This was meant specifically for Netanyahu: 'Get with me or I'm with the Palestinians.'

"Current Leftist vogue is to state support for Israel. It's only when you dig down a little that you find out it's support for Israel, but not as a Jewish state meaning full right of return..."

Because being a Jewish-only state would make it "racist." In a Leftist world, they split people into two groups: "racist" or "not racist." That's why Obama was the perfect candidate for the Left. If you didn't vote for him, somehow, somewhere you were a racist. (Jeanne Garafolo basically said that on Olbermann a few months back.) By supporting Obama, the Leftists proved to themselves that they weren't racists, which is important to their self-worth. Today, this phenomena takes it's form in the nomination of Sotomayor as if to say, "See, we're not racists!" It explains their over-the-top volunteerism for all-things "African" as well, i.e., "Darfur."

"linking the Holocaust to the current plight of the Palestinians. I am sorry, but these events are not comparable."

The Left's approach to "history" is basically to ignore it and replace it with a policy of self-esteem. It explains the beyond insulting and deeply disturbing comparison of the systematic murder of six million Jews (the equivalent today would be 600 million Muslims) with the current, self-imposed destitution of the Palestinians.
