Reader comment on: 'Realism' in Syria

Submitted by Barry Popik, Feb 15, 2008 03:51

Both Obama and Clinton must clarify their positions on Israel at Thursday's CNN debate here in my new home town of Austin, Texas.

Does Obama support Israel? Does Clinton support Israel?

If they do support Israel, why are their advisers in Syria?

The NY Sun pointed this out a few days ago: "Mr. Obama's Web site allows donors to choose an address in one of 227 possible countries or territories, including Iran, Iraq, Zimbabwe, and Yemen." Iran supports Obama?

Debbie Schlussel has pointed out that Farrakhan supporters are working in Obama's campaign. Obama's most senior adviser's are strongly anti-Semitic. Could Mr. Obama explain why, if he supports Israel, he's advised by people who are all anti-Israel?

Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Obama must be asked about Israel. CNN cannot wimp out with ridiculous "diamonds or pearls" questions in this Thursday's debate.

Could the New York Sun find out what questions CNN intends to ask?

The fate of the Middle East might depend on asking candidates Clinton and Obama the right questions, right now.
