If he's lost Abe Foxman....
“Make no mistake about it. If what we are seeing now is the beginning of a deep change in American foreign policy, it will be bad for the Jews,” said Foxman, the ADL’s national director, at a conference Thursday marking the group’s 100th anniversary in New York.
“The combination of America’s unsatisfactory involvement in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, together with the financial crisis at home, have generated a broader opposition to American military involvement overseas,” he said.
Citing among other things the recent congressional resistance to authorizing a strike on Syria, Foxman said: “America is being seen as weak and retreating.”
“The world looks at our choices, looks at our public opinion polls, looks at congressional reactions, looks at the paralysis in Washington on budgeting matters and wonders,” he said.
The perception of weakness could harm US efforts to get Iran to end its nuclear push, Foxman warned.
“I hope that we get our act together,” he said. “I hope Congress starts to think of the bigger picture. I hope we are truly able to keep all options on the table, whether vis-à-vis Iran or Syria, without rushing to military action.”Hey Abe - who's behind that? Who took authorization for a strike on Syria to Congress in the first place? Who has weakened America's military capabilities like no previous President? Who has destroyed America's economy and denied its exceptionalism? Who would be happy to 'contain' a nuclear Iran? Congress? Really?

They haven't lost Abe. Abe, et al, still believe that the Constitution is deletable. And that makes America a weakling in ALL areas (including defense of self and allies). Don't look to the Progressive Democrats to make things any better than Stalin's USSR or Mao's China. Death and destrution are the results of marxism/socialism of any flavor throughout history.
