"Israelis need to understand that they're not the 51st state, and they certainly don't want to be treated like America's stepchild. Continued
economic assistance when they're doing quite well is demeaning." -- Representative (then speaker of the House) Bob Levigston at a press conference
in Jerusalem as part of a congressional delegation to celebrate Israel's 50th birthday (Quoted in Ha'aretz 11/10/1998).
I wonder what will happen to this guy........politicans who speak out against Israel dont last long in the beltway. Just look at Nixon, Traffikant,
and others........
