Appeal the nomination of Sen. Chuck Hagel for Secretary of the defense, because he is anti-Israel and pro-Iran.

Created by J.P. on January 07, 2013

Chuck Hagel has just been nominated as the next U.S. secretary for defense. His statements prove that he is anti-Israel and supports Iran. Here are some statements and facts about Chuck Hagel:
In October 2000, Hagel was one of only four Senators who refused to sign a letter expressing support for Israel during the Palestinian intifada.
In different remarks during the same month, Hagel accused Israel of carrying out a sickening slaughter in Lebanon. In the same remarks, Hagel said that the U.S. relationship with Israel need not and cannot be at the expense of our Arab and Muslim relationships. That is an irresponsible and dangerous false choice.
In August 2006, Hagel was only of 12 senators who refused to sign a letter asking the EU to declare Hezbollah a terrorist organization.
