Not his campaign booklet, but his actions: McCain co-sponsored a Senate bill voicing opposition to the establishment of a Palestinian state.

Would you rather his campaign booklet say "supports the eradication of the Palestinians"? I think most politicians will agree that the Palestinians need to learn to function as a state peacefully next to Israel… just as was originally envisioned. And what exactly does the McCain campaign booklet say?

According to Obama's campaign booklet, he wants a Palestinian state "side-by-side" with Israel. How is that supporting Israel without question?

Both candidates support Israel without question. What proof do you have the either Obama or McCain would turn their backs on her?

I didn't say "trust." I said believe. Don't believe me if you don't want to. Because Obama is the junior senator from my state, I've been observing him since he first came into the public spotlight. He is not a supporter of Israel.

You can't debunk the truth. Obama admits that he was raised as a Muslim. He's not ashamed of it. It is important to know how a candidate stands on the issues, not merely where he says he stands.

Why would the Federation of American Scientists post the Hamas Charter on its website?

The whole "Obama is a Muslim" thing was debunked a long time ago. Are we ever going to move on from this argument? As for appeasement of voters, don't you think that's the middle name of ANY politician?

Trish: Why should we "trust" you? Just because you live in the same state as Obama?

Obama is the junior senator from my state. He was raised as a Muslim and schooled in Indonesia. Believe me, he knows who and what Hamas and Hezbollah are. He's trying to appease those of us who do support Israel, but he's talking out of both sides of his mouth.
