I oppose this agreement with every fiber of my being. I believe it is a dangerous capitulation and a strategic disaster.
I oppose it because it is bad for America.
But to demand that American Jews pressure the President of the United States to make foreign policy decisions based primarily on Israel, as though our political duty is to a foreign state rather than to our own country, is borderline treasonous.
Do not tell American Jews that their role is to exert pressure on their own president for the sake of Israel. It is duplicitous, disgraceful, and dangerously close to the very dual-loyalty smear that Jews have spent generations fighting.
The President should reject this deal because America must not appease the worldโs leading state sponsor of terror. America must not reward hostage-taking, nuclear blackmail, regional aggression, and genocidal threats. America must not abandon its own credibility or its own strategic interests. Not because of Israel or any other foreign nation.
American Jews do not owe political obedience to Israel, nor is our patriotism conditional on Israeli needs.
