在大选来临之际,针对党内围绕以色列问题的深刻分歧,密歇根州民主党总检察长达娜·内塞尔在一场犹太民主党人的私人集会上呼吁,将“全人类其他成员”的需求置于他们自身的“安全保障”之上。
身为密歇根州最高执法官且本身是犹太人的内塞尔,于8月30日在伯明翰由密歇根州民主党犹太核心小组主办的活动中发表了上述言论,当时媒体被禁止入场。据《底特律新闻》获得的一段录像显示,内塞尔援引了以斯帖王后的故事,辩称犹太民主党人有“道德义务将世界的需求置于我们自身的利益之上”,并敦促与会者“为了拯救全人类的机会,牺牲我们本民族的舒适、安全与保障,甚至是我们自身的未来”。
这番言论凸显了关键摇摆州密歇根州民主党内部的紧张局势已达临界点。在那里,许多犹太选民表示,在进步派、极左翼候选人日益高涨的反以色列言论中,他们被迫在信仰与党派立场之间做出选择。
这场私人集会有民主党联邦参议院候选人阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德出席——他是以色列以及美国对这个犹太国家军事援助的直言不讳的批评者——埃尔赛义德借此机会公开向犹太核心小组为其过去有争议的言论道歉。值得注意的是,内塞尔曾公开表示,在这场势均力敌的参议院竞选中,她不会投票给共和党人迈克·罗杰斯,但迄今为止,由于对埃尔赛义德在以色列问题上的立场存在担忧,她尚未对其表示支持。

在演讲中,内塞尔明确将以色列的生存与全球危机进行了权衡,其中包括质疑如果气候变化得不到解决,保护犹太国家的意义何在。
“如果我们祖先的历史家园所在的星球不再适宜居住,那么捍卫它并要求候选人承认其生存权又有什么意义呢?”据《底特律新闻》获得的录像显示,内塞尔如是问道。她随后将支持前总统唐纳德·特朗普形容为“背弃了我们作为犹太人的责任”,辩称犹太传统要求“对他人采取富有同情心的行动”,而非她所谓的“盲目顺从世界上最大、最危险的傻瓜”。

尽管内塞尔承认在场人士的挫败感——她指出,将犹太复国主义等同于种族主义的论调往往“出自那些对犹太-以色列历史的全部理解,恰好契合卡塔尔或伊朗制作的47秒TikTok视频的人”——但她同时认为,共和党及其对特朗普的忠诚构成了巨大威胁,并抨击共和党人将注意力放在“女排校队参赛的跨性别女孩”这类文化议题上,而非财富不平等和人工智能等问题。
福克斯新闻数字频道联系了内塞尔的办公室,询问其言论的预期效果,但在截稿前未收到回复。

“据报道,密歇根州总检察长达娜·内塞尔告诉密歇根州犹太民主党人,要效仿以斯帖王后,将‘世界’的生存置于自身利益之上,”特拉维夫研究所的作家兼高级研究员亨·马齐格说道。该研究所自称是“新兴媒体创新实验室”,旨在打击反犹主义并“改变”人们对犹太人和以色列的看法。
“我是一名同性恋者,也是终身自由主义者,”马齐格继续说道。“我理解为什么许多美国犹太人如此在意民主党。但以斯帖冒着自身的危险拯救了犹太民族,而非牺牲犹太民族去拯救他人。用这种方式引用她的故事既不准确,也毫无益处。”
与此同时,乔治梅森大学宪法学教授戴维·伯恩斯坦对这一被报道的言论提出了更为尖锐的批评。

“你可能觉得我上周在推特上谈论美国犹太人群体中有一部分人有自杀倾向时是在夸大其词。真正的新闻不在于内塞尔说了这番话,而在于她认为这至少能打动一大群犹太民主党听众,”伯恩斯坦说道,他补充道,内塞尔的言论让他想起了“犹太斯大林主义者,他们追随斯大林,经历了苏德互不侵犯条约,又熬过了1940年代末的反犹清洗,因为他们相信接受这些东西是犹太人为建立更美好世界需要付出的代价”。

福克斯新闻数字频道上周报道称,在《大西洋月刊》“大卫·弗鲁姆秀”的一次采访中,内塞尔指责民主党不重视犹太选民,让他们感觉自己比其他少数群体成员更不受欢迎。她还指出,自2023年10月7日以色列遭袭击以来,犹太民主党人感到被自己的党派排斥,并指责领导层选择性挑选与支持者相关的议题。
内塞尔补充道,如果面临选择,她会选择犹太血统而非党派隶属关系。她还批评了埃尔赛义德过去有关以色列的部分言论,以及他在8月30日向密歇根州犹太民主党人道歉之前,拒绝收回某些评论的行为。

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel warns Democrats they risk driving Jewish voters from party
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel told The Atlantic’s “David Frum Show” podcast that Democrats risk driving Jewish voters from the party if their concerns about antisemitism are dismissed.

