Voting for Your Own Destruction :: By Jan Markell

More than once, I have written about the mystery of Jews who seem to support their own demise by voting with, and standing by, those who hate them. Some Jews voted into office Ilhan Omar in my home state of Minnesota. Others voted for Mayor Zohran Mamdani in New York. No Jew is now safe there.

Many Jews voted for two anti-Semites – Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama. No two U.S. Presidents did more damage to Israel than these men – yet they got the Jewish vote by and large. Obama, a man with obvious Islamic leanings, got almost 80% of the Jewish vote.

Just 13% of Democrats even have a positive view of Israel! Most on the left seem to favor every Islamic terrorist they have ever met.

I have watched my own Jewish family members who are unbelievers vote Democrat repeatedly and have no explanation for it. They are mind-numbed from watching CNN.

Why would Minnesota Jews vote for Keith Ellison as Attorney General when his goal is Sharia Law?

Roosevelt—the Holocaust Enabling President

In the 1940s, the Jews overwhelmingly supported a President who was their enemy—Franklin Roosevelt. Over 90% of Jews voted for him in 1944. He looked the other way at the evils of the Holocaust.

Over 70% of American Jews voted for Hilary Clinton rather than Israel’s greatest Presidential friend, Donald Trump. In 2024, Donald Trump had proved himself an ally of Israel, yet 71% of Jews voted for Kamala Harris.

Has Rising Anti-Semitism Moved Jews to the Right?

Shockingly, even after October 7 and the rise in anti-Semitism, not that many moved to the center or the right politically. In spite of the fact that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said repeatedly that Donald Trump is the greatest friend Israel has ever had, most Jews would not vote for him.

Where is the disconnect?

Here are a few thoughts:

I read the whole article, and Jan is right as usual. It's heartbreaking.

Have not read it yet, but one of our doctors once said he felt that Jewish people had been abused so long they always felt they should be on the side of the little guy, so always voted left. Unfortunately they have not adjusted their mind set as times, and party views, changed.

Started reading, and yep to #1.

So very sad. But Jews are continuing to reap the harvest that they have sown for thousands of years: rejecting God's ways in favor of their own. As God told Moses: "They are a stiff-necked people." (Exodus 32:9) There are two Hebrew words that make up the phrase translated "stiff-necked". The first word qasheh (קָשֶׁה) means grievous, churlish. The second word 'oreph (עֹרֶף) literally means the back of the neck, but metaphorically means an obstinate heart. God knew His people, the descendants of Abraham, were a stubborn and rebellious people. And that, along with the blindness that has afflicted them in part for the past 2,000 years, is why they cannot see clearly to act in their own best interests.
