Kim Strassel on Dems Divided Over Israel: The Progressive Left Is Very Loud and Good at Imposing Litmus Test

RUSH EXCERPT:
STRASSEL: "Yes. I think the progressive left is very good at something. It might still be the minority in the party. They are very loud and very good at imposing litmus test. Mobilizing the grassroots. Mobilizing all of its activists groups and the money to say we have now set a line. If you do not tow that line you are going to ousted from the party. Either in a primary, you will be shamed or whatever it is. It’s really notable we think running for president suggesting he is going to be the moderate voice. He felt compelled to fly to Israel to give a speech critical of Netanyahu but one of the part problems he party is going to have is we know when the fringe starts to go some of the rest of thethe Democrat Party is not far behind. Right now as bill said — make it something we don’t want Israel would just do not like Netanyahu who don’t like their policies but you know have members of the French left out there specifically saying we do not think and a liberal democracy a Jewish state can exist. Okay, that’s calling for the end of Israel but that is where the Democrat Party may be headed."
