Who are the current political leader with jewish background?

[ScottGem]

Again I have to ask why would this matter to you?

[ebaines]

I'll give you one obvious name - Ehud Olmert is Prime Minister of Israel.

[BABRAM]

who are the current political leader with jewish background?

Are you asking for a particular office, world-wide data, or for a specific country? Also is this some sort of homework assignment? If so I'd like to see the question in it's original form and know from where it originated. BTW did you encounter the myths of the anti-Jewish conspiracy websites? As a born Jew, nothing would give me more satisfaction than to see your experience at the "askmehelpdesk" be an educational one. ;)


PS. The three remaining candidates running for US President, none are Jewish.

Again I have to ask why would this matter to you?

Isn't the religious background of the current crop of US political candidates of great discussion here? The answer is a big yes, so why does this bother you?

1.3% of America's population is Jewish, yet 13% of the U.S. Senate is Jewish. Again there is nothing wrong with being Jewish but if they are Zionist or Zionist leaning that is a problem. That means they place Israel's needs ahead of that of the United States. That makes them traitors. I'm afraid we have some traders below. They're constantly voting pro-Israel and therefore sending our tax money to Israel - billions a year (over 10 billion), and they have no problem sending our army to implement policies that benefit Israel but hurt the U.S. Senator Lieberman is definitely an outspoken Jewish Zionist. He is not alone. Zionists are not just Jews. There are many non-Jewish Zionists who have been bought by the Jewish Zionist lobby and/or are lobbied by the Zionist Christian Right (see the section in this website titled "Lobbying" for more on Christian Zionists). Sadly, most of Congress is intimidated by these American Zionists. Then there is Senator Hilary Clinton who when she was in the White House said Palestinians ought to have a state. Since she decided to run for the Senate from New York, the bastion of Zionist Jews, she has joined the Zionists and voted for everything Israel wants while condemning the Palestinians. She wanted the job and wants to keep it.
