Weinerman manufactures his own history.  A simple fact check disputes his contentions.   We know that the United States has protected Israel, but what has Israel done for America?  Micronesia and the Marshall Islands are the only entities that have stood with the U.S. at the United Nations.  He perpetuates the myth that Israel is a democracy,while neglecting its treatment of all Palestinians.    Israel is one of the most formidable military powers in the world, with nuclear weapons, but portrays itself as a victim.  The recent UN Security Council vote demonstrated that the entire world believes that 800,000 Israeli settlements are illegal, with the exception of Weinerman.   No wonder he is the PAST chairman of the Jewish Community Relations Council of Lane County.  It does not bode well for the Council to have someone so misinformed as its spokesman.
