POTUS?
Threw me for a while when I first saw it too.
President
Of
The
United
States
President of the United States.
Just another attempt to seem like a moderate in foreign affairs.
Really disgusting isn't it?
The only thing more disgusting is Bush's current policy towards Israel and Rice's frequent anti Israeli comments.
The Truth About Hillary: What She Knew, When She Knew It, and How Far She'll Go to Become President (Sentinel, June 2005), by Edward Klein
When Hillary made the obligatory trip to Israel to win Jewish votes back home, she went to the Palestinian-controlled city of Ramallah. There she appeared onstage with Yasser Arafat's wife, Suha, who made the outrageous charge that Israel was poisoning Palestinian women and children with toxic gas. At the end of Mrs. Arafat's speech, Hillary marched to the podium and gave Suha Arafat a big hug and kiss. The photo of the two women kissing, which was played around the world, sowed serious doubts about Hillary in the minds of many Jewish voters.
When Hillary realized that she had gotten herself in a jam with Jewish voters, she suddenly turned up a long-lost Jewish step grandfather -- an announcement that was dismissed by many cynical New York voters as an example of her pandering.
He was definitely against it in the beginning. He's softened up recently.

She does sound right leaning of Condi lately.
No, it simply means she is running for President and following the script to get elected, running as a moderate Democrat who is not soft on terror.
Methinks Widow Arafat has plenty of shoe-money back at her home away from home in La Paree!
The "palestinians" have always been delusional. Their "state" does not exist and has never existed due to their own choices. They lost the opportunity when they lost three major wars. It is all Israeli territoty now. They are squatting on a foreign country. The territory is "disputed" only in their delusional mind. No, it does not matter one whit if Denmark agrees with them, unless Denmark is willing to join the mass murderers in a war against Israel and others.
No one can take something they never owned. The territory they claim is more accurately referred to as expansion of the original Israel as the result of wars.
A "future state" is meaningless. Unless they are prepared to fight for it and win.
And I notice that the article studiously avoids being too specific about where their jobs, schools and farmlands are... Or more to the point, why do they need to cross Israel to get to them? Israel prevented them from building a healthy and normal economy and societal structure right where they live?
Are they willing and able to execute every international criminal that they export? Didn't think so.
Curses!! You foiled her wordsmithing plan!! (grin!)
Right you are!!
Hillary Clinton on Foreign Policy
Urged President to veto UN condemnation of Israel
LAZIO: When the US failed to use its veto, in the UN Security Council [which condemned Israel’s response to Palestinian protests] - that was one of the great mistakes of the last few years, and I spoke out immediately. I’m sure that Mrs. Clinton had a chance to speak with the president about this, to urge him not to use that veto. I would love to know what the context of the discussion was.
Q: Did you urge him to use it?
CLINTON: That was what I urged my husband to do. He made a different decision

Support Israel in finding a safe and secure peace
Hillary Clinton supports a move [of the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem]. She spoke more generally yesterday about what she called her longstanding respect for the country and its people. “The United States has been and will be always there for Israel,” she said. “And we will always support the Israeli government and Israeli people as they struggle to find a safe and secure peace.”
She stayed away from more controversial topics, such as whether there should be an independent Palestinian state. Mrs. Clinton angered many Jewish voters last year with when she voiced support for such a state. But the animosity felt by some in the crowd toward Mrs. Clinton was evident on nearly every block, with some holding signs recalling her embrace last year of Yasir Arafat’s wife, Suha.

Extend peace treaties to Palestinians, Syrians & Lebanese
The message of Oslo [was]: How we can fulfill Rabin’s legacy by bidding farewell to generations of war and ushering in a new century of real and lasting peace? The same must be true on all of Israel’s borders so that the peace that now covers some will be a peace that extends to all-Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese.

"On Israel, Hillary is horrible," New York Assemblyman Dov Hikind told United Press International.
"If this was only a remark made 26 years ago, then it wouldn't be a big issue, but with the other baggage that Mrs. Clinton carries it is a big issue, and the time factor should not matter.
"This is not an isolated case, and that makes everyone nervous, and it adds fuel to the fire," Hikind said.
Hikind said that Hillary Clinton has ignored areas of Brooklyn and New York City that do not support her and that she holds orchestrated events in friendly areas but that she refuses to meet with people who are upset with her.
The Democratic assemblyman from Brooklyn said many in his district have not forgotten Hillary's embrace of Suha Arafat, the wife of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, after she made "the worst kind of anti-Semitic remarks."
"There is a pattern of Hillary Clinton of trying to play every angle. If she wants to embrace Suha Arafat then she should stand by that statement but not give several versions of what occurred or imply she didn't," said Hikind.
"A lot of people don't trust Hillary, and that's the reason she's doing so poorly in polls."

While many news outlets did not write about the anti-Semitic allegation, the first lady brought the remark to the forefront of her campaign when she called a news conference Sunday on her Chappaqua front lawn and angrily and tearfully said, "I wanted to unequivocally state it never happened. I hate this type of politics of destruction."
"My policy for the last eight years has largely been just to absorb whatever insult, whatever charge, whatever accusation anybody says and not respond because they are so outrageous and so unfair," Hillary Clinton said. "Anyone who tries to get someone else to believe this will at least have to say, 'Well, she says it's not true.' You're darn right it's not true. It's absolutely false."
President Clinton jumped to his wife's defense and told the New York Daily News Sunday, "She might have called him a bastard, I wouldn't rule that out. She's never claimed that she was pure on profanity."
So true. It all depends on which side of the barrier she is on when she says what she says.
I'm sure her change of heart is a great comfort to the families of all the people that she and KKKlintoon MURDERED at Waco. Not.
Of course she picks her words, Notice she calls it a separation barrier instead of a wall. Its a frickin wall ,Cankles.
"the President has made clear – she continued – that his concept was of two coexisting states without a border." I'd assume that this means without a controlled border. At least Bush seems consistent.
that's the truth......was nothing but murder. her henchsquatch reno!
"Is Bush on record wrt the Israeli wall?If so is he for or ag'in' ?"
Sadly, even if she's lying, she still said more realistic things than Bush today.
