Israel/Palestine

before it does to the party what's happened to the British Labour Party, and alienate pivotal Jewish voters, not to mention the vast American pro-Israel mainstream.

I am 100% for abortion rights, marriage equality, and the environment, which is why I'm a Democrat in the first place. I've been one since I was a teen during Bush v. Kerry, and in fact, I remained one when I could vote because I saw the contrast between Clinton's Democratic competence/success vs. Bush's Republican failure.

But my people's safety, the Jewish people, must come first, and the delegitimization, and obsessive demonization and double standards against their state must end. Also, our votes must not be taken for granted by a party we are, quite frankly, the fundraising backbone for. And a rare group with a longer D-voting record than AAs, and nearly as high a number. Gratitude/appreciation matters.

Palestinian terrorists have been offered a state on numerous occasions (even before 1948; see Peel Commission, and even before 1988, see Alon Plan), and have blown up and hijacked planes, murdered Olympians, killed cruise ship passengers (Achille Lauro), and blown themselves up across the world; yet unlike any other group, they get away with it! No one else would be rewarded so handsomely for it!
