Sounding the alarm
Debbie Schlussel warns that Jihad Darrell Issa is in line to become Chairman of the Republican policy committee in the US House of Representatives:Follow the links and read the whole thing.Why are so many respectable GOP Congressman (plus Hezbollah pimp Rep. Ray LaHood) supporting Hezbollah/Arafat/Syria devotee and anti-Semite, Rep. Darrell Issa a/k/a Jihad Darrell, for Chairman of the powerful Republican Policy Committee? Has the GOP given up on fighting terror? Is that the message they got from last week's elections?
If it is, they'd better wake up.
Why is the possibility that Jihad Darrell could get this position a frightening prospect and an outrage? Read my piece from the Los Angeles Jewish Journal in 2003. It's also accessible at DarrellIssa.net (which I own).

I should tell you something about Darrel Issa (r-CA).
For one thing,while he's critical of Israel and I disagree with a lot of what he has to say, he's a Lebanese Christian with a better voting record on Israel than many Democrats who tout their `pro-Israel' views...including some who identify themselves as Jews. Contrast his voting record with Henry Waxman's sometime.
He's an entirely reasonable guy and to call him `jihad Darrel' is unfair.
You should also know that Congressman Issa, at considerable personal risk to himself went to Lebanon at Arik Sharon's behest to try and negotiate for the release of the last batch of Hezbollah hostages..you know, the ones that were kidnapped while the UNIFIL guys were standing there watching.
He was unsuccessful,but received a personal thanks from Sharon for the attempt.
And no, I don't work for the Congressman or have any personal interest..I don't even live inh is district.
