    How about the terror attack in Israel that killed a baby and injured several others? Will you condemn it, or do you support it?

    Mr. President:

    Your track record in foreign policy is clear about your support of anti-Israel terror. If you even hope to see us believe otherwise, show us by action, not the empty words you have been dumping on us for the last several years.
