Sometimes it is hard to keep up to date. In a small Arizona town recently I saw a political message in somebody's yard/fence. It was an Israeli flag, with the message "Support Israel." I have seen such political billboards before in the rural West, and usually just roll my eyes at them. Presumably they are put up by a Rapture-crazed, Evangelical Christian who is under the influence of some frothing-at-the-mouth radio preacher.
But this flag surprised me: it also included a Rainbow flag. In other words, this was a statement made by a mainstream Democrat. And I still think of Democrats as the party of George McGovern and anti-Vietnam War protestors. My goodness, am I out-of-date!

Yes some Democrats are sympathetic to the Palestinians. Some pundits are guessing that the 2024 Democratic Convention will be as chaotic as the 1968 convention in Chicago. But I wonder why the Democrats would even HAVE a convention, or primaries for that matter. They certainly won't have debates.
