed that violence against Americans here in the United States is justified as a part of the global jihad" and 51% of those polled, "agreed that Muslims in America should have the choice of being governed according to Shariah." Shariah authorizes such atrocities as murder against non-believers who won't convert, beheadings and more unthinkable acts that pose great harm to Americans, especially women.

Mr. Trump stated, "Without looking at the various polling data, it is obvious to anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension. Where this hatred comes from and why we will have to determine. Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life. If I win the election for President, we are going to Make America Great Again." - Donald J. Trump

During the reign of Catherine II in the 18th century, Jewish people were restricted to the Pale of Settlement within Russia, the territory where they could live or immigrate to. Alexander III escalated anti-Jewish policies.

Beginning in the 1880s, waves of anti-Jewish pogroms swept across different regions of the empire for several decades. More than two million Jews fled Russia between 1880 and 1920, mostly to the United States.

Before 1917 there were 300,000 Zionists in Russia, while the main Jewish socialist organization, the Bund, had 33,000 members. Only 958 Jews had joined the Bolshevik Party before 1917; thousands joined after the Revolution.

The chaotic years of World War I, the February and October Revolutions, and the Russian Civil War had created social disruption that led to anti-Semitism. Some 150,000 Jews were killed in the pogroms of 1918–1922, 125,000 of them in Ukraine, 25,000 in Belarus.

These were probably the largest-scale European massacres of Jews to date. The pogroms were mostly perpetrated by anti-communist forces; sometimes, Red Army units engaged in pogroms as well. After a short period of confusion, the Soviets started executing guilty individuals and even disbanding the army units whose men had attacked Jews.

Although pogroms were still perpetrated after this, mainly by Ukrainian units of the Red Army during its retreat from Poland (1920), in general, the Jews regarded the Red Army as the only force which was able and willing to defend them. The Russian Civil War pogroms shocked world Jewry and rallied many Jews to the Red Army and the Soviet regime, and also strengthened the desire for the creation of a homeland for the Jewish people.

Yet the 958 were highly influential in the Bolshevik movement and cause. By the way, does this somewhat explain why many Jews prefer Muslim Turkey over Russia? AIPAC was in favor of attacking the Christian Serbs on their own soil in the Balkans to protect the Albanians (Ottoman leftovers that invaded Europe in the past) and the left in America has been pushing to protect Turkish and Albanian interest over Russian interest, since the Ottoman Empire was more favorable to Jews than the Christian Byzantine Empire that Russia, Greece, and Serbia are trying to re-establish.

For whatever reason, the Israelis and most Jews, including "secular" Jews, really fear a potential Byzantine Empire and instead favor an Ottoman Empire and Turkey as a protectorate for Israel, since Israelis know that the US cannot be the protectorate forever.

American Jews are Jewish in name only and too stupid to realize that Islam is their real enemy.

People like John Stewart are American Jews. I doubt he is religious or gives a flip about Israel.

Well historically, in Europe and the Mid East, Jews were likely indeed treated better by Muslims than Christians. But that's all in the past and Europe is secular and Islam is the obvious danger to anyone with a brain. But Jews are living in the past, much like a black person who still thinks the kkk lurks behind every bush.

Muslims and Jews actually get along quite well in Western host nations and are willing to set aside any grievances they tend to have with one another at home in the Mideast. Some even suggest that the mass migration of Muslims into Western nations serves Israel's vital interest, since changing the demographics to make Western nations mirror that of Israel's predicament (surrounded by Muslims) will assure that Western nations never abandon Israel. It is basically a coercive strategy to ensure Israel that the West will have the same enemy for eternity.

If Europe was still all white and America was still circa 1% Muslim, then Westerners would become complacent and no longer sympathize with what the Israelis are experiencing on a daily basis. Red Eye host Greg Gutfeld slipped up on air one time and basically admitted this when the muslim migration was taking place after Merkel's decision, which really wasn't her decision, was taking place in Europe prior to the Cologne mass rape jihad.

Do you consider Tim Wise white? LINK

Usually when I see a "white person" online talking about "white privilege" or advocating for "white genocide", they turn out to be Jewish.

Just how it seems to be...

On the plus side for Republicans compared to 2012, the Jewish vote was up 2% for Trump than it was for Romney. So maybe the Republicans are getting a better grip on the Jews.
