After making the following statement, Jewish support has cooled for Trump... in addition, he has been accused of being anti-semitic and anti-Israel... what do you think?
anti-semitic, definitely not. He has been very pro Jewish. Even if this vague comment can be taken as referring to Israel, I don't think one statement not in line with Israel's position makes him anti-semitic.
anti-Israel, or more accurately - is he blaming Israel for the failed peace process, is a more difficult question. He is being intentionally vague and ambiguous, and, with us Jews always thinking the worst we definitely think he is referring to Israel when he says he knows who is at fault. Even if that is what he thinks, and I do not know that that is the case, does that make him anti-Israel? I don't think so, though it clearly does cool the fervor with which he seemed to be pro-Israel until now. While I don't think so, I know that many others do.
