Lone soldiers aren't the only exception. While most American Jews are the Chuck Shumer or Bernie Sanders-type, anti-American socialist, there are also a significant--and, thankfully, growing--number of American Jews who lean toward the more conservative--American--values.

That said, DFM Hotovely is dead-on correct regarding the sheltered utopian delusion-bubble in which most (socialist) American Jews sequester themselves. They see outside of their sheltered bubble only superficially, having no serious connection to the real world. Ironically, parts of their socialist delusion-bubble are, at this very moment, bursting all around them.

It's no less detrimental to Israel to overlook ðンムレðンムワðンムᅠðンムᄀ American Jews' socialist and utopian delusional denial of the real world than it is to wrongly ascribe secular Israelis' misojudaism to American Jews.
8. Thanks to a Jewish French soldier, Israel exists
dan ,   Kfar Saba   (11.24.17)
There are many Jewish soldiers serving their countries.

I suggest she tour various military cemeteries, and start
with Ramla.
9. Hotovely: Comment on US Jews
Jacques ,   NSW   (11.24.17)
I heartily agree with her, they are the most bludgers spoilt brats on this planet. She is telling the truth this is not only in USA but in Canada, and Australia , I can see where the prime minister coming from. He should tell the truth to his own people, that they are loyal to Israel only for their own interest.

10. 100% right
David ,   New york   (11.24.17)
Most American Jews don't know israel or the Middle East from a hole in the wall, yet they parrot the drivel the Democratic Party feeds them.
She hit the nail on the head
11. THE TRUTH HURTS
TEL EM STRAIGHT ,   SAFED HONESTY   (11.24.17)
Nobody enjoys hearing the truth .
12. HOW DARE SHE ??
TEL EM STRAIGHT ,   SAFED HONESTY   (11.24.17)
How dare she tell the truth?? israeli chiuzpah.
13. היהודים הליברלים
יחיאלה ,   paris   (11.24.17)
הדור האחרון שונאים את ישראל רק מעטים מהם הולכים לצבע או מבקרים בארץ תראו מה הולך באוניברסטאות האמאריקאיות אנטישמיות יומאת מגדר הרגיל והרבה תודות ליהדות הזאת ומה שהשרה אמרה זה נכון
14. Deputy FM, Bling, Miss Thing!
Stringbeans ,   Israel   (11.24.17)
Where exactly did she do her national service? Atlanta, Georgia! Yep that makes her a real expert on things Jewish American and on the convenience of Jewish lives the world over!
P.S. let's not forget to decorate Temple Mount with Jewish flags! The lady has a way with words alright!
15. & were is Benassi?
Birdie ,   Israel   (11.24.17)
he comments on EVERYTHING! Where are his words here?
I suppose he's confused because FM Hotovely has tossed him a serious curve ball! Too funny really...the ones he sucks up to all the time...have hit him hard!
16. The Deputy FM is so right she's 100% wrong!
abner ,   Israel   (11.24.17)
She should either stop being such a smart mouth or she should resign!
17. Take the shovel away-the hole is already too deep
Shep ,   Memphis   (11.23.17)
This person (I'm afraid to call her a woman for fear the witch hunters will want my throat) needs to zip her lips. She keeps putting her foot in her mouth.
18. Of course we are different.
Michael ,   California, USA   (11.24.17)
Israelis are in the Levant, they have traits peculiar to the area in which they live. The difference grows and nothing can be done about it. Getting along is the goal, being alike is an impossible dream. Differences should be embraced as desirable and should be welcomed.
19. Right but not clever.
tiki ,   belgium   (11.24.17)
But sometimes the truth must be said.

Without many Israeli soldiers giving their lives to free Jerusalem's old Jewish quarter and Judea & Samaria, the offended liberal Jews of America wouldn't be able to protest there today.

Without Israeli soldiers, not Americans Jews, risking their lives, Israel wouldn't exist today.

America gives the weapons.....Israeli's their live!



20. The Lone Soilders
Tova ,   Canada   (11.26.17)
who move to Israel understand that without Israel no Jew is safe. Not in the US and no in Canada and not in Europe or anyplace on earth. Jews who disconnect themselves from Israel have no place to hide. I went to Israel for this 1st time in 1970. My jewish friends went to florida. they could not undertand why I prefer to go to Israel rather than Florida. I went to Israel and it was in Israel with all her social problems, religious and political divide that I understood why GOD chosen this land. When I returned to Toronto, I felt so disconnected from the Jews here as they still had their primitive way of thinking and absolutely no knowledge of Israel. All they talked about was the holocaust. Sorry Jews - it was the holocuast that finally made Jews realize Israel is the home that GOD chose for His people. It boogles the mind how some Jews think by deny themselves who they are somehow living in America is going the save. Jews are free in the United States/Canada because of Israel, not because these countries are pro or anti Israel. Jews talent is in every nation. And our history teaches us to survive. I have great respect for the Lone Soilders.
