The harm done to Israel is damage done to the West. And delegitimizing Israel is a delegitimization of the West.

Disarming Iraq is legal under a series of U.N. resolutions. Iraq is in flagrant violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions.

There are the countries of the north of Europe taking decisions and the countries of the south of Europe that are living under intervention. This division exists.

The alliance should agree... to an effective NATO role against the new threats presented by international terrorism and weapons of mass destruction.

Without economic development, any potential for political openness and freedom will be questionable.

My conviction is that the best strategy to defend the West is to defend Israel.
