"Yesterday, Bush said at the U.S. Naval War College, 'In places like
Israel, terrorists have taken innocent human life for years in suicide
attacks…The difference is that Israel is a functioning democracy and it's not
prevented from carrying out its responsibilities. And that's a good indicator of
success that we're looking for in Iraq.' Citing Israel, Bush suggested that in
order to define success in Iraq, we should look at Israel’s model."
While I understand that they hate Israel, it is a strong democracy. I think it is interesting that he pointed to Israel, and not to America as a model.
