In this American Thinker article, Elise Cooper reviews Batya Ungar-Sargon’s book *The Jews and the Left*, exploring why many American Jews continue supporting leftist Democrats despite rising antisemitism on the left.
- Ungar-Sargon addresses the frequent question from conservatives and Christians about Jewish voting patterns favoring Democrats who increasingly tolerate or enable Jew-hatred.
- The book traces Jewish-American political history from George Washington’s praise to FDR and the Civil Rights era, showing how leftist politics became intertwined with Jewish identity.
- Recent primaries, including victories by candidates like Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander with anti-Israel and antisemitic undertones, underscore the book’s relevance amid post-October 7 realities.
- Leftist identity politics and “virtue signaling” distract from economic failures, allowing extremists to push anti-AIPAC and anti-Jewish narratives as entry points.
- Ungar-Sargon argues antisemitism and anti-Americanism go hand in hand, as attacks on Jewish success mirror leftist disdain for traditional American values and capitalism.
- The review calls for Jews to recognize the threat from elite-driven antisemitism on the left and reaffirm commitment to American ideals of liberty and opportunity.
