Reply #9: Dean Actually Says His Policies Are Same As Bush's

[DrFunkenstein]

"When they have bothered to state them, the Administration's guiding principles in the Middle East are the right ones. Terrorism against Israel must end. A two-state solution is the only path to eventual peace, but Palestinian territory cannot have the capability of being used as a platform for attacking Israel. Some degree of separation between Israelis and Palestinians is probably necessary in light of the horrible bloodshed of the past two years. To be viable, the Palestinian Authority must become democratic and purged of corruption." - Dean, at his Drake foreign policy speech.

Not to mention "Israel living side by side in peace and security with an independent, demilitarized Palestinian state."
