Winnie, you’re mistakenly conflating friend of Israel with friend of Jews. Was Bush a friend of Brazil? If his administration was, for some reason, tough with the Brazilian government (say regarding financial matters), does that by definition makes him no longer a friend of Brazilian-Americans or even of Brazilians, for that matter? (Not to conflate the mistaken notion that Israel is the state of the Jews.)

Any frum Jew who voted for Clinton in ’92 quickly regretted it.
