U.S. Senator: 'If you attack Israel, you are attacking the United States'

“If you attack Israel, you are attacking the United States,” said U.S. Senator Daniel Inouye, in an unequivocal display of support for Israel as war drums continue to beat over Iran's nuclear program. “If one looks at most of this world, especially the Middle East, one country stands out as a foundation of stability and as a pillar of democracy," he continued, "and at a time like this, when you have revolution in Yemen, Bahrain, Syria, Egypt, Tunisia and Jordan, thank God we have Israel."
