If she was in third grade, this would be cute:
During a tour of the Western Wall Palin expressed support for Jews praying openly at the Temple Mount asking her Israeli tour guides, “why are you apologizing all the time?” The Jerusalem Post reported.
The Temple Mount, a holy site to both Jews and Muslims, is one of the world’s most contested religious sites.
One of Palin’s tour guides World Likud Chairman Danny Danon said Palin “really connected to the story of the Jewish nation.”
According to The Jerusalem Post, Danon said “I can clearly say from the questions she asked in relation to our conflict here with the Muslims in these holy sites that she knows that we are right and that the Muslims are just claiming things for provocation and they’re not right.”
The former Alaska governor prayed at the Wall and left a note with a personal prayer in it.
“It’s overwhelming to be able to see and touch the cornerstone of our faith,” Palin reportedly said. “I’m so thankful to be able to be here, and I’m thankful to know the Israel-American connection will grow and strengthen as the peace negotiations continue.”
I don’t really know what to say. I hope Netanyahu has a very rewarding and intellectually stimulating dinner with Sarah and Todd. I hope he learns all about elk meat and moose dressing. And I expect he’ll pat her on the head and tell she’s very discerning for realizing that he’s right, nearly everyone else is wrong, and there are a lot of cry babies in the world who are just trying to be provocative.
Some days I just want to bang my head against a wall. Recently, the feeling can go on for a whole week.
