Hunter: 'Postage stamp' Israel should not give up 'one inch' of territory WASHINGTON — A contender for the Republican presidential nomination has ruled out an Israeli withdrawal as part of any peace accord with the Arabs.

Rep. Duncan Hunter, one of 10 Republicans vying for their party's 2008 presidential nomination, said Israel must not withdraw from "one inch" of territory as part of an Arab peace accord. Hunter, the former chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, termed Israel a "postage stamp of a country" that could not afford to cede territory.

On May 20, Hunter, a California Republican, voiced his position during a meeting with Christian Zionists in Alexandria, Va. He recalled his visit to the Golan Heights, the scene of intense armored battles with Syria during the 1973 Yom Kippur War.

Yes, Representative Hunter is the best candidate in this race for president in 2008, and would probably have been the best candidate in many other election years.

Hunter remains alone among Democratic and Republican presidential candidates who oppose Israeli territorial concessions.

Hunter has criticized the Bush administration's plan for a Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. He cited the spreading influence of Iran and Al Qaida in the Levant.


Hunter makes sense. You’d think everyone would be saying these things.

I've been poking around his stuff. Hmmph! He was born in Riverside. I didn't know that. That makes him a local for me. Guess we'll have to keep a closer eye on Representative Hunter in the future.

I really like this guy. I hope he starts showing some upward mobility in the polls.

“Hunter & Tancredo are both strong men who would be great for a strong and sovereign America - not so hard to figure out why the MSM don’t give those two much air time.”

You nailed it.

“IMO, because he’s not an OBL CFRer, not a SPP/NAUer and he has been very specific about how he will effectively secure the borders and how illegal immigration will be handled with attrition through enforcement.”

Yep.....everything the MSM hates!

Israel must not withdraw from “one inch” of territory

I say that every time they suicide Bomb..Israel takes 20 acres of Palestinian held land, every gun shot from a sniper, 10 more acres...plus 25 acres for every Jew injured, and 50 acres for every Jewish soldier wounded.
if any Jew is killed...1000 acres. move every house in the way. finish the wall. take more and more land even if they cross into Lebanon, or Jordan, or Egypt. push them into the sea of Galille. Jordan is where most of them are from. Let Jordan take them back. Take back Gaza and force those there into Egypt. ( Egypt let them smuggle Bombs into Gaza ...let it cost Egypt for their aiding Terrorism.
tell fatah to return order or else fall along with Hamas. and Hezbollah. ( cut off fuel, food, power, communications,
infrastructure) if they want to act like Savages...let them realy feel what its like to live as Savages.

“” Duncan Hunter is right on nearly every issue I’ve heard him opine on. Why is he getting nowhere? Is it just because the media has anointed Rudy McRomney? Hunter should be leading the republican race.””

Very well said!!! The stinking MSM decides who should be running for president rather than the people. Duncan Hunter is by far the best choice for America as well as for Israel.

Its insane for Israel to give up land for peace. Hunter is right!!

I agree, he’s a great conservative. Hunter suffers from an unfortunate self-perpetuating cycle. His low name identification prevents him from raising considerable money, and the lack of money in turn keeps his name identification low. To break out, you either have to have an incredibly slick media team, or more commonly have some characteristic that the MSM wishes to hype.

I'm afraid you're right, and it makes me sad. When are the glib, self-important know-it-alls who control the MSM going to lose their stranglehold over American public opinion? I had hoped with the advent of the Internet and alternative media, most notably talkers on the radio, American heads would have long come out of our hindquarters by now.

Good man. Tragically, he has a snowball's chance in hell of getting the support of secular Jews.

Why is it that the strongest, most unwavering supporters of the Jewish state are the ones most hated by this community? Do they think that if the Islamonazis get their wish and Israel is "wiped off the map," they will be spared because of their liberal views? Mayor Koch saw it; when are the others going to wake up? It never ceases to amaze me how self-destructive my own people can be.
