恐怕只有以色列一個國家黯然神傷吧? 送交者: lifi 2008月11月05日07:48:42 於 [彩虹之約] 發送悄悄話 It is not the end of world yet. Obama just picked a true Israeli to be his Chief of staff. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rahm_Emanuel ---- According to Fox News, in accordance with his deep Jewish roots and volunteering in Israel when it was under attack from Saddam Hussein's missiles in the first Gulf War, he has indicated consistent support for Israel. In a November 2008 article it claims that while expressing empathy for Palestinians, Emanuel has explicitly condemned their leaders. [19] In June 2007, Emanuel condemned an outbreak of Palestinian violence in the Gaza Strip and criticized Arab countries for not applying the same kind of pressure on the Palestinians as they have on Israel. "Fatah and Hamas are tearing the Palestinian area of the Gaza strip apart in what they call a political rivalry, and the Palestinian people are paying a price for Palestinian violence," he said at the time. "Governments from around the world and the Arab world have said nothing. ... I just want you to think for a second, if this were the result of Israeli-Palestinian hostilities, would the international silence and the silence of the Arab world be this deafening?" At a 2003 pro-Israel rally in Chicago, Emanuel told the marchers Israel was ready for peace but would not get there until Palestinians "turn away from the path of terror," according to the Chicago Tribune.
