Free Speech for Reporters, Too, By Jane Eisner (Any one with rational and judicious intellect and wise analysis can tell the difference between one Zionis reporter and a non-Zionist one. Freedom of choice has its ranges and limits in a just, fair and unbiased, unprejudiced equitable advocacy. That is the essence of true democracy and not the otherwise)

Haaretz: U.S. Jews who put Israel first are merely exercising their democratic rights. There is nothing neither wrong nor un-American in being a single issue voter. (But democracy by definition is not the dictate of the few special interests groups. Democracy is engagement of the people in equitable solution of the social, economic, safety, security and other problems to serve the best interests of the public. It is for "We the People", not for the pro-Israel fibsters)

CNN: American Jews confront internal rancor over Israel By Joe Sterling

JTA: Last Palestinian Republican standing, and fact-checking Romney and Gingrich. (Unfortunately Palestinian Americans, or even Palestinians in the Diaspora are disunited, naive, and ignorant of the system of governance of the ir citizenship countries. They do know exactly how to peacefully influence their governments and politicians. To the majority of them ignorance of how Zionists perform and influence is a bliss. Some of them went far enough to become passive citizens while others act as cheap subservient panderers)

That this problem is made in the USA, and perpetrated and perpetuated by American local politics and foreign policy,

And that its equitable solution lies with the US Administration and through the help of the American people.
