  • Il faut se rendre compte que les deux déclarations d’aujourd’hui, par Biden et Harris, sont beaucoup plus extrémistes que… l’administration de Bush en 2004 après les assassinats des chefs du Hamas. En 2004, l’administration Bush s’était inquiété des conséquences. Aujourd’hui Biden et Harris s’enthousiasment pour l’assassinat de Nasrallah, accompagné d’au moins 300 autres victimes selon Israël.

    Cette équipe arrive à être encore plus tarée que Georges W. “Gog et Magog” Bush…

    Bush Backs Israel on Self-Defense [24 mars 2004]

    Bush said the Middle East is “a troubled region and the attacks were troubling. There needs to be a focused, concerted effort by all parties to fight terror.” He expressed hope that Israel “keeps consequences in mind as to how to make sure we stay on the path to peace.”

    On Monday, State Department spokesman Richard A. Boucher said the United States was “deeply troubled” by Israel’s killing of Yassin, which “increases tension and doesn’t help our efforts to resume progress towards peace.”

    The Bush administration issued a guarded expression of concern about Israel’s killing of the new Gaza Strip leader of Hamas on Saturday, saying that it ’’strongly urges’’ Israel to exercise restraint in retaliating for Palestinian attacks at a particularly delicate moment.

    After several hours of conferring about what to do following the killing of Dr. Abdel Aziz Rantisi, the White House press secretary, Scott McClellan, issued a statement on Saturday evening that said the United States was ’’gravely concerned for regional peace and stability’’ following Israel’s action.
