George Gilder - Do You Pass the Israel Test?

Business mogul George Gilder asserts that widespread antagonism toward Jews and Israel springs from envy of superior accomplishment. Critics, he says, failed the “Israel Test” because they seek to tear down the Jews' success rather than emulate it. Hence, America’s ability and desire to defend Israel will define America's future survival as a nation: If Israel is weakened, Europe and the West will be brought down as well, and America as the epitome of productive and creative capitalism spurred by Jews, will be in jeopardy.
