They do not know or have forgotten that this was precisely the role Henry Kissinger played for Richard Nixon whose animus against Jews paled next to the incandescent contempt of the current crowd. This is a role at which he already is practiced. As columnist Debbie Schlussel recently explained, he helped to introduce apologists for Arab terror to the White House back in 1992. Lieberman has provided great services as a lightning rod for Clinton, chastising the President in words that do not lead to meaningful actions. This subordination of education to a bureaucracy at war with Torah teachings is anathema to truly Orthodox Jews.
Jewish law holds that abortion is murder, plain and simple.
There is some disagreement about whether it is first degree murder if it occurs before the 40th day after conception. But main streams of Jewish teaching are that each soul is divinely created by God and intended to hasten redemption, to re-gather the broken vessels of fallen creation. Abortion directly affronts this divine purpose. Chapters 17 and 19 of Leviticus are explicit on this matter of urgent citizen concern. These facts will not be aired in the mainstream press, but this is not the worst of the matter, for Jewish Americans especially.
