Hagar on the Loose

Submitted by Gary, Feb 2, 2008 13:14

I am interested in how Obama has voted and what positions he has taken. Given that Iraq war policy is the major foreign policy issue we face, Obama may have been referring to Iraq policy. Obama's position on Iran (and Holocaust denial) is well documented. Obama spoke out (at the time) against pressuring Israel in its conduct of its war with Hezbola; spoken out for preserving the Jewish character of Israel -- and against negotiating any Palistinian "right" to physically return to land within Israel's borders; and spoken out against engaging Hamas in negotiations unless it would first recognize Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state.

Will the Sun take aim at every legislator who has ever agreed with Senators Lugar or Hagel on any foreign policy?issue?
