Because a Jew is always struggling to overcome his fear of worthlessness, he spends his time finding ways to prove that he not only has a big fortune, but that he has an even bigger heart. That is why when he gives to charity, he gives it to a hospital that will put his name on it. He becomes a member of a club where there are special events during which his acts of charity will be announced. He joins a temple where a rabbi will give him a special seat.

His main ambition is to become rich enough to give so much to charity that he will be asked to be the main speaker at a dinner in his honor, where pictures of him will be taken all night so that he can look at them the rest of his life to remind himself that he only made money because of his compassion and selfless devotion to humanitarian causes and not for himself.

That is why when the far-right Republicans dedicate themselves to fighting for the survival of Israel – even to the point of having to overcome Democratic Party opposition to what the Republicans consider the biblical God-given right of the Jewish people to possess the Holy Land – instead of being met with appreciation and applause they are met with suspicion, as though they were building a smokescreen for their basic anti-Semitism.

Because of their blind, deaf, and dumb love for the Democrats, the Jews find themselves in a one-sided, self-destructive relationship. They have married into a party that cares little or nothing about Jews here or in the State of Israel.
