SHOULD THE FOX BE ASKED TO GUARD THE CHICKEN COOP?
President Bush should be the Last Person to "broker peace" in Palestine
[Ms. Carolyn in Florida asks that the following letter be sent to President Bush.]

Dear President Bush,

I don't see how the United States can broker peace and security between the Palestinians and the Israelis as the U.S. government is the chief financier, supplier of arms, and diplomatic backer of Israel.

Israel has violated over 70 U.N. Security Council resolutions and was protected from 35 others by U.S. veto. Israel is in direct violation of international law, including the Fourth Geneva Convention and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and yet received aid in direct violation of U.S. foreign aid restrictions.

In conclusion, I think it would be in the best interest of the Palestinians (and Israel) if another country acted as a peace broker. That way at least there would be some justice.

Sincerely,
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
