Let's play connect the dots.
The Obama administration's special envoy for the Gulf and southwest Asia [which means Iran] is Dennis Ross.
Dennis Ross, until this appointment, served as Chairman of the Jewish People Policy Planning Institute, which boasts that it "makes an annual presentation to the Israeli Cabinet as a whole on main developments in the Jewish world, offering its assessments and policy recommendations."
Here's a quotation from the latest JPPPI briefing, which refers to
Apparently, demonization and other such political-theological references are only a problem in government when issued by social conservatives, rather than former pro-Israel lobbyists.

Comments
But Steve, I think you're missing how the vast bulk of social conservatives (and I mean vast, if not all) are indeed pro-Israel.
Social-cons and "neo-cons" are but two sides of the same fear-mongering demonization coin.
Many of them could give a damn about "the Jews."
Beautiful straw man. I know of no one who says that demonization is the exclusive province of social conservatives. But it's interesting that you feel a need to latch onto to this and defend them by creating a straw man.
I'm not defending the use of such language by social conservatives, which you know quite well.
I am attacking the hypocrisy of those in the current administration who promise change and then fill the ranks of our State Department with theologically oriented neo-cons.
Give me a break.
Obama has placed in the highest levels of government (as did Bush) many dually passported Israelies. My question has always been, whose side on they really on?
Another shipment of arms just landed in Israel (including white phosperous) compliments of the USA.
The zionists and the right wing of both parties will never question their loyalty to our Constitution.
Now they want the traitor Ron Pollack an Israelie spy out of US prisions and delivered to Israel. Why is this so important to them? Perhaps because he has more information he was unable to deliver because he was captured, and the zionists want all he has.
I am conservative Progressive. I want my tax dollars spent efficiently cost effectively! I do not want my country to be about "empire", or creating and formenting war all over the world.
I want the Federal Reserve audited and closed down.
The left - right paradigm must be debated. Fighting over these words is dividing and conquering the best and brightest brains among our citizens.
