Washington, Sept.4 : Alaska Governor and Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin may never have been to Israel, but according to sources close to her, she is a staunch supporter of the Israeli cause, making her a favorite with the staunchly pro-Israel neo-conservative elements in the Republican Party.

According to the Washington Times, most Republicans and conservatives outside Alaska know little about Palin's foreign policy views, but Palin's counselor Tucker Eskew, leaves no one in doubt about where she stands.

"She would describe herself as a strong supporter of Israel's, with an understanding of Israel's fear of an Iran in possession of nuclear weapons," Eskew told The Washington Times.

Palin's brand of evangelical Protestantism is especially well disposed to the preservation of Israel for biblical reasons, said Merrill Matthews, an evangelical Christian and a Dallas-based health-policy specialist.

Palin was baptized as a teenager at the Wasilla Assembly of God Church. She frequently attends the Juneau Christian Center, which is also part of the Pentecostal Assemblies of God. Her home church is the Church of the Rock, an independent congregation.

Meanwhile, she is getting rave reviews from Jewish Republicans.

11. of course, look at nutjob katherine harris, she was a dominionist.

they kicked her to the curb as soon as they were done with her. I expect more of the same here. mcinsane will lose, he will go on being an awful senator, but caribou will flame out and probably will never be heard from again. she probably won't be able to get elected to the PTA after November.

9. I was waiting for someone to put that up Good Job

Yes she believed Israel should be attacked because they didn't believe in God
my Jewish friend just read this on Politico and was screaming my ear off on the phone she is ticked off

7. Then why didn't she denounce the Jews for Jebesus leader when he claimed that Jews deserved attacks

because they had not "Found" Jebesus?

10. their using religion for their own agenda

Palin is the Oil companies pick thats for sure

12. Trans-national corporations, primarily OIL, is what it's all about.

The Repukes, as differentiated from decent Republicans, are trying to guarantee a block of voters who will do what they are told NO MATTER WHAT, i.e. the blaspheming Fundies who are addicted not only to Oil, but to their own DOMINIONIST DEATH CULT. The investments of trans-national corporations in their own War Profiteers are at risk and their attempt to root DRILL & KILL in the American jobs base, thus insuring votes with people's mortgages, which they ALSO control the value of.

Ever see the movie Animatrix?
