Today’s New York Times reports on the Republican Jewish Coalition, which is spending some $6.5 million on airtime in swing states like Florida, Ohio, and Nevada to target Barack Obama. The Times singles out megadonor Sheldon Adelson, whom it describes with one phrase: “a Zionist.”Adelson is one of the most widely-disparaged Republican donors in America. He’s been criticized endlessly by both the Obama administration and its allies in the press.
Barack Obama at this point certainly take Israel for granted; it is not a top voting priority for them. Obama has put Israel in so much danger that backing his program seems an awful lot like anti-Zionism. So, in a backhanded way, perhaps the Times is right: to be a good Zionist, you must oppose Obama.
