| Yom Kippur was yesterday, and that's the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. | |
| I think, I wonder what percentage of American Jews fast. | |
| I'd be very curious. | |
| I know in Israel, it's the great majority of people, even secular Israelis. | |
| Very, very few Israelis ignore Yom Kippur. | |
| It's a fascinating thing. | |
| You can walk on the busiest boulevards. | |
| There are no cars. | |
| So my column today was prompted by the whole point of introspection on that day. | |
| And it's titled, A Reminder to American Jews, Civilization is Fragile. | |
| And what we're witnessing is the breakdown of civilization by the left, which has contempt for Western civilization. | |
| remember Jesse Jackson led a march was it in the 1970s or not not 70s 80s maybe 90s 80s or 90s it's a while ago a lot of demonstration at Stanford University hey hey ho ho Western Civ has got to go they don't deny their content for Western civilization so why is it an issue So | |
| two-thirds of American Jews vote Democrat. | |
| And most Jews are liberal, not left. | |
| By the way, as I point out, vast numbers of non-Jews are left as well. | |
| But people ask the question more often about Jews. | |
| Anyway, as a Jew, I'm talking to Jews in that piece. | |
| And I'm simply making the point. | |
| If civilization breaks down... | |
| We're going to get hurt. | |
| Almost always Jews get hurt first, never last, but first. | |
| Why would Jews side with the people who want to bring America down? | |
| Well, two-thirds do. | |
| A third don't, by the way. | |
| People need to remember that. | |
| A third of Jews vote for the president. | |
| At least a third. | |
| That's not insignificant. | |
| If a third of blacks voted for the president, he would be re-elected in a landslide. | |
| It's actually, in some ways, a bigger puzzle. | |
| Why do blacks vote Democrat? | |
| All they've done is hurt them. | |
| Look at the cities. |
