Among U.S. politicians there is plenty of dissent on the Obama administration’s decision to publicly censure Israel for building “settlements” in Jerusalem.
Some of the politicians who were quick to speak out publicly against the U.S. position include: Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.), Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), Sen. Sam Brownback (R-Kan.), Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.), Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio), Rep. Shelley Berkley, (D-Nev.), Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fl.), as well as former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin (on her Facebook page).
Meanwhile, conservative, pro-Israel activists continue sending messages and contacting officials on the Hill to demand a show of support for Israel.

For the sake of this country, Mr. President, please stop this insanity! Israel is our good friend, so stop bending to those who would destroy this nation in a minute if given the chance.
