'Moral clarity' is crucial

By Ben Barber
THE WASHINGTON TIMES


Benjamin Netanyahu, the former Israeli prime minister who is expected to be a candidate again, yesterday urged the United States not to abandon its "moral clarity" in fighting terrorism, nor to withdraw support as Israel fights against Palestinian terrorism.

"Will America apply its principles consistently?" Mr. Netanyahu asked at a session with editors and reporters at The Washington Times.

Terrorism in Afghanistan and Iraq, he said, is the same as terrorism on the West Bank.

He was dispatched to the United States by Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, his rival in the Likud Party, to persuade America not to give in to European and Arab opposition to Israel's 13-day incursion into Palestinan cities.
