No matter how patriotic and how valiantly the Jews fought for and contributed to their respective European countries during World War I, particularly the German Jews, they never gained acceptance. More than 100,000 fought on the front lines, 35,000 decorated for bravery, yet a falsified census concealed their true service and betrayed their dedication to the Kaiser.
With 12,000 Jews killed in battle, one million Jews made homeless refugees, violent Polish and Lithuanian anti-Semitism, and Russians who blamed Jews for collaborating with the Germans, Jewish infrastructure (religious, social, cultural, economic) was broken. These components, combined with the accusation that Jews betrayed the Fatherland, reparations paid with the devalued Deutschmark, and the destroyed middle class, cleared the way for Jewish youths to eschew their background and become secularists and Marxists.
The Great Depression brought unemployment and starvation to the German people, Hitler, death and destruction. The Jewish mindset became resolutely patriotic and devoted to liberal values over economic wellbeing.
Therefore, while President Obama’s policies imperil our economic security – the weakened stockmarket; raised college tuition, excessive debts and few job prospects for graduates; endangered medical care for seniors; and reduced tax deductions for charitable contributions, placing Jewish schools, nursing homes, and synagogues in financial difficulty, yet the Jewish Americans remain steadfast. They will not connect the dots despite the current climate of 23.1 million unemployed; fallen median income and welfare spending at an all-time high; 46.2 million in poverty; 46 million on food stamps; 111 percent increase in gas prices; a $16 trillion national debt; and a healthcare law that will increase taxes on small businesses, decrease healthcare quality with added patients and fewer physicians, a (Death Panel) board to determine patient eligibility, 30 million uninsured Americans, and a cost of $1.9 trillion partially paid with a $716 billion cut from Medicare. Famed economist, Robert Wiedemer’s predicts 50% unemployment, a 90% stock-market crash, and 100% annual inflation in 2013.
Fully accepting the liberal agenda and multicultural values, the Jews offer no opposition to the gradual erosion of our freedom of speech, as Obama implements a “fairness doctrine” to curb speech that offends Muslims. Words like "Jihad," "Islamist," "radical Islam," "Islamic terrorism," required to describe Islamic radicalism and terrorism, have been banned, their removal from FBI manuals posing a threat to our security, and the study of Islamist doctrine by government officials outlawed. Neither is there opposition to the $1.5 billion given to Egypt each year, or to the pro-Islamic textbooks used in the Saudi-supported US colleges and universities where advocates of boycott-divestment-sanction platforms congregate and riot, putting Jewish students at risk.
The more we apologize and submit to Islamic ideology, the more frequent and deadly the terrorist attacks on Jews and Christians worldwide. Mirroring the “no-go” zones in Europe, Dearborn, Michigan has become a Muslim city protected by local police, endangering non-Muslims. Obama has put enough “daylight” betweenIsrael and the US to warrant free sunglasses for all, paid for by his generous welfare program (our taxes) or illegally solicited funds from foreigners – through my.barackobama.com, a site managed by a Palestinian-rights activist in Maine. Further, the Arab boycott of Israel is being pushed illegally in the US with the express purpose of seeking Israel’s economic destruction and preventing peace, surely encouraged by Obama’s failure to visit Israel during his term of office, signaling the acceptability and justification of boycott.
The mindless adoration ignores national security issues despite the exposure of Islamists in our administration’s advisory roles who impact US policy and laws that compromise Israel and advance civilizational jihad, whose mantra is “Death to Jews!”
The most recent is Salam al-Maratyatito, founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Committee and supporter of Hamas and Hezbollah, who blames Israel for jihadist attacks on the US. He will represent the US at the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe’s human rights conference.
Arif Alikahn, Assistant Security for the Department of Homeland Security, praised by CAIR, who was instrumental in removing Los Angeles’s Muslim terror-tracking plan and derailing LAPD’s efforts to monitor the city’s Muslim community.
Mohamed Elibiary, Homeland Security Advisory Committee Member, who praised the “Great Islamic Visionary,” Ayatollah Khomeini at a 2004 conference. He is known for leaking highly sensitive intelligence documents to a Texas media outlet.
Rashad Hussain, State Department Special Envoy to the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and Deputy Associate Counsel to President Obama, who focuses on national security, and media, science and technology issues. He is an MB advocate who participates in the annual Muslim Students Association (MSA) annual conference of 600 college chapters that engage in extremism and closely collaborates with other Brotherhood fronts.
Imam Mohamed Magid, president for the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) with alleged ties to the MB, and the Muslim Student Association. ISNA completed a $21 million headquarters in Indianapolis using MB funds.
Eboo Patel, an Obama Administration Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships, he spoke at an MSA and ISNA convention with Tariq Ramadan, and Siraj Wahhaj, who advocates the Islamic takeover of America.
Huma Abedin, Deputy Chief of Staff to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who has family ties to the MB. Huma’s mother, Saleha, is involved with the MB; her brother, Hassan, sits on the Board of the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies, which includes Al-Qaeda associate, Omar Naseef, and the notorious MB leader, Sheikh Youssef Qaradawi.
Not only will these American Jews not connect the dots, but refuse to see them even when glaringly evident, such as reports of unconditional billions of dollars sent to the United Nations and Egypt’s MB, the millions sent to restore mosques in 55 countries, our President’s bargaining with Iran or Russia, condoning our weakened military and strangled Department of Security. It makes one wonder how large the dots have to be before we recognize that we are venturing down the same path we traveled not so long ago, and what once again drives us to the abyss of annihilation – to another Yad Vashem, another Holocaust Memorial Day.This is Pathological Tenderness – the affinity for one’s enemies over one’s own people.
“I weep for the liberty of my country,” – Andrew Jackson
The last days of the 2012 presidential election are a study in contrasts. Barack Obama has chosen to end his final campaign with an appeal both sour and small — Big Bird, binders and Romnesia. It is little wonder that Mitt Romney’s personal favorability rating now exceeds the president’s. Obama’s closing message is remarkable for its aggression, mocking tone and sheer triviality.
Obama has be-littled himself.
The problem is that he did not have a record that he could run on and had to spend a billion dollars going ugly
THIS IS AN ALL TIME LOW FOR A US PRESIDENT.
I predict that Obama will deliver the snottiest, most ungracious concession speech in American history - with his moocher standing next to him glaring at the cameras.

Thankyou, TK, for another fact-filled and interesting article. The premise that the blindspot which today's Jews have towards to the evils of Liberal dogma is rooted in the European experience is truly fascinating and compelling. You may have helped me to arrive at an answer to this modern-day connundrum.
I am exploring the Link which you provide on "Pathological Tenderness" at te end of your essay. Wonderful phrase. Thankyou.
Keep up your excellent work.
