Kerry Brother in Israel

Cameron Kerry: Bush too soft on Saudis
By HERB KEINON

<snip> Kerry, who converted to Judaism 21 years ago before marrying his wife Kathy Weinman, termed his visit – his first to Israel – "an emotional experience." Kerry, whose paternal grandparents converted from Judaism to Catholicism in 19th-century Austria, visited Yad Vashem Thursday and found information on his great-aunt and uncle who were murdered in the Holocaust. His paternal grandmother's brother was killed in Terezin in 1943, and his grandmother's sister was killed in Treblinka in 1942. <snip>

<snip> Kerry is slated to tour the Golan on Friday, and return to the US on Saturday. He was brought to Israel by an affiliate of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, The American Israel Education Fund, which sponsors trips to Israel for key policy and opinion makers.

2. G_d save us from converts!
Converts to any religion are usually more dogmatic than those that were born into it!
