"Shoot the IDF solider game"

Most alarming to Jewish leaders was their talk about administration neoconservatives who happen to be Jewish — and who have “attachments that shape how they think about the Middle East,” according to Walt.
That theme caught the attention of the Catholic League for Civil Rights. Bill Donohue, the league’s president, said that Walt and Mearsheimer “are promoting the invidious notion that Jewish neoconservatives are not to be trusted as their real loyalties lie elsewhere.”
That, Donohue said, raises alarm bells within his own community.
“As American Catholics, we are all too familiar with the old canard about ‘dual loyalties,’” he said. “Indeed, this smear tactic has been hurled at us for over 200 years. Just as we deeply resent accusations that American Catholics cannot think and act independent of the Vatican, we find it abhorrent when it is said or implied that American Jews cannot think and act independent of Israel. “
