LITTLE ROCK — A speech by former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert has drawn protesters at Fayetteville.
A group of about 10 protesters gathered in front of Barnhill Arena on the University of Arkansas campus Tuesday evening, several of them carrying signs.
“Olmert is a war criminal,” said a sign carried by 21-year-old Jacob Holloway, a student at the university. A sign carried by another protester said “Olmert has very bloody hands.”
Abel Tomlinson, a graduate student at the university and president of a campus group called Students for U.S. Independence, said that, when bombs are dropped on an urban center and children are killed, that’s unacceptable.

Agreed, except in the military, where civilian casualties are an 'unfortunate' part of war, what Israel is responsible for in the West Bank and Gaza is unacceptable, and the former Prime Minister should know we think so, whether or not 10 or 20 sign-carrying protesters in Fayetteville, AR got that message across or not...

This is why the U.S. gives billions to Israel. It's the Jew-united States of America.
