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,
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
