…by Sen. Chuck Hagel, a REPUBLICAN from Nebraska, who has called for Bush to “end the madness” and urge an immediate cease fire in the Middle East.
“How do we realistically believe that a continuation of the systematic destruction of an American friend — the country and people of Lebanon — is going to enhance America’s image and give us the trust and credibility to lead a lasting and sustained peace effort in the Middle East?…Our relationship with Israel is special and historic, but it need not and cannot be at the expense of our Arab and Muslim relationships. That is an irresponsible and dangerous false choice.”
Now, I don’t know anything about this guy, but I happen to agree with him on this, and that’s not something I can say very often about a Republican.
