Senator McConnel Calls Israel Fence "Good Idea"
(Louisville Courier-Journal)James R. Carroll - During a recent visit to Israel, Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., the Senate's majority whip, was impressed after a helicopter tour of finished segments of the security fence that is still under construction. "I think the fence is clearly a good idea," he said. "To the extent (the fence) limits violence, it's helpful to the Palestinians as well," McConnell said. "It dramatically improves the chances of a (peace) settlement."
