Perhaps I didn’t listen long enough to hear references to the following, but Donald Trump is just too easy a target. He is a reprehensible human being and a bigot but an even larger threat to Jews is the “progressive” Left. There is not a group on the Left untainted by anti-Semitism — Black Lives Matter, anti-poverty groups, Queers against Israel apartheid, radical feminists, Canada’s Green Party, Canadian Labour, the NDP — with no voice of opposition from within.
Let’s not become too self-righteous about Donald Trump and lose our sense of survival by ignoring other more serious threats to Israel and to Jews.
