    Fantastic. Every word Senator Mendendez spoke is true. No one has express this better than the Senator.

    superb review of the facts

    Unfortunately, the obsessive desire by Arabs [including the millions of Moslems who have immigrated to Europe and spread venom in all of those countries] to exterminate Israel has been gaining momentum. Those who are "neutral" are more concerned about their fuel than the survival of Jews and Israel. Sen. Menendez' speech is like a tiny flashlight illuminating a desert. The festering hatred is not extinguished by reason or negotiation---as Hitler and his Nazi followers so well illustrated less than 70 years ago!

    Menendez on Israel's history

    Way to go. The world needs to see what you see.

    I respect them.

    He is correct 100% . The universe owes a lot to Jewish people. They are builders, creators not fighters. They were born to create peace, not to destroy. As a none Jew I stand behind them.

    Moral Distinction

    That was a an amazing speech; two lines really struck me. When describing Israel and its' neighbors the Senator said: "But we cannot erase the moral distinctions between tyranny and freedom and we must not edit history" and when describing Israel's role in the world: "it is..an island of refuge that can stand firm no matter how stormy the sea of history" Thank you Senator for showing true moral distinction.
