"Reid and McConnell lead letter to Obama defending Israel in flotilla incident"
Now, here's a funny thing.
From the media coverage, you would think there were only a few supporters of Israel.
Then, on second thought, politicians are KNOWN for switching allegiance according to the venue.
Oh yes, and elections are not too far off. It's just so transparently obvious...

Eric Zimmerman reports at theHill.com:
"A huge majority of senators co-signed a letter to President Barack Obama Wednesday defending Israel's actions in the flotilla incident last month and urging the administration to oppose a U.N. resolution critical of the country.
Led by Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) — and signed by 85 other members of the upper chamber — the letter argues that Israel's blockade of Gaza was both legal and necessary, and that Israeli commandos were acting in self-defense when they landed on the ship."
