Holy Lands at the top of their personal agenda. Hillary is predisposed to be against anything that stands in the way of what the supporters of Jewish settlements want. Syria and Iran are seen in these circles as Israel's greatest enemies. Hillary will side with Israel first and ask questions later. That is her track record.

The trouble is, the Israeli Settlers are making unreasonable demands that will someday get a million Americans killed. Unfortunately the leading Dem in the Senate, and Party hopeful for 2008, is all too willing to trade fairness and equity in the Middle East for short term personal gain.
