How to deal with Israeli Left and Post modernism

I have noticed more than one Israeli environmentalist moping over the potential harms to the environment while not even bothering to do a cost benefit analysis.

Environmentalism,feminism,homosexuality,abortionists,corrupt academia,pacifism,appeasement,pornography,prostitutionJewish self loathing and other "contributions" of the Left will corrode Israeli Zionist society and values.These very same diseases are hollowing out America as we speak, ironically many paleocon crackpots are blaming a "Jewish elite" for fostering the above on Americans.How long before a Ron Paul type character becomes prominent in Israel?I suppose the Israeli equivalent would blame the Zionist project for suicide bombings and Irans genocidal threats.Oh wait..you already have those in the Labor party!

America's geographic size,distance from hostile states,large population,military prominence and economy enables leftist ideas to enter the mainstream.Israel doesnt have those luxuries,whats its excuse?
