Why? Do you believe that Israel would benefit more if the rally were held in SLC, or are you content with taking an anti-mormon cheap shot?
A) Isn't Salt Lake the center for his belief system? Why would that be a cheap shot. If he were still Catholic I would have inserted the Vatican City.
B) Yes. This event would make more sense in SLC and no, I do not think this rally makes any sense being in Israel. If he wants to make the defense of Israel from it's current enemies the primary thing, wouldn't rallying here to make sure a pro Israel President is elected in '12 make sense? It would effect more real change then what he is proposing. By reading past posts on this thread, others have stated with clarity that this is not something that the Israeli people will look positively on. It is not America and they don't hold our sensibilities. If this is just to promote Courage in our people, are there not enough tough issues in our country today that would fit the bill and would not cost people an arm and a leg to attend in this economy?
This whole thing is off and the fact that he can't even fully explain it to his true believers should send peoples radar up. Just read some of the comments at his site. Mine went up last week when the photos of his trip there showed him wearing a yarmulke when non was necessary for people of other religions.
