Freeman and Cooper follow the old J Street saw in which Israel is supposed to give up certain lands and alter its policies in exchange for what? Certainly J Street and the UN don’t really believe that the Palestinians will ultimately affirm approaching any semblance of peace short of the ridiculous “right of return”—which will NEVER happen.

Also, Israel is supposed to stop construction in its capital city. No other country in the world has been subjected to such an absurdity. Can you imagine that the US cease construction in Washington, Britain stop building in London, France in Paris? You get the idea!

Look, I oppose Jewish settlements in the West Bank. But they make up 1.7% of the West Bank and anyone who believes that simply giving up the Jewish settlements there will bring a permanent peace is naive in the extreme. Or, like J Street, doesn’t really give a fig for Israel.

Indeed, let’s stop hearing this nonsense that J Street cares about Israel. All it does is condemn the Jewish State w/o any corresponding critique of the Palestinians or the Arab world. It tries to ingratiate the odious Judge Goldstone with US Congressmen. And it is funded by the richest of the anti-Zionists, George Soros. If the suckers who support j Street like Ms. Freeman really think that fraudulent organization truly cares about Israel, well—I have bridge to sell ‘em.

Local J Street advocates—stop buying that sickening snake oil! It comes from the same toxic well as the repugnant JVP, aka Jewish Voice for Palestine…

You all wanna see what a palestinian state would look like? and this is regardless of how many concessions Israel makes or much money the U.S. and the E.U. would through in it. all you have to do is look to labanon, tunisia, iran, yemen, egypt and so on. there’s your “palestine” and your wake up call J street. molly and company are nothing but more soros funded leftist terror apologists. speaking of which where’s janice? i miss her.

The comment I just left before this one applies to you as well. Wake up and smell the dictatorship and radical islamic aromas that comes from the arab world and are as much a part of their society as the sand beneath their feet. I know your going to right me off as a right wing racist but you know I’m right.

Your write that we as Jews leave judgment to a superior being yet your judgment of Joe Lieberman sounds rather harsh and hateful. It might have been more meaningful to judge the behavior, not the person.

Lieberman is a corrupt politician. Back before the market crash of 2000, when he sat on the Senate committee overseeing financial practices, he voted against accounting reforms that would have mitigated, if not prevented, the crash . He placed the special interests of investment houses located in his home state of Connecticut over national interests and business ethics.

Whether or not Lieberman is a Jew, whether or not he is a “friend” of Israel is irrelevant. The best “friend” Israel can have is a robust, prosperous US, not one crippled by crooked politicians like Lieberman.

I agree, Craven. But even worse than is financial shenanigans, Lieberman supported throughout Bush’s campaign Dubya’s ridiculous and costly intervention in and occupation of Iraq.

When the US should have been short-circuiting our real enemies, al Queda and Taliban in Afghanistan and NW Pakistan while they were still vulnerable, Lieberman threw his complete support to Bush and Cheney—oil men supreme—and their disgusting Iraqi caper which drew manpower and monies away from the real source of our enemies.

Indeed, even after it was proven that Bush had lied about weapons of mass destruction, Lieberman continued to support a war which resulted in thousands of unnecessary Iraqi and US deaths. For this, Lieberman and Dubya should one day be tried as war criminals.

May Lieberman’s name forever lie in infamy…

Dear Ms. Freeman and Mr. Cooper:

Do you really think that J Street cares at all about Israel when its biggest funder was responsible for the following:

In an op-ed piece in yesterday’s Washington Post concerning the upheaval in Egypt and the U.S. response, George Soros wrote that “The main stumbling block is Israel.”

RJC Executive Director Matt Brooks responded:
“Only the most obsessed opponents of Israel could weave Israel into the unfolding turmoil in Egypt. It is outrageous to lay responsibility for future peace and stability in Egypt on the doorstep of Israel, as Soros does by calling Israel the ‘main stumbling block’.

J Street has, once again, proven itself to be an organization antithetical to Israel’s well-being. Now we might think differently if it returned the money Soros donated to it. But don’t hold your breath…
