"Baby's Got... Blue Eyes"

Paul Ryan meets w/Binyamin Netanyahu in Israel on Monday.


Here's young Paul, who sat on his hotel balcony in Jerusalem for an interview with David Horowitz* of the Times of Israel, on Monday:
“I would not as an Israeli be worried about the future of our relationship. I think it’s going to strengthen.” The alliance with Congress is extremely warm and firm, he elaborates, and ordinary Americans understand “that our ties with Israel are deep and strong, and that they’re mutual… We need Israel for our own national security. We need Israel to keep ourselves safe as well.”
...
Ryan’s first order of business is to make clear that he very deliberately chose to visit Israel now so as “to reinforce our alliance” and to underline his conviction that the US-Israel partnership should and will grow stronger in the future.

The 46-year-old father of three from Wisconsin, who was last in Israel late in Ariel Sharon’s prime ministership in 2005, emphatically endorses Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s view that Palestinian terrorism directed against Israel is ultimately no different from the Islamic terror afflicting Europe and threatening the United States, and that the civilized world must unite to fight it.

“They’re coming at Israel but they’re ultimately coming for us,” he says. “So we are partners in this war on terror, radical Islamic terrorism. Israel is an indispensable ally in that. Israel is on the front line in so many ways with respect to it.”

Except, I don't think the American majority is willing to send their sons to die so the settlers of Israel, a religious state, can expand their borders to consume more Palestinian land. America is a Judeo-Christian country, and we believe the new covenant made the first more inclusive. My God, Your God. My Land, Your Land....

Perhaps Paul Ryan can lead a round in between his powerful visits?
