Even Jeremy J Street Admits

...most Republican candidates express unqualified support for Israeli government policy and unprecedented backing for Israeli settlement beyond the pre-1967 Green Line.

He claims that what is happening is that

Settlements beyond the Green Line continue to expand, and doubts regarding the existence of a true partner for peace are used to justify continued procrastination in taking meaningful steps toward a two-state solution.


All too quickly on this path it will become clear that there no longer is a Green Line. Rather, there will be one state between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean left to grapple with how to remain a democratic, Jewish nation when a majority of the people living there are not Jewish.

Of course, this developing situation will force "pro-Israel" forces like Jeremy to come to terms with facts:

a) is there truly a demographic threat?  will there be a non-Jewish majority?

b) is there a threat to democracy if there is a demographic threat?

c)  are there other political resolutions other than a "one-state/no more Green Line"?

d) is the assumption that there is a "true peace partner" actually correct?

e) does Jeremy really know what he talks about?

The United States and certainly Europe are experiencing demographic shifts. I am certain the reason for this is "legal" ABORTION. Israel also allows abortion or am I wrong? If she does, it is likely that Arab Muslims who have many children by multiple wives will outnumber Jewish Israelis at some point. Abortion is a sin beyond G-d's understanding...

Jeremiah 32
32 Because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger, they, their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

33 And they have turned unto me the back, and not the face: though I taught them, rising up early and teaching them, yet they have not hearkened to receive instruction.

34 But they set their abominations in the house, which is called by my name, to defile it.

35 And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
