New York – Former president Bill Clinton suggested Thursday that Texas Gov. Rick Perry was ideologically in line with “militant subgroups in Israel” and was too willing to let the Jewish state do whatever it wants.

Asked about Perry’s recent strongly pro-Israel comments, Clinton said the 2012 Republican hopeful’s stance was “good politics.”
“Rick Perry – that’s my culture, you know? I’m from next door,” the Arkansas native said on MSNBC’s Morning Joe. “There’s an enormous reservoir of support for Israel in the Christian evangelical community, and a lot of them believe – as some of the more militant subgroups do – that God meant for all Judea and Samaria [the West Bank] to be in the hands of Israel…I’m sure there are hundreds of thousands of people that have never missed church on Sunday in Texas who believe it.”
Clinton also said that Perry and Republicans in Congress are willing to capitulate to Israel on too much.
Yes Mr Clinton Yehudah and Shomron are a full part of the Jewish Home land
It’s a good thing the article ended and his quotes stopped. I was hearing too many contradictions. He may just wag his tongue a bit much, and some of his liberal terror loving colleagues will reject him.
Mr Clinton you are not a true American. I bet had you been in the UN when this terrorist spoke against the USA, you wouldve applauded him. To me being as anti Israel as you are, you are anti American just as well. What a shame to have had you as our president.
Finally, Finally his true colors are coming out. I’ve been waiting for this anti-semite in heart to come out of his closet.
He also said much more things in that interview, I hope VIN posts it shortly.
The Clintons are the real source of all the problems in the Israel. They created this mess, it’s Oslo that got this whole state mishagas started.
Clinton’s right! Rick Perry’s stance on Israel is more militant than mine & I’m a gentile supporter of Israel AND Torah! (lol)
But Perry got up there & made a huge deal about being a “Christian supporter” of Israel & how as a “Christian” he is “directed by G-d” to support her & etc!
And um, I was a bit shocked that the Jews who invited him to that press conference not only allowed him to get up on stage spewing this kind of rhetoric… but actually *televised* the debacle & were *proud* to have him standing up there saying all of that?!
And especially on the SAME DAY as foreign nationals are in town & there is all this tension that our President is having to deal with
the UN?! Total disrespect!
Even George W Bush had enough sense to *NOT* bring up his Christianity when mentioning America’s support of Israel! Even HE had enough sense to not treat his support of Israel like a modern-day “Crusade”, thereby endangering American’s lives overseas, our military, AND peace-talks even further!
As Governor of Texas, I suppose Perry’s got the freedom to be as ignorant & globally stupid as he wants to be, provided his constituents still want to keep voting for him!
But President?!?!
Go have a meal with carter he is also an anti smite. If you want you can invite obama and acmadinijad so you will have 2 arabs too.
Clinton also said in that interview that its Israel’s fault that peace process fell apart.
Shame on him!
Original the south was consider White, Anglo Saxon and Protestant, anti black and anti Jew. It was delivered in their mother’s milk. carter & Clinton were raised in that culture
