5. Too bad the Democratic Party Platform doesn't address Isreal

6. This is just like before the Iraq war, the Democrats are falling

all over themselves backing Israel and Bush. We are in even more trouble than I had previously thought. We don't even have an opposition party,only a few brave people such as Kucinich and Conyers.

8. Kucinick chickend out--He did not vote against the resolution

7. AIPAC

'nuff said

12. The proverbial elephant in the room nt

[High Plains]

9. And Ralph Nader said there was no difference between the parties!

[DanCa]

13. I wonder who John Kerry would have picked for the Supreme Court.

Btw the GOP contributed to the Nade Campagin.

10. I would not have voted.

I support Israel's right to defense but not to keep blowing the bejeezus out of Lebanon in general. Too morally ambiguous.

[eridani]

11. That's what I'd have done as well

In a very indirect way, a no vote OKs the Hezbollah attacks. On the other hand, you don't want to justify Israeli overkill either.

[AnOhioan]

14. Complete agreement

Israel's reaction is completely over the top. The only acceptable vote on this bill was to not vote.

DK has always held that ALL the parties in the region are accountable for the conflict. ALL the parties need to exercise restraint. The problem is NONE of them actually are.
