George W. Bush is not arriving as Clinton did for the death of an Israeli Prime Minister, nor are there any "peace" ceremonies awaiting Bush as Clinton and Carter enjoyed before him.
Bush is coming as a friend.
And this is the story of a friendship between two countries which share common democratic values and goals.
For those of you who wish to attack Bush - you are in the wrong forum.
Yes - he may not be perfect.
Yes - he may not be Israel's puppet.
And yes - he may not even move on releasing Jonathan Pollard - but this man is Israel's friend.
Each hour he spends flying towards and away from Israel he puts his life at stake for us.
Each footstep he takes in Jerusalem honors this small nation.
He is not running for office. He has no ulterior motives other than the security of the United States of America and her allies.
We are witnessing history.
We are witnessing a sacred friendship of two nations fighting on the front line in the war against global Islamic terrorism. To preserve freedom, security and peace.
This is our story.
This is our message.
Let's wish Bush, Olmert and their messengers: Danny Seaman, Mark Regev, Arye Mekel and Micky Rosenfeld the very best of success.
Also a very large thank you to the staff of the Israel Project for their many creative efforts on behalf of Israel.
In the hours and days to come, I will be reporting live in this blog and for the Israel News Agency on the historic events taking place in Israel.
Wish us luck!
