House Speaker, Republican Leader Praise Netanyahu
AIPAC March 25, 2010
After meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) praised the Israeli leader and reaffirmed the U.S.-Israel alliance. “We in Congress stand by Israel; in Congress we speak with one voice on the subject of Israel,” Pelosi said. Added Boehner: “We have no stronger ally anywhere in the world than Israel.” Pelosi and Boehner both pointed to the threat from Iran as a top concern and an area in which the United States will cooperate with Israel.

Well, who will ever doubt that. But what does all this in fact mean?
Thank you Wordzeezer for this post.
“We in Congress stand by Israel; in Congress we speak with one voice on the subject of Israel,” Pelosi said. Added Boehner: “We have no stronger ally anywhere in the world than Israel.”
It means that the U.S. Congress supports the expansion of the illegal Israeli settlements in Occupied Territories of Palestine by violating and challenging all norms of international law and the Geneva Conventions. But isn’t such support itself an offense as aiding and abetting under international law?
The reign of terror and the killings of the captive Palestinian population by the Israeli State and its armed forces is permissible because the perpetrator is Israel; therefore, no need to stop Israel from such actions and such policies! Neither does the Israeli economic and political strangulation of the population of Gaza in what is commonly acknowledged as the largest prison on Earth has any meaning for the U.S. lawmakers.
And yet some people look at the U.S. legislators as the defenders of democracy and international law. Wow!

Thanks sudhan, we can only hope that the sheeple will wake up and see what is transpiring here.
