Hillary Clinton addresses Hadassah.
said. "We all look forward to the day
when, as Prime Minister Barak said on
his recent visit, Jerusalem will be
home to the embassy of the United
States and all other nations."
That came several weeks after her
letter to the Orthodox Union stating
her belief that Jerusalem is Israel's "eter-
nal and indivisible capital" and her
hope that the embassy will be moved.
She spoke glowingly of Barak, who
visited the Camp David presidential
retreat with the First Family last week,
and echoed his plea to the president
for a diminished U.S. role in Mideast
negotiations.
Any peace in the region, she said,
"must come with a guarantee of Israel's
security; if there is peace, it must come
with the parties' commitment to fight
terrorism wherever and whenever it
strikes. The people of Israel have lived
far too long with bombs; they have
lived with the awful fear their children
will not come home from school alive."
She urged Congress to "make good
on the promises the president made at
Wye River, and continue our nation's
commitment to the foreign aid that is
necessary for Israel's security."
On the domestic front, she said,
"every American, not just American
Jews, should be outraged by the fires
set to the synagogues in Sacramento.
We have seen too many acts of hatred
and violence recently . . . Now we
must see to it that the Hate Crimes
Prevention Act becomes law."
Clinton offered a rousing defense of
public education, saying, "Mandatory
prayer has no place in our schools."
The Hadassah audience responded
positively to her pro-Israel state-
ments, but it was her focus on
domestic issues — including educa-
tion, gun control, a patient's bill of
rights, abortion rights, breast cancer
research and bars against the misuse
of genetic testing, a top Hadassah
issue — that provoked the strongest
and most sustained applause. 7
