Funny enough it's American Jewry that is the most left out of most of the Jewish population.
Here in Toronto most Jews are hardcore conservatives. The ones that aren't obviously are the 3rd generation reformers who are so out of touch with their origins that bagels and smoked salmon is their strongest cultural ties to the tribe.
To me, Reform is like a fair-trade organic decaf soy latte - why bother? I spent some time considering Judaism and concluded that Hasidism was the only thing that was logical for me as a potential convert.
Most Israelis here get a long with Russian/Bucharian/Kavkazi Jews. You see a little of them mingling with the Canadian Jews but its few and far between.
A couple months ago I met an Israeli entrepreneur living in downtown trying to get his startup up and running. We spoke briefly but when him and I clicked he told me it was like a breath of fresh air to hear that I was conservative or at least not a blind staunch leftist.

I just want diversity with the media CEOs
Why?
Its irrelevant that they are Jewish... Jews come in all kinds. It's probably 50/50 throughout the world between and left and right leaning jews...
If the media ceo wasn't a jew, they'd just be someone else who was willing to toe the democrat/corporate line.

Add gluten free and alcohol free beer latte and you have the perfect analogy!
Hasidism is a fine diamond with many angles. If I may ask, which drew you in at the time?
I agree. I’m an American Jew but Israeli born. I honestly can’t relate much with the non-immigrant American Jews much.
My wife will have to be a Jewish American immigrant or come from an immigrant family.
