Yeah… I sure miss Bush’s two-state solution politics and support for disengagement, not to mention the pressure he put on us to pull out of even more territory…. Oh wait…SOME SMALL REMINDERS
(1) Bush's Road Map: Here's the salient detail from Wikipedia: The principles of the [Road Map] originally drafted by U.S. Foreign Service Officer Donald Bloome, were first outlined by U.S. President George W. Bush in a speech on June 24, 2002, in which he called for an independent Palestinian state living side by side with Israel in peace: "The Roadmap represents a starting point toward achieving the vision of two states, a secure State of Israel and a viable, peaceful, democratic Palestine. It is the framework for progress towards lasting peace and security in the Middle East..."
(2) "The United States sees the establishment of a Palestinian state and a two-state solution as absolutely essential for the future, not just of Palestinians and Israelis but also for the Middle East and indeed to American interests" - Condi Rice, speaking for her president, October 15, 2007
(3) Regarding Bush's pressure on Israel, from November 26, 2007 "As one senior [Israeli] officer directly involved in the negotiations with the Palestinians and the Americans said, "As bad as it might look from the outside, the truth is ten times worse. This is a nightmare. The Americans have never been so hostile."
(4) Rice calls Hamas a resistance movement
That's from two seconds of searching. If I thought moron YaakovKuperman was a reader of this blog, I'd go to more trouble to demolish his stupid statement. Troubles me deeply that Orthodox Jews are such unreflective parrots of demonstrably untrue Republican propaganda.
