How the Democrats betrayed the Jews – UnHerd
Unprotected, we appealed to Power for decent consideration as Human Beings; and Power in America, the Democratic Party, was always happy to take our money and our votes, and ask us to wait in the Outer Office. As it does today.
The position of the Jews changed in 1948 with the foundation of the Jewish State. But the habits of 2,000 years, now of Liberal Jews (in the diaspora and in Israel) have not changed. These appeal, in the name of humanity, to powers which may believe in humanity, but, unfortunately, do not consider Jews human.
And so, the carnival barker titillates us with the thrills available for a pittance: one dime, one tenth part of the dollar. But the sick thrill of antisemitism also has a price: the surrender of reason, and, with it, of conscience.

The events of October 7 were horrible beyond speaking or even understanding, yet they also speak for themselves. Many groups can tell similar stories, or try to, such as Christians persecuted in Africa or Muslims in China. Yet no one has a case to put before God and Man quite like the Jews.
