How Barack Obama learned to love Israel
Ali Abunimah, The Electronic Intifada, 4 March 2007
I first met Democratic presidential hopeful Senator Barack Obama
almost ten years ago when, as my representative in the Illinois state
senate, he came to speak at the University of Chicago. He impressed me
as progressive, intelligent and charismatic. I distinctly remember
thinking 'if only a man of this calibre could become president one
day.'
On Friday Obama gave a speech to the American Israel Public Affairs
Committee (AIPAC) in Chicago. It had been much anticipated in American
Jewish political circles which buzzed about his intensive efforts to
woo wealthy pro-Israel campaign donors who up to now have generally
leaned towards his main rival Senator Hillary Clinton.
Reviewing the speech, Ha'aretz Wa****ngton correspondent Shmuel Rosner
concluded that Obama "sounded as strong as Clinton, as sup****tive as
Bush, as friendly as Giuliani. At least rhetorically, Obama passed any
test anyone might have wanted him to pass. So, he is pro-Israel.
Period."
