My synagogue is Orthodox but some of the people there support Obama. I once said how can a Torah observant Jew support Obama and someone said "It's not appropriate to say that in shul". I told an Ex-JDL member about that and he said "Then where should you say it, a church?".
I was dismissed from my Chabad synagogue here in Washington because I refused to share the Shabbat table with a top-level BDS Zealot and Palestinian/Anti-Israel Activist by the name of Jacob Rosenblum. So, if you think you had it bad just look at me, who lost his Jewish community and now has to pray alone on Shabbat because of it.
I really loathe the current mindset of Jews and think we keep making the same stupid mistakes generation after generation of admiring and trying to appease our enemies until its too late. My FORMER Rabbi is good friends with the BDS activist and decided because he was so loved in the synagogue that he was a more important asset to the community than a devoted Zionist/Kahanist type of Jewish member.
As much as I hate to say it more Jews care about business, stocks, golf games, vacations, cruises and go to the synagogue as a social club. They don't want to get political and if they face any pressure then they will just cave in and do whatever they can to appease the people who are challenging them, even if it means submitting and trying to make endless concessions to their enemy.
I hear a lot more talk about sports , vacations, jobs, cars we drive, etc at the various Shabbat tables I have sat at then I have about the well-being of Israel or the tyranny committed against the Jews by Muslims. Yes, these topics come up, but are few and far between compared to the other. I am thinking Jews talked about the same things back when they lived in Poland and Germany in the 1920s and 1930s at their Shabbat tables until they realized the very leaders and society they trusted had made an ultimatum to eradicate them, but by that time it was too late. Too little, too late they say.
