More uncovered history of the Israel Lobby. xymphora.blogspot.com I find his conclusion very interesting: >>It is not an accident that the Likudniks are extreme right-wingers. People of Chomsky’s generation seem to have missed the radical change which has occurred in Israel in the last few years. In fact, many people saw the Kibbutzim movement as one of the best hopes for social anarchy in action. That hope is dead, and Israel’s turning right is the logical conclusion to a society based on expressly racist grounds, rising out of its reliance on ideas from 19th century ethnic nationalism. Why Israel can make this work, when all the successful countries in the world have turned away from this model, is a mystery. Is it just a coincidence that every single progressive person in the world who isn’t Jewish vehemently opposes the violent racism of the state of Israel? Or are we to accept the Zionist explanation that every progressive person in the world is an anti-Semite?<<

I don't think most Jews know what is in the Talmud, let alone live by its "rules of conduct" . That said there is no question most Jews regard themselves as part of a chosen people far superior to gentiles. And in this they may be correct considering the huge Jewish overepresentation at the upper levels of academia, science, Wall Street, media, law, politics, billionaires,etc. which has been a fact of life for centuries (although never as much as today). But the idea that that this superiority in the skills of life and money making translates into any kind of moral superiority is a BIG LIE IMHO as israeli massacres, land theft, and aggression have shown time and again.
