Will the U.S. Stand By Its Commitment to Israel's Security?


(Fox News) Sean Hannity - From an interview Tuesday with Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.): Hannity: Israel's hit with thousands of rockets. Israel decides to put up a blockade so they can't send reinforcing weapons to the people that are firing rockets at hospitals and pizza parlors and neighborhoods and schools. Israel has a right to self-defense. Israel warns this vessel not to go in. They've allowed humanitarian aid in. Israel protects itself, and Israel gets worldwide condemnation. I'm trying to sort out the logic here. McCain: Well, I think that there is a significant pro-Palestinian sentiment in Europe, particularly amongst President Sarkozy and others and an anti-Israel stance by some of these countries. I don't know all motives, but some had to do with economic ties to some of these countries. In addition to what you just said, let me remind you that this Turkish humanitarian relief organization has ties to radical organizations. Hannity: Senator, more importantly, I'm concerned about the world's reaction. Here we have 200 countries condemning Israel.
