This is why we have the first amendment. Guess they’ll try to abort it now that speech doesn’t favor them. Susan Rice is owed an apology for what? Benghazi?
President Barack Obama is sending National Security Advisor Susan Rice and UN Ambassador Samantha Power–widely seen as among the most anti-Israel members of his administration–to address a prominent pro-Israel gathering next week. The move is described by the Associated Press as an effort to mend fences after the administration had withheld speakers from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) policy conference. In reality, it is a further slap in the face.
Rice caused an uproar earlier this week when she told interviewer Charlie Rose that the forthcoming speech by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to a special joint session of Congress was “destructive” to the U.S.-Israel relationship and to bipartisan support for Israel. Power is controversial because of her earlier view that the U.S. should send troops to impose peace between Israelis and Palestinians–a view she recanted as she campaigned for the United Nations position.
They are working as hard as they can to scrap the 2nd. After that the First is a goner.
