Who are Hillary Clinton’s advisers on Israel?
On the one hand, it seems that she is friendly with Rabbi Menachem Genack, of the Orthodox Union, a very strong advocate for Israel. Rabbi Genack and Hillary’s husband, former President Bill Clinton, enjoy a very strong bond. President Clinton was a plus for Israel.
The fact that Rabbi Genack has come out in support for Hillary is a good thing too.
On the other hand, Hillary Clinton values the advice of a certain Max Blumenthal, a rabidly anti-Israel activist.
Recent information released by the Hillary email scandal is kind of scary. In her communications with Sidney lumenthal, a close family friend of the Clintons, there are anti-Israel writings and opinions, many of which came from the pen or laptop of Sidney’s son, Max Blumenthal.
Max is a self-declared “anti-Zionist,” known for his active support of the BDS movement.
He actually calls for the dismantling of the state of Israel.
Max wrote a book caled Goliath, Life and Loathing in Greater Israel. It is filled with anti-Israel propaganda.
J.J. Goldberg of The Forward described this work as an “unpleasant book.” David Duke, on the other hand, praised it warmly.
Hillary must quickly distance herself from Blumenthal and embrace the pro-Israel stances of Rabbi Genack or she will likely lose the Jewish vote.

Here’s hoping she loses the Jewish vote in any event.
Would seem that Rabbi Geneck is a simple foil for her. Her behavior is more important than his feelings. After all, he spoke of her belief in “American Exceptionalism” and for those of us who follow the Clintons, that is laughable.
She needs her court jew, and she found him.
