You run into the phenomenon time and time again: US Jews who favor open borders and unlimited immigration to America while at the same time supporting the apartheid state of Israel–a country which seeks to preserve its own ethno-religious purity even as it denies Palestinians the right of return.

The Jewish holiday of Purim takes place this weekend.
