Afsi Chairman: PRESIDENT'S SPEECH...A DISAPPOINTMENT
2007-01-25


The president's speech last night was more disappointing to those who support and defend his initiatives in Iraq, than to those who oppose him, said Herbert Zweibon, Chairman of Americans for A Safe Israel.

"What is the point of mentioning Jordan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia as part of the solution, when in fact, those nations play a duplicitous role as part of the problem. Who funds and abets terror? Who spreads jihad teaching and sermons throughout the Western democracies? Who helps build tunnels and delivers arms to terrorists? Who does not condemn Hezbollah mentioned by the President as terrorists?" Zweibon added.

"Furthermore, why throw them a sop in the form of a delusional pretense that a two state solution in the Arab/Israel conflict is possible? By doing so the President betrayed a loyal democratic ally in the frontline against the war on terror, and those of us who have come to expect real leadership, determination and integrity in the White House."

Israel and America deserve better.
