“We need steady hands and not a president who says he’s neutral on Monday, pro-Israel on Tuesday and who-knows-what on Wednesday because everything’s negotiable”, she told the AIPAC in Washington.

Hillary Clinton delivered a speech at the same venue that showed why she is ready to be president.
“We can not be neutral defending our allies”, Kasich said to the crowd of AIPAC activists in Washington, D.C.
Trump added that he built “the tallest apartment house in the world” across the street from the U.N. – called Trump World Tower – “and if the United Nations weren’t there, perhaps I wouldn’t have built it in that location”.
“If elected president, I will work tirelessly to advance the work of peace as a partner and friend to Israel, but to be successful we have to be friendly not only to Israel but to the Palestinian people”.
Ms. Clinton, Mr. Trump, Mr. Cruz and Mr. Kasich all thought peace was elusive in region because of Palestinian positions.
Trump is the frontrunner for the Republican US presidential nomination, despite previously risking the wrath of conservative foreign policy voters by suggesting he would be neutral in the Israeli-Palestinian dispute. But her actions too often take a very different path. “I would veto a deal with the United Nations”.
Most have low opinions of the two political parties as a whole as well – though the Republican Party is viewed far less favorably than the Democratic Party. His promises to round up immigrants and build a wall on the Mexican border caused unease among many who attended, but his criticism of Obama’s Iran nuclear deal was well received.
“With President Obama in his final year – yeah!” “It’ll be fine, and I guarantee you we’ll have a good time, and it’ll be a fun convention in Cleveland”, Priebus said. Discussions have been swirling about an attempt to bring a security council resolution on the terms of an eventual agreement between Israel and Palestine.
Trump believes the protesters share in the responsibility for the unrest. But his other supposedly bold stands have just been rhetorical feints at reasonableness.
Trump speech was full of claims about things that he is not going to let happen when he is president, but what was missing in his speech was any actual policy.
He worked to soothe those worries on Monday in a major speech before the annual gathering of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
Trump took only a minor shot at Clinton and ignored his remaining GOP rivals all together.

“We have to combat these trends with even more security and diplomacy”, said Clinton. Bernie Sanders, the race’s only Jewish candidate.
