One of Rick Perrys first acts after being elected agriculture commissioner in 1991 was to create the Texas-Israel Exchange, which promoted information and research sharing.
August 24, 2011: How Rick Perry helped stop the Gaza 'freedom flotillas' .>>>>"I once spoke at a mission that Perry took part in, in Israel," Darshan-Leitner recently told Commentary's Alana Goodman. "And he approached me and said, 'I love what you do. It's amazing what you do. If you ever need help combating Israel's enemies, I'm here to assist.' "
Perry made good on that promise in July, when a cohort of liberal activists boarded a Gaza-bound aid boat with the goal of breaching Israel's maritime blockade of the Gaza strip.<<< ..

June 29, 2011: ...."Perry wrote in a letter dated Wednesday, According to numerous recent media reports, American citizens and organizations, together with a coalition of violent anti-Israeli organizations from other countries, have organized efforts to breach Israels Maritime blockade of the Gaza Strip as early as this week.
He continued, The act of funding, supporting, organizing and engaging in these efforts appears to constitute participation in a naval expedition against a people with whom the United States is at peace, as well as material support or resources to a foreign terrorist organization and other violations.
Perry said at least two of the ships are registered in Delaware, including one named The Audacity of Hope, which was the title of President Barack Obamas second book.
The letter concludes, I respectfully request that the U.S. Department of Justice take immediate steps to investigate, enjoin and bring to justice all parties found to be in violation of U.S. law by their participation in these efforts. Source
Wonder why Kinky has had such a change of heart? Must be seeing what that occupant in the WH has done to this country. Then observing what Rick Perry has done for Texas.
Did you see the snarky remark about “retards” on FR in the comment space?
DUH....
LOL
I think Perry is going to sweep the election.
Me too...
Yes. He has written about his support for Israel. I read one of them several years ago, but cannot locate it in this house full of books I I can no longer read. I am not ready to place my support on Rick Perry yet. I am afraid he is one of the One Worlders, like the Bushs. We are so close to losing our sovereignty right now. If that happens we will never regain it.
As it stands, yes.
John Hagee is on right now here, talking about Israel I hope you are able to swee it.
Shoot, yeah! keep me on this ping list.
Just countin’ down the days until Perry breaks it off in this idiot.
So many Americans are under the impression that Texas can secede - many Texans are, too - I think the excitement of a man who really CAN change this mess with demonstrated HOPE for our depressed sister states..... I believe it’s resonating pretty well out there.
I know I barely follow politics anymore after the relief of Perry knocking these commies outta the park set in.
Anyways, good to see Kinky has slightly walked back from the dark side.
Thanks smoothsailing and shield.
The article leaves out the real money quotes from Kinky about Perry and Israel.
“As a Jewish cowboy (or Juusshh, as we say in Texas), I know Rick Perry to be a true friend of Israel, like Bill Clinton and George W. before him. There exists a visceral John Wayne kinship between Israelis and Texans, and Rick Perry gets it. Thats why hes visited Israel on many more occasions than Obama, whos been there exactly zero times as president. If I were Obama I wouldnt go either. His favorability rating in Israel once clocked in at 4 percent. Say what you will about the Israelis, but they are not slow out of the chute. They know who their friends are.”
That’s Great! Thanks!
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
