| 56. Considering that most Jewish Americans DO NOT want a war with Iran... |

Edited on Mon Jul-16-07 02:59 PM by LeftishBrit
(and indeed according to a poll a few months ago, neither do most Israelis),
why would anyone be accused of anti-semitism for opposing a war with Iran?????
If someone is accused of anti-semitism, it would be for other reasons!
What people MIGHT be afraid of, is being accused of being unpatriotic or soft on terra, if they don't at least pay lip-service to the Bush/ Cheney line on Iran.

| -97-0 Vote for Lieberman Amendment! 97 Senators want War with Iran??? (including Feingold?) |
