all Jews. Its ridiculous.
Young people do not have the same fealty to Israel as older folks. Not because of anti semitism- but because of Netanyahu!!
Furthermore, he had more criticism for Mamdani than when Musk did the Nazi salute!!!!
So no I don't believe he is " calling balls or strikes". He was more gracious to a damn Nazi!!

Also, his whining about Mamdani has not come to " the oldest organizations" was cringe - Joe pressed him on Mamdani going to Synagogues and talking to or employing Jews in his campaign.
Jonathan seems mad that Mamdani has not bent a knee to him. It tracks with what he's doing. He's not asking for permission from any old organization. If he hasn't noticed, he hasn't asked for permission from the Old Democratic Guard either.
Get over it.
