Memo To American Jews: We Don’t Think Democratic Leaders Are Serious About Combatting Political Islam

John Kerry is a member of the centrist DLC wing of the Democratic Party, and is only two years out from being the party’s leader. Here’s what he said in Davos this weekend while sitting next to the former President of Iran:

Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry slammed the foreign policy of the Bush administration on Saturday, saying it has caused the United States to become “a sort of international pariah.”… “So we have a crisis of confidence in the Middle East — in the world, really. I’ve never seen our country as isolated, as much as a sort of international pariah for a number of reasons as it is today.”

Keep in mind that he’s talking about the US being “a sort of international pariah” while sitting next to the former President of Iran. Iran of course being the country that is currently under a UN sanctions regime because they’re building nukes and promising to wipe out a UN member state. So there’s that.

Remember the time that Kerry said that if he was elected, he would either send Jimmy Carter or James Baker to dictate terms to Israel for an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal? And then that other time when four out of five American Jews voted for him anyway, because they found that totally reasonable? Good times.
