    Trump's support of militant rightwing Zionism in Israel is being driven by American Christian fundamentalists who cling to biblical prophesy about the significance of Israel.
    Yes, but that's because Jewish media has used Christianity as a tool to advance Zionism. As a religion, Christianity can be twisted to advance any agenda.

    Probably the same things Jews in America have always been fighting for. More non-white immigration and funding for Israel.

    Let me get this straight

    Reputable polling show that American Jews are more likely than Christians to oppose Trump's enabling of Israeli Zionist policy, but some how you are putting the blame for it on Jews?

    Notice that it says the list isn't even complete.

    Throughout the Middle Ages, people would accept Jewish immigrants, the Jews would end up destroying the community, then they'd get chased out. This process happened in many different countries across Europe, which is why Jews now have the dishonor of having been kicked out of over 100 countries. It's true that in certain cases, the Jews were required to live in ghettos, which of course keeps people from assimilating. But this usually happened after the Jews wrecked the country and was a precursor to a full pogrom.

    Jews aren't a monolith. Many Jews don't care about Israel and think it's better to focus on the international Jewish community. However, there are also Jews who think they're better off building up Israel as a superpower, and these are the Jews that use Christianity as a tool for Zionism. This is why Christians are more likely to support Zionism than Jews. It's simply because there are more Internationalist Jews than Zionist Jews. Of course, the thing that the Internationalists and the Zionists have in common is they're both using their influence to fight for the Jews while exploiting Americans.

    Harris’ two step-children deserve the credit for that mashup of “mom” and “Kamala,” CNN reported last year.

    Despite the fact that their father — Harris’ husband, Douglas Emhoff — is Jewish, it’s unclear if they realized their nickname for their stepmom is the exact pronunciation of an endearing Yiddish word: “mamele.”

    Mamele, which uses the affectionate Yiddish diminutive -le, literally means “little mama” and is a term of endearment for moms.

    I thought Beau used to call her that. I found it funny that it had Jewish roots too. I'm sure it was more about the pronunciation of her first name.

    returning Polish Jews encountered an antisemitism that was terrible in its fury and brutality. The most shocking such episode was the Kielce pogrom – a violent attack in July 1946 by Polish residents of Kielce against survivors who had returned, in which 42 Jews were murdered. The Kielce pogrom became a turning point for Holocaust survivors; it was for them the ultimate proof that no hope remained for rebuilding Jewish life in Poland. The pogrom sounded an internal alarm: during the months that followed it, survivors fled from Eastern Europe any way they could. If approximately 1,000 Jews per month left Poland between July 1945 and June 1946, immediately after the pogrom the numbers spiked dramatically: in July 1946, almost 20,000 fled; in August 1946 that number swelled to 30,000, and in September 1946, 12,000 Jews left Poland.

    Yet, the murder of 42 Jews in Kielce, as monstrous and harrowing a crime as it was, was not the only story of murder in the post-war period in Poland. As many as one to two thousand Jews may have been murdered after the war by Poles.2 Kielce, however, was the proverbial "straw that broke the camel's back." Kielce reflected the stark betrayal of a Jewish community that was trying to reestablish itself, at a time when it should have received compassion and sympathy from its neighbors. Those who had survived the Holocaust only to experience murder at the hands of their own countrymen could not bear this additional tragedy.

    I think he actually admitted that; either his dad or uncle. I forget the details since it's not their fault -- he needs to man up and own it all.

    Pew is a highly reputable polling organization.
    According to their results and all other things being equal, if there were more Jewish citizens in this country (say 40% of population rather than 2%) there would be less support here for Israel's hardline Zionist policy.

    That directly contradicts your claim that American jews are to blame for Trump's support of Israeli Zionist policy.

    The support for Israeli government's hardline Zionism is largely coming independently from fundamentalist Christians

    We're talking about percentages here. The number of Internationalist Jews would offset the number of Zionist Jews, thus making the support for Zionism relatively smaller. It's like if America took in a million of immigrants who were left-handed. The number of right-handed people wouldn't shrink, but their percentage would.
    Now that being said, the culture of fundamentalist Zionist Christianity was created by Zionist Jews. Even though most Jews are Internationalists, the Zionist minority are responsibly for the modern Christian Zionism we see in America.
