Is this the same Pat Buchanan that defended Hitler?
Quote:
In his new book, Suicide Of A Superpower, Pat Buchanan takes a look at the Jewish population of the United States and concludes that Americans Jews are disappearing because they decided, as a group, to have lots and lots of abortions.
Abortion has little to do with the fate of any minority population in this country. the real problem is the exclusivity of the Jewish culture. Do not "proper" Jews exclude anyone that marries outside the tribe? By doing so they have sealed their own fate.
Buchannan, as expected, does not know what he is talking about. I suggest ignoring him until he just goes away.

All but the ultra-Orthodox (who you would be hardpressed to call "proper" Jews - they cherry pick as much as conservative Christians) recognize interfaith marriages. They might not be willing to perform the marriages themselves (reform and some conservative temples will do interfaith marriages). I am the child of a Jewish mother and non-Jewish father and I am recognized by every denomination of Judaism as a Jew.
So, good try but not quite.
As usual, I will just ignore everything that comes out of Pat Buchanon's mouth since apparently facts, research, and citations are not part of his vocabulary.

The most exclusive Jews (the Hasidic and other ultra-Orthodox Jews) actually have some of the highest fertility rates in the Western world. Large families are actually very common among Hasidic Jews. It's the nominally religious and agnostic/atheist Jews (as in sharing Jewish ethnicity and culture, but not religion) that have some of the lowest birthrates in the West.
