Honest, Fair are these words in the vocabulary of Middle Eastern Scholars that are Muslims, or people who find It is hard to be pro Israel and be liberal minded Jews, and seem to look away from the constant spewing of hatred and violence toward Israel and Jews by the Muslims. They have distanced themselves from their religious heirtage for assorted reasons. It is hard to be pro Israel without some feelings for being Jewish traditonally, otherwise the feeling is more humanitarian with no connection culturally+ religiously like keeping kosher or being shomer shabbat learning Torah.
