Some of us voted for Donald Trump three times, and enthusiastically followed his ascendancy to the presidency a second time and cheered him on each step of the way.  And yes, some of us are Independents, who left both parties years ago.

But he is stigmatizing the second largest religious group in the world, by threatening to ban Muslims from the USA.[2]. He has allied himself—and by implication us—with Israel's butcher Benjamin Netanyahu, the "Settlers" and rabid Zionists who have destroyed the lives of non-Jews in Palestine, or whose lives will never be the same.[3]

Franklin D. Roosevelt and General George Marshall opposed the creation of Israel; and they were correct and omniscient.  It has spread death and destruction throughout the region; and the world will cheer when it ceases to exist.[4]

Indeed, efforts to stifle criticism of the Apartheid state by Jews and non-Jews alike are abhorrent, especially when they are conducted on a global basis by Israeli Jews.[5]  American Jews are Americans, who owe no allegiance to the Apartheid state.[6]

Even if Trump pulls back from a partial or total ban on Muslim travel, the damage has been done. Again, he has allied himself—and by implication us—with the butchers in the rogue state of Israel, which may be doomed.[7]

Lastly, all efforts by Israelis or other Jews to influence decision-making in the USA must be investigated thoroughly and sanctioned.  Like a pimple on an elephant, the tiny Apartheid state's influence in the United States is "disproportionate."
