Latest contender for president comes from long line of rabbis
((Excerpt))

Speaking to the New Democrat Network ((New Branch of the DLC founded by Lieberman)) this year, Clark said that dismantling Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat´s Ramallah headquarters was "a legitimate military objective from their perspective.

"For the Israelis, this is a struggle really for the existence of Israel," Clark said in remarks quoted on a support group´s Web site.

Clark is also tough on neighboring Arab states, expecting more from them in nudging the Palestinians toward peace.

He has said he would like to see Jordan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia in a "contact group" similar to the alliance that Serb-friendly Russia joined to force the Serbs to back down in Kosovo. He blames Saudi Arabia for allowing extremist strains of Islam to spread.

The former NATO leader also opposes any active international role in policing the West Bank until the political situation is settled, a view that Israelis — nervous at relinquishing control to foreign troops on their borders — would appreciate.

WHAT?
One of the leaders of the Draft Clark campaign said Clark´s strength on foreign policy would neutralize an advantage President Bush now has with Jews, and would bring the debate back to domestic issues, where the Bush administration is weaker with Jews.

Sorry, this won't make me support Clark anymore. The Jews I know, even the rabidly pro-Israel ones, would never consider supporting Bush in the next election, whether the nominee is Clark or Kucinich. Those that this would actually have some effect on are already in support of Bush.

4. Ah, the battle for the "Most Pro-Likud" Democrat begins!

Come in, gentlemen, make yourselves comfortable and reassure the voting classes how many of the Evil Muslim Menace you pledge your life and limb to dispatch if you are chosen to receive the coveted AIPAC gold...

5. somewhere between
rabbits and Clarke, I lost the thread of this posting. Monsiuer DucktapeFatwa I oh some humbly nominate you as the Likudnik of the year. This honor should be given to you for all the wonderful undercover work you do for Mossad and Shin Bet. In my opinion your finest hour was when you got Barbie branded as a zionist threat.

11. And...
"skilled, silent, and stealthy" Israeli soldiers to botch extra-judicial assasinations for her and kill innocent Palestinian dolls with "collateral damage."
