Gallup poll shows Jewish support for Obama down to 60%

obama is a blood drinking shape shifting reptile via sherdog.net

the Jewish community may not support Obama financially. That's very important, because in the 2008 elections, Jews provided about 60% of the Democrats' money.This time they may not even do that. The money may not come at all. via israelmatzav.blogspot.com

No, Not All Jews Are Liberal--And They Are A Growing Presence In Conservative Media

If you give us a viable candidate, we will vote Republican. But if you expect us to vote for Sarah Palin, you’ve got to be crazy. - Disenchanted Jewish Democrat, in No Exodus, Politico, July 5, 2011

Many reviews already have appeared of "The Undefeated," the soon-to-be-released documentary about Sarah Palin's tenure in Alaska. Yet none of them - even in The Los Angeles Times, Huffington Post or Politico.com - mentions that nearly all of the film's many pro-Palin media talking heads are Jews.

Benjamin Korn, Jews on the Rise in Conservative 'New Media', July 7, 2011

Jews are known for being liberal. They are also known for consistently, if not persistently, voting for Democrats. And that is not going to change--in the short term.
But that does not change the fact that Jews are becoming prominent Conservative voices.
In the example above of Jews who enthusiastically support Sarah Palin, Korn lists: Internet news mogul Andrew Breitbart, nationally syndicated radio talk show host Mark Levin and L.A.'s radio phenom Tammy Bruce. The list does not end there. There is Matt Drudge, whose website averages 30 million hits per day--and close to a billion hits each month month. Other Jewish Conservative voices include:

• Binyamin Jolkovsky, who started Jewish World Review in the late 1990s by Binyamin Jolkovsky
• IsraelNationalNews.com (Arutz Sheva) which had also operated a pirate radio network
• Michael Savage
• Dennis Prager
• Michael Medved, who--along with Prager are on the board of the GOP-oriented Jewish Policy Council
• Aaron Klein, senior correspondent for WorldNetDaily.com and a weekly columnist for The Jewish Press
• Rabbi Shmuley Boteach a political centrist with an Orthodox point of view who founded the L'Chaim Society at Oxford University
• David Horowitz of FrontPageMag.com
• Andrew Breitbart, publisher of BigPeace.com on foreign policy, BigHollywood.com on the film industry and BigJournalism.com
• William Kristol, founding editor of The Weekly Standard and Fox News commentator
• Charles Krauthammer, commentator at Fox and syndicated columnist at The Washington Post
• Jennifer Rubin, writing her Right Turn blog at The Washington Post
• Jonathan Tobin, formerly executive editor of Commentary, and now full-time editor of Commentary's Contentions blog.
• Caroline Glick, deputy editor of the Jerusalem Post, columnist and founder of Latma TV.

Perhaps one of the things most noticeable about Jewish Conservatives is that they have as a group not been noticeable--perhaps because they are becoming more commonplace.

Korn concludes:

Certainly there is another reason why Jews, per se, have attracted so little notice in the conservative new media: the change in American conservatism itself. Ethnically diverse and intellectually formidable, today's conservatism is reliably pro-Israel, comfortably Judeo-Christian and for the most part promotes a nuanced social agenda.

In a movement that is credible and hospitable to American Jews, and from which the ethno-centrism of yore is largely absent, Jewish journalists will flourish.

Of course, the fact that Jewish Conservatives are becoming more of a force in the media does not necessarily mean that Jews as a group are going to start voting conservative--but they are a growing reminder that the Jewish Democratic vote may become something that cannot be taken for granted.

Iranian paedophile asylum seeker cannot be deported because of his human rights

(UK) 34-year-old Iranian asylum seeker Homayon Narouzzad has been jailed for 4 years in Manchester for sexually abusing 18 young girls, with some as young as 12. As he subscribes to a cult which specialises in victimhood, the court heard how Narouzzad had blamed the victims and downplayed his role during questioning.

Well, today he was sent down for following in his master's footsteps. (Just what is it with Muslims and little girls?)
But get this, Narouzzad will not be deported after his sentence because fears for his safety in Iran means his human rights may be at risk and thus he gets to remain in the UK.
And we wonder why so many Muslims trek half way around the world to come to the UK. via eye-on-the-world.blogspot.com

Muslims Demand 3 Independent Sharia States Within Britain

The notorious Muslims Against the Crusades (MAC) group have named Yorkshire towns Bradford and Dewsbury and Tower Hamlets in East London as testbeds for blanket sharia rule. The medieval ‘emirates’ would operate entirely outside British law, according to a document on the MAC website. via Sheik Yer Mami

Oslo: Green activist says she will only protest against non-violent religions

Last month, on Ascension Thursday, Natalie Mandeau (23) and Dan DeVero (22), two German F*ck for Forest activists, entered the Oslo Cathedral naked as a protest against the Church's oppression of nature and sexuality. Mandeua also pretended to have sex.
Asked why she entered a church of all places, Natalie said: I feel most close to Christianity. It's the religion which dominates where I come from, and it's Christianity which oppressed people in Europe for centuries."
Other religions have a similar attitude towards sexuality and nature, why didn't she pull such a stunt in a mosque?
"I didn't want to be killed, I want to spread love," answers Natalie. "The Muslims I know are nice and I don't know if that's what will happen, but women are stoned for wearing pants in some places." h/t Islam in Europe via dagbladet.no  and image via meta Physical Play Room Chicken Lick'n

A President of the United States who volunteered on a Kibbutz in Israel?

When Americans go to the polls in November 2012, they may have the opportunity to elect a President who volunteered on a Kibbutz in the summer of 1974. No, not Barack Hussein Obama. Michele Bachmann.

Her faith led her to some interesting places. The summer after she finished high school, Michele went to Israel and worked on a kibbutz. The trip was sponsored by Young Life, a Christian ministry. “I always had this love and appreciation for Israel because I was a Christian,” she said. “It’s the foundation of our faith. All of the Bible is about Israel.” She wanted to see the land for herself. What she found wasn’t a high-end vacation destination. She remembers the hurly burly of Ben Gurion airport, 1974: heat, soldiers with guns, customs officers at card tables on the tarmac. Chickens were everywhere. “It was pretty grubby,” she said.
The youth housing on the kibbutz was called the ghetto. Lizards climbed the walls. She would wake up at 4 a.m. and get on a flatbed truck that was pulled by an old diesel tractor. They would drive out to cotton fields to pull weeds. Armed soldiers escorted them wherever they went.
The experience has never left her mind. “If you consider what it was like in 1948,” she said, “and literally watch flowers bloom in a desert over time—I don’t know if any nation has paralleled the rise of Israel since 1948.” A member of Christians United for Israel, she’s one of Israel’s strongest supporters in Congress. One Jewish Minnesota Republican has told me of speeches at local Republican Jewish Coalition events where Bachmann has brought cheering audiences to their feet.

Read the whole thing. But don't worry. The Leftist Jews will still vote against her because she's a Christian. via israelmatzav.blogspot.com

...more likely they won't vote for her because she is Pro Life. Women would be her main draw because she is one and this seems to be the only issue that matters to them. The irony is an ethical female leader is dependent on a woman not ruling out of her gender... and it is the left that makes it all about purely identity politics. Women benefit by safety. This is not something the left has worked hard on... or what they have done has always been concluded as intending well. As a result women it the last fifty years have always come from a Conservative base, but their other base is hostile to a platform that wishes to Conserve life by not allowing citizens to assume when consciousness begins or ends. The Margaret Sangers were merely interested in curtailing the population of minorities. Best way to do that is to create legal loopholes concerning murder.
