YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

MS. IFILL: Governor, you mentioned Israel and your support for

Israel.

GOV. PALIN: Yeah.

MS. IFILL: What has this administration done right or wrong?

This is the great lingering unresolved issue, the Israeli-Palestinian

conflict. What have they done and is a two-state solution the

solution?

GOV. PALIN: A two-state solution is the solution. And Secretary

Rice, having recently met with leaders on one side or the other there

also, still in these waning days of the Bush administration, trying to

forge that peace.

And that needs to be done, and that will be top-of-an-agenda item also

under a McCain-Palin administration.

Israel is our strongest and best ally in the Middle East. We

have got to assure them that we will never allow a second Holocaust

despite, again, warnings from Iran and any other country that would

seek to destroy Israel that that is what they would like to see. We

will support Israel: a two-state solution, building our embassy also

in Jerusalem, those things that we look forward to being able to

accomplish with this peace-seeking nation. And they have a track

record of being able to forge these peace agreements. They succeeded

with Jordan. They succeeded with Egypt. I'm sure that we're going to

see more success there also.

It's got to be a commitment of the United States of America,

though. And I can promise you, in a McCain-Palin administration, that

commitment is there to work with our friends in Israel.
