“How far do politicians conflate US and Israeli interests? Well Romney’s choice for veep, Paul Ryan, puts the issue ‘Israel’ under the category ‘Homeland Security’ on his Congressional website. Homeland Security also includes, Iraq, Afghanistan, Support Our Troops, and Defense Appropriations. Ryan’s website statement on Israel is typical of the Republican right, and Democratic left for that matter: the only ‘fully functioning democracy’ in the Middle East, shared values, and Hamas is a terrorist organization.”
