What American Jews want
Unfortunately, Shmuel Rosner is probably right about this. Obama does not aim for the trust of Israeli Jews. He aims for the trust of American Jews, and his starting point with them is different: Most of them want to believe him.What could go wrong?
An American president who is in conflict with Israel is a president who confuses American Jews. A Democratic president who is in conflict with Israel is a president who confuses them even more. Who will the Jews vote for next year — a Republican candidate? It is hard to believe. Will they stay at home? They don’t usually stay at home. Will they vote for Obama? They will be happy to vote for Obama, only if he gives them a lifeline, only if he helps them to be convinced, only if he straightens a few things out. They will be happy to believe Obama, no matter what the Israelis believe.

The majority of Jewish-Americans do not care about Israel, they care about themselves. Israel has friends in the US and it isn't the majority of their fellow Jews. Israel needs to deal with that reality. It is not something new in the annuls of Jewish history. Jews betraying their fellow Jews for the largesse of the antisemitic elements of the democratic party.The Jews of America kept silent about helping their fellow Jews during the Holocaust what makes Israel think that the grandchildren of these cowards are any different today? All they care is about their own position in American society. Israel take care of yourself and do what you have to do and stop worrying about Jewish Americans. YOU are NOT in their thoughts except how you are making them choose between the right to murder their unborn children (abortion) and saving the lives of their fellow Jews.
"The majority of Jewish-Americans do not care about Israel, they care about themselves."
Wow. Quite a broad charge, there. Could you please post here your sources for this assertion?