Addressing deep intra-party divides over Israel ahead of the general election, Michigan’s Democratic Attorney General Dana Nessel urged a private gathering of Jewish Democrats to place the needs of “the rest of humanity” above their own “safety and security.”
Nessel, Michigan’s top law enforcement officer who is also Jewish, made the remarks during an Aug. 30 event in Birmingham hosted by the Michigan Democratic Party’s Jewish Caucus, where members of the press were barred. According to a video recording reviewed by The Detroit News, Nessel invoked the story of Queen Esther to argue that Jewish Democrats have a “moral imperative to place the needs of the world above even our own self-interest,” urging attendees to “sacrifice the comfort, safety and security and even the very future of our own people in exchange for the opportunity to save the rest of humanity.”
The comments highlight a boiling point for Democrats in crucial battleground Michigan, where many Jewish voters report feeling forced to choose between their faith and their party amid rising anti-Israel rhetoric from progressive, far-left candidates.
The private gathering was attended by Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed — a vocal critic of Israel and U.S. military aid to the Jewish state — who used the event to publicly apologize to the Jewish Caucus for past controversial comments. Notably, Nessel has publicly stated she will not vote for Republican Mike Rogers in the tight Senate race, but has thus far withheld her endorsement from El-Sayed over concerns regarding his stance on Israel.

During the speech, Nessel explicitly weighed the survival of Israel against global crises, including questioning the value of protecting the Jewish state if climate change goes unaddressed.
“What good is defending the historic homeland of our ancestors and demanding that candidates acknowledge its right to exist if the planet upon which it rests is no longer inhabitable?” Nessel asked, according to the recording reviewed by The Detroit News. She went on to characterize supporting former President Donald Trump as an “abdication of our responsibilities as Jews,” arguing that Jewish tradition demands “compassionate action toward others” over what she called “blind obedience to the world’s biggest and most dangerous fool.”

While Nessel acknowledged the frustration in the room—noting that arguments equating Zionism to racism are often made “by people whose entire understanding of Jewish-Israeli history fits neatly into a 47-second TikTok produced by Qatar or Iran” — she also argued that the GOP and its loyalty to Trump poses a great threat and blasted Republicans for focusing on cultural issues like “transgender girls playing JV volleyball” instead of issues like wealth inequality and artificial intelligence.
Fox News Digital reached out to Nessel’s office to ask for more details about the intended effect of her remarks, but did not receive a response in time for publication.

“Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel reportedly told Michigan Jewish Democrats to channel Queen Esther and prioritize the survival of ‘the world’ over their own self-interest,” said Hen Mazzig, author and senior fellow at the Tel Aviv Institute, which describes itself as “an emerging media innovation lab” aimed at countering antisemitism and “changing” how people think about Jews and Israel.
“I am a gay man and lifelong liberal,” Mazzig continued. “I understand why many American Jews care so deeply about the Democratic Party. But Esther risked her own safety for the Jewish people’s survival, she didn’t risk them to save others. Using her story this way is not accurate or helpful.”
Meanwhile, George Mason University constitutional law professor, David Bernstein, offered a more pointed criticism of the reported remarks.

“You may have thought I was exaggerating when I tweeted last week about how a segment of the American Jewish community is suicidal. The real news here is not that Nessel said this, but that she thinks it’s a viable pitch to at least a large segment of an audience of Jewish Democrats,” Bernstein said, adding that Nessel’s comments reminded him of “Jewish Stalinists who stayed with Stalin through the pact with Hitler, and then through the antisemitic purges of the late 1940s, because they believed that absorbing this stuff was the price Jews needed to pay for a better world.”

Nessel, who skipped the recent Michigan Democratic Party convention due to safety concerns, has become a prominent voice amid Michigan’s crucial Senate race.
Fox News Digital reported last week that during an appearance on The Atlantic’s “David Frum Show,” Nessel accused the Democratic Party of not valuing its Jewish constituents and making them feel less welcome than members of other minority groups. She also argued that Jewish Democrats have felt ostracized by their own party since the attacks in Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, and accused leadership of cherry-picking issues that are relevant to supporters.

Nessel added that if faced with the choice, she would choose her Jewish heritage over her party affiliation. She also criticized some of El-Sayed’s past rhetoric about Israel and his refusal to retract certain comments prior to his apology to Jewish Dems in Michigan at the Aug. 30 private confab.
