Reply #100: I'm not Jewish, but [View All]

[amandabeech]

I occasionally have heard Jewish-American friends and colleagues say, "I vote Israel."

I can certainly understand where they are coming from and I can certainly understand Jewish-Americans considering U.S. policy toward Israel in deciding for whom to vote, but I find it troubling when it seems as though they do not take into account the best interests of the U.S. in the least.

Fortunately, those who vote based solely on U.S. policy toward Israel seem to be very much in the minority.

Thank you for bringing this up in a thoughtful and appropriate manner, Deb.
