I can't help but beat a dead horse. Here is another reason (#434, I think - I've lost count) why I thank G-d everyday that John Kerry did not win the 2004 election. This comes courtesy of The Bookworm Room, via the Wall Street Journal's Opinion Journal:

In September 2004, there was a huge gathering of anti-American, anti-Israeli organizations in Beirut to attend a conference entitled “Where Next For The Global Anti-War And Anti-Globalization Movements? An International Strategy Meeting.” The resulting manifesto, simultaneously turgid and strident, has as its primary goal attacking the U.S. war in Iraq. It’s secondary goal is to challenge Israel’s “occupation” of Palestinian lands. It’s a nasty document, with a decidedly anti-American tone. What makes it interesting today is the identity of one of the organizations playing host to all these anti-American Leftist organizations: Hezbollah (identified on the last page as one of the Local Welcoming Committees).

Aside from the little refresher about American and Israeli friends and enemies, the document has a couple more interesting participants. First, George Galloway was one of the attendees. You remember him, don’t you? He’s Saddam Hussein’s good buddy, Fidel Castro’s good buddy, a rabid anti-American, and someone who looks loathsome in a cat suit. (Little Green Footballs has been tracking Galloway’s exploits for some time. Just go to LGF and, in the search box, enter the world Galloway. You’ll enter a world of disgusting with all the posts that are returned on that subject.)

Second, one of the participants from the United States was a group called United for Peace and Justice. Ordinarily, this would just be one of the icky little anti-American groups that America produces, along the lines of Code Pink : Women for Peace (which also attended this little American and Israel hatefest). What distinguishes United for Peace and Justice is that Teresa Kerry funds it. So, in 2004, a couple of months before Americans decided whether to put John Kerry in the White House, his wife’s money was being used to fund one of the participants in a virulently anti-American meeting held in Beirut and hosted by Hezbollah. Once again, we have reason to be grateful that American voters put their money on George Bush.

UPDATE: For a little primer regarding Hezbollah’s deadly relationship with America, read this American Thinker post.
For those of you who voted for Kerry, even if it was just a vote against George Bush, this should serve as a wake-up call. Consider what would come of the State of Israel in a Kerry administration. Perhaps President Bush is not perfect and has made some mistakes regarding foreign policy. But had Kerry won, not only would Saddam Hussein still be in power, but would it even be a possibility that Israel would be able to disarm Hezbollah?

Absolutely not.

Because of the successes of the Bush Doctrine, every single Arab nation, with the exception of Syria and Iran, has stood back and allowed Israel to succeed. Never before, in the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict has that EVER happened. Not even once.

American Jews should remember this when they decide whom they should vote for in 2008. Voting for the party of Kerry, Dean and Pelosi is tantamount to voting for Hezbollah.

I kid you not.
