26. I didn't say it wasn't a factor.

I simply stated others things, which in my opinion are more influential on his thinking. The thing is it (Israel) is not the overwhelming factor; at least I have never seen one person demonstrate it, but have seen many claim it. The accusation he is more loyal to Israel, made twice in this thread, is an old anti-Semitic canard made against Jews, even before the advent of Israel.

The Jews were more loyal to Communism (The Soviet Union), so said the Nazis. The Jews were more loyal to Facism (Germany), so said the Soviets. Both claims were made against Jews in both countries at the onset of WWII. It goes back even further.

ETA: Now you have two more examples! (4:12am CST)
