Hi there,

In this chaotic news cycle it may be tempting to tune out, but we hope you won’t—only an informed and engaged public can defend democracy. In these times of deep political polarization we need news that goes beyond play-by-play headlines, news that goes to the heart of each story by asking people to tell their own stories of abuses of power and injustice in their own words. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Democracy Now!

Kerry: ’Israel’s cause must be America’s cause.’

HeadlineJul 06, 2004

Meanwhile The Boston Globe is reporting Sen. John Kerry has released a new policy paper on Israel in which he fully supports Israel’s construction of the 425-mile wall through the West Bank. Last year Kerry said the wall was a “barrier to peace,” but in the new policy paper Kerry writes “the security fence is a legitimate act of self defense.” The title of the paper is “Strengthening Israel’s Security and Bolstering the US-Israel Special Relationship.” In one part of the paper, Kerry concludes “Israel’s cause must be America’s cause.”
