J Street, the pro-Israel political powerhouse that raised nearly a million dollars in the 2008 election cycle, announced yesterday the appointment of Hadar Susskind as director of policy and strategy. A longtime Washingtonian, Susskind will be leaving his position as vice president and Washington director of the Jewish Council for Public Affairs to join J Street.

"My goal is to build as broad a base of support as possible for Israel at this politically pivotal moment when there is both great opportunity to make progress in resolving the conflict and a tremendous risk of squandering it," Susskind said in a press release.

In his new role, Susskind will take charge of J Street's government affairs team as well as its political and strategic campaigns, and will coordinate the group's lobbying, political action and grassroots operations. Born in Israel, Susskind is a veteran of the Israel Defense Forces.

Just because someone calls themselves “pro-Israel” doesn’t necessarily make it so.

In the end, J Street is a great “hope and change” alternative to real Israel lobbying. Hope for terrorists and change that reduces the support for the only real democracy in the Middle East.
