(Below is an email I got today from the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.)
Dear Friend of Israel,
Earlier today, during his second visit to Israel since attaining office, U.S. President Bush addressed Israel's parliament, the Knesset. While many significant speeches have been given in this chamber since Israel's founding 60 years ago, I truly believe that the President's will stand as one of the most memorable.
In his speech, President Bush described Israel as "the redemption of an ancient promise given to Abraham and Moses and David," reaffirmed that "the alliance between our governments is unbreakable, yet the source of our friendship runs deeper than any treaty," and recognized Israel as "free and modern society based on the love of liberty, a passion for justice, and a respect for human dignity." It was a stirring address, one that demonstrated that the President understands well the religious, moral, political, and strategic reasons why Israel and America must and will stand together.
