"Somebody, who is dead now, wanted the United States to commit its Treasury to Israeli interests without limitation or reservation. So that is what we should do."

Not really the best argument. Especially to people who are paying $10.00 for a half-gallon of milk, which isn't even a half-gallon.

The pro-Israel people have enough money and credit to look after themselves. They can apply for international relief if they run into financial difficulty and if they qualify. However, their goal has been an independent country, so they must bear the burdens with the benefits. They're not owed anything.

With a $28 Trillion dollar GDP, I hardly think that the military support we give to Israel is going to cause our economy to collapse or the reason for our inflation. Perhaps you should focus on the multi-trillions spent for the non-infrastructure bill, providing healthcare to illegal aliens and the printing of money. But it's always satisfying to choose a convenient scapegoat for our troubles. At the current time, we spend less than 3% of our budget on the military overall and a fraction of that goes for contributing to Israel's military. I guess you also oppose our troop deployments in Europe, Japan, SK and elsewhere. Those are wealthy countries which can defend themselves, right?

If an alien is sick may infect a “legal”. A practical argument, additional one of humanity.

I don't care about the problems in other countries. We have monumental problems in the United States. Until these problems are solved, and hopefully for a long time thereafter, foreign interests looking to leach off the American taxpayer should have to look elsewhere.

If you need this in the form of a policy proposal: (1) end endless war; (2) secure the border; and (3) re-build the industrial base. Good times solves a lot of problems.

If you're keen on helping Israel, whatever that means, lace up your boots, pick up a rifle, and get your ass over there. That mess will only be solved by one side liquidating the other. I don't really know what this means, but it's obvious to me that none of it concerns the American taxpayer.

Your continued devotion to Israel is inspiring. I too so pray that the American Jewish population listen to your words and that of the late Joe Lieberman.

Maybe it is his age or his strokes, or just simply being "out of it", but Dershowitz really lives in a bubble. Now he threatens the Democratic Party with the loss of all Jewish votes. I wonder if Dershowitz consulted with AIPAC about this, given that AIPAC has bribed most of Congress and the Biden family. AIPAC will not want that money to go to waste.

First, as an Ashkenazi, Dershowitz is hardly anoited as a spokesman for Sephardic, Hasidics, Falashas, Lubavitchers Mizrahis and a dozen other Jewish sects which generally are unsympathtic to Dershowitz's recitation of propaganda. Secondly, count all types of Jews and you come up with 2% of the American population. 2 PERCENT ! America has more of every other ethnic group except Pitcairn Islanders. More illegal immigrants than that have crossed the Rio Grande the last year, and they are voting Democratic. Dershowitz's "threat" invites the Democrats to sing "Got along without you Before I met you, Gonna get along without you now". Singing that song to Dershowitz and his Israeli handlers will be blow for American Independence and Democracy, and may well snatch the 2024 election despite Biden's mental otherworldliness. and Harris' longing for the arms of Willie Brown.

The thing is Professor why are you still a Democrat?

The history real history of the Dems is that they think like a tribe and are the party of slavery since before the Civil war and there was no change over, switch like they want people to believe.

Now a few years ago I looked up the stats.

The Dems never really supported Israel ever.

40% of Democrats supported Israel while 90% of Republicans did.

This was not a love for Israel but just knowing it is a strategic base in the Middle East with a Democratic ally. Yet Dems never supported Israel. Not really.

Sometimes it seems you absolutely are too stubborn to give into facts.

I have thought your articles on Israel to be spot on.

But why you still believe in such a hateful party I will never know.

And btw liberal Jews are still voting for Biden against Israel and for terrorists to take over.

You know Biden is not running things.

And look how many Jews themselves hate Israel and other Jews. Soros, Bernie Sanders.

This racist antisemitism is stronger and stronger.

The media did a great job brainwashing people to hate Trump.

I know you don’t like him but why is another question. And I won’t got further with that.

I’d like you to debate Mark Levin. You would not win.

Just as you did not win against Dr. Jasser on the topic of FGM which we still have no laws against and is going on big time.

But why you are a Dem and not independent is simply a mind set you can’t seem to get over.

Black people know way more than intellectual white people who are the ones the most brainwashed.

However it should scare everyone that terrorists want to take over the world while allowing genocide of the Jews or any population.

I frankly think the lies about Israel over decades and decades have made people think Jews are a threat. The Jews did nothing to counter this over the years.

Nothing.
