Letter to the editor,
Your April 15 issue featured a letter from a hateful farbrente Democrat, who called Donald Trump, “hamanesque.” Here’s what hamanesque did for Jews and Israel:
Recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and moved the U.S. embassy.
to Jerusalem, which all other presidents refused to do,
* Signed the Taylor Force Act and ceased U.S. aid to Hamas/PA which pay pensions to terrorist in Israeli prisons,
*Recognized Israel’s annexation of the Golan,
*Updated American policy towards “settlements,”
*Withdrew from the JCPOA and raised sanctions on Iran, allowing no waivers,
*Signed Executive Order 13899, “Combating Anti-Semitism,” making “anti-Semitic harassment in schools and on university and college campuses” subject to Civil Rights Act of 1964 prosecution, and
*Negotiated the Abraham Accords, for which he deserves a Nobel Prize.
Donald Trump has rightly been called “a dream come true” for Jews and Israel.
Democrats harbor rabid antisemites like Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, pander to pro-Hamas protesters, ignore Executive Order 13899, removed sanctions against Iran and Hamas/PA, and stymies Israel from winning a war. Most antisemitic acts are committed by Democrat voters.
According to DeKalb County precinct records, the “orthodox” Toco Hills community voted 70% for Joe Biden in 2020. It’s depressing that Jews will rationalize and continue to overwhelmingly vote for Democrats whose policies are often inimical to Jewish interests.
