Dear Mr. President:
Secretary of State Rice, on her recent trip to Israel, demanded that
Israel reduce its security measures against PLO suicide bombers while
praising PLO chief Mahmoud Abbas for "cracking down on terror" even
while his organization continues to launch attacks against Israel. The
Zionist Organization of America's President Morton A. Klein has strongly
criticized your administration for this skewed approach. "We are deeply
perplexed by Rice's strong praise of Abbas' alleged actions against
terrorism," President Klein said. "What actions? He hasn't disarmed or
dismantled any terror groups. He hasn't stopped incitement against Jews
and Israel in his media, schools, or mosques. He hasn't changed the
names of the schools, streets, and sports teams presently named after
suicide bombers. He hasn't stopped smuggling in weapons from the Sinai
to Gaza and he hasn't closed the bomb factories." "(But) when it comes
to Israel, she demands adherence to the Roadmap, reduced or no
checkpoints, stop building homes anywhere in Judea and Samaria or
Eastern Jerusalem, condemns the security fence, demands contiguity and
states that Israel cannot keep any land past the 1949 armistice line
without Palestinian Arab approval. All these demands of Israel are
before Abbas has fulfilled a single sentence of the Roadmap. This type
of approach only encourages Abbas to do nothing and only harms the
security of America's only real ally in the Mideast, Israel. President
Bush, I would like to add that this morally inverted approach of yours,
which rewards Arab terror and castigates Israel's legitimate security
needs, bitterly disappoints many who voted for you and reduces domestic
support for your policies.
Sincerely,
==^======================================
