Israelis are VERY TOUGH people. Don't go over well with American Jews.

I'll try, and keep trying. The "why" is elusive.

Just as today's American liberals believe Americans are the problem, American Jews believe Israel is the problem. I think it's the younger generation, their education, influences.

Most American Jews support a Palestinian state, while most Israelis say hell no.

American Jews don't worry about missiles being lobbed into their neighborhoods on a daily basis, even believing that ONLY if Israel would return to '67 borders, their enemies would vanish, the same mindset believes America is the source of all the world's problems.

I feel if American Jews visited Israel and experienced reality, their view would change.

Then again, why do minorities in America continue voting democrat when it's democrat policies enslaving generations of minorities?
