<Only the former is uniquely bad and subject to judgement> What is uniquely bad is any American who touts policies that are designed to benefit Israel at the expense of the national security of the United States of America. Israel does and should look out for itself. And our support of Israel is warranted so long as Israel behaves itself -- by which I mean so long as Israel does not actively harm us or behave in ways that are blatantly illegal and unethical. But to put Israeli interests far ahead of our own interests -- indeed to push an Israeli agenda even if it damages US interests -- this sort of person should be viewed as something of a traitor in America. The invasion of Iraq was touted in no small part as a means of reducing the threat level to Israel. There is nothing wrong with that, so long as the invasion was in the interests of the United States of America. But is was not in our interests, any more than the current war mongering in relation to Iran is in our interests. Your vapid critique of what you call "the Left" is as transparent as your touting the Israeli party line. You don't care about "the Left" any more than I do. What you care about is promoting what you see as the interests of Israel at all costs.
