…Much of the Jew-hatred is, of course, cast in the guise of anti-Israel sentiment, and many American Jews choose to believe that the anti-Jewish animus so prevalent in today’s America, predominantly (though not exclusively) coming from the political Left and Islamist sources, is secondary to anti-Israel animus.

And what do Democrats need to do to win back the voters they lost?
