The Forward reports: Tuesday night will go down in history as the first time a Jew won a presidential primary.
A jubilant Sanders, who describes himself as a democratic socialist, repeated his call for eradicating income inequality, breaking up the big banks and providing free college tuition.
“Together we have sent the message that will echo from Wall Street to Washington, from Maine to California, and that is that the government of our great country belongs to all of the people and not just a handful of wealthy campaign contributors,” Sanders said in his victory speech.
For the Clinton campaign it was a night that made clear that it is time to increase pressure on the Vermont socialist — including a harsher message to Jewish American voters.
“Hillary Clinton has been a very strong friend of Israel and that is something that should not be lost on the American Jewish community,” said Paul Hodes, a former New Hampshire congressman who came to rally for Clinton at her post-primary event. Hodes, who is Jewish and from New Hampshire, told the Forward: “Senator Sanders hasn’t showed himself to be the kind of friend of Israel that Secretary Clinton is.”

Who can suck up to Israel, is a game that only works when everyone plays and the shamelessness is mutual as the Goyim compete as Zionists.
In that respect, the fact that Sanders is Jewish and the fact that he isn’t fishing for large donations, both serve to his advantage. When questioned about his loyalty to Israel, he can reasonably wave off such challenges by pointing out that he’s running in an American presidential election.
The Sanders victory has global ramifications. The IS factions in Syria and Iraq might use this as “proof”, how tightly the US are linked to Jewish international finance capitalism. This constellation reminds one of European political situation, when Hitler stormed to power with ‘Religious’ Nationalsocialsm in Germany
Say what?! Firstly, it’s a bit early to be talking about the global ramifications of Sanders’ victory — there are still 48 primaries to go and then a general election. As for the so-called “Jewish international finance capitalism,” Hillary Clinton — not Bernie Sanders — is the candidate with close ties to Wall Street.
If ISIS is watching Sanders, I have little doubt their strongest desire is that he does not stand in the way of their favorite candidate: Donald Trump.
