U.S. Would Never Sit Still For Such Rocket Attacks
ZOA Opposes Bush Administration Pressuring Israel to End Prematurely Actions Against Gaza Terror Groups
The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) has written to President George W. Bush and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, opposing the Bush Administration for pressuring Israel to desist from defending its territory and the lives of its citizens by launching a long-overdue military offensive, Operation Hot Winter, against terrorist installations in Gaza. Israel sent it forces into Gaza on Saturday but prematurely pulled them out yesterday, leading Center for Security Policy (Washington) Middle East analyst and Jerusalem Post columnist Caroline Glick to write that, “It is obvious that in suspending Operation ‘Hot Winter’ in Gaza, the Olmert-Livni-Barak government essentially crumpled in the face of pressure from US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and President George W. Bush. Sunday night the White House issued a press release demanding that Israel end its operations in Gaza and return to the negotiating table with Palestinian Authority Chairman and Fatah chief Mahmoud Abbas” (Caroline Glick, ‘Our World: Sound and fury signifying incompetence,’ Jerusalem Post, March 3, 2008).
The letter continues, “We cannot understand – and would wish to hear explained – why this Administration, often referred to as ‘the best friend Israel has ever had,’ is pressuring the elected Israeli government from taking legitimate military action aimed at protecting Israeli civilians from a recognized terror regime that has been killing and wounding Israelis.
Dear ZOA,
The often referred to best friend of Israel was a lie!
All the actions towards Israel by President Bush thus far prove it. All your communiqus grounded by hard undeniable substantiate it.

‘Take care of Olmert,’ Bush urges
How much more proof then that??
