Pirro's Pro-Israel Props

Not a huge Jeanine Pirro fan, but I am a fan of the pro-Israel front she put up on the Nachum Segal show yesterday when asked her wievs on about Lebanon's war with Israel. Ben Smith reports, noting Pirro's Lebanese roots:

She took a hard pro-Israel line: "The root of this problem is Hezbollah," she said. "Hezbollah is as much an enemy of the Lebanese people as it is of the Israeli people."

As for the Israeli military action in Lebanon, "At the end of the day it will benefit Lebanon."

It's nice to hear some words of support - especially as from what I'm reading, watching and hearing these days, I fear that the tide of public opinion has been turning against Israel, even among those who started off in support of Israel's offensive. It doesn't help that news reports seem to relish pointing out the disparity in the civilian casualty numbers from Israel and Lebanon.

Update: TTC thinks she's pandering, along with her fellow candidates for AG, here.
