LOL!...
Israel, as you know, can end this in no time. But they don't want to take all the heat. Better to use Americans as human shields. These pro-Israel rallies pitched to conservatives are a hoot. Here in South Florida, a talk show host or the papers will rant about Ashcroft being a fascist, Bush and Cheney waging the war to make money in oil, the US military being killers of civilians, Gitmo a violation of humans right and THEN in the next breath, they ask people to send money or take to the streets in support of Israel.

Do you know if Israeli law incorporates a bill of rights similar to the U.S. constitution's bill of rights?

Took a look at your articles, while a certain scepticism is appropriate it is apparent that Grover has tried to be the conservative 'St. Paul', to the Moslems. Primarily he has tried to convince them as Americans that conservatism is in their interests, much as others reach out to Blacks and Hispanics. Unfortunately he fell under the influence of the personal charm so often characteristic of Arab people, and started to identify their interests with his own. This resulted in his being careless with the background of some of the folks he was associating with, eventually vouching for them to a greater extent than he should have.
He has reacted defensively to the attacks on some of his associates, and now is identifying more and more with them. If he does not straighten out his thinking on this matter he will end up being converted by them to their cause, rather than converting them to his cause. This would be a sad result for an outstanding conservative activist.
The articles demonstrate that the answer to the question asked here is yes, he has been taken to task by some on the right. The conservative movement not being a church, he can't be excommunicated, but he will eventually be a pariah, should he not reject all terrorist associates.
It is obvious that he is not likely to be impeached from his seat on the NRA board, unless he gets a lot worse. They probably will just ignore him until his term is up.

Israel doesn't have a constitution.

Larry, I forgot that you were an inhabitant of Palm Beach County, so you know of what you speak.
I still find it odd how the Condo Communists have skipped over Martin to settle in St. Lucie.

I'll take my stand with Grover, although I disagree with him on immigration.

It's not immigration. He's getting radical islamists into the white house.

Grew up in Connecticut and went into the city all the time. For some reason, the socialism of the northeast doesn't have the edge to it we have in south Florida. I swear there are prominent people here who have shrines to Trotsky in their homes.
