Lesson to the "Pro-Israel" Right: Be Careful What You Ask From Congress
Posted: 9/21/11 05:23 PM ET
Israeli diplomats, AIPAC, and other groups on the American Jewish and Christian right are learning a tough lesson today: Be careful what you tell Congress to do on Israel, because it might come back to bite you.
For months they have been whipping Congress into a state of hysteria over the Palestinian plan to go to the UN. They mustered bipartisan near-unanimity around the proposition that if the Palestinians didn't back off, U.S. aid to the Palestinian Authority (PA) would be cut off -- a message formalized in House and Senate resolution, in letters from House appropriators, in the FY12 Foreign Operations Appropriations bill and in statements delivered by members.
But a House hearing last week on aid to the Palestinians highlighted the growing realization of what cutting off aid to the PA would mean for Israel: an end to security cooperation that has allowed Israel to enjoy historically low levels of violence and the collapse of the PA.
Veteran Israel hardliner and neocon Eliot Abrams told the committee that he was not in favor of cutting aid to the PA. David Makovsky of the Washington Institute of Near East Policy -- a think tank closely aligned with AIPAC -- argued that the group that would gain the most from a cut off of aid to the PA would be Hamas. Jonathan Schanzer from the neocon Foundation for the Defense of Democracy suggested that the impact of cutting aid would be "devastating." Shortly thereafter, news broke that Israel is calling for the international community to continue aid to the Palestinians, as made explicit in an Israeli report presented at a donors conference at the UN on September 18, which stated, "Israel calls for ongoing international support for the PA budget and development projects..."
Will Congress now re-think and retract its threat to cut off aid to the PA? Perhaps, but only if the government of Israel, AIPAC, et al give members of Congress the necessary political cover.
These are difficult times for members of Congress who genuinely care about Israel -- because more than at any time in the past, Israel has been turned into a partisan football. House Republicans, egged on not only by AIPAC, but by the likes of ECI , the RJC, the ZOA, and CUFI, have eagerly seized any pretext to attack the president and Democrats for not being "pro-Israel" enough -- often endorsing positions that are extreme even by Israeli standards. This tendency was on display with Rep. Walsh's (Tea Party-IL) recent introduction of a resolution endorsing Israeli annexation of the West Bank.
Many Democrats have played the same game, tacking ever-further to the right to prove that they are no less "pro-Israel" than their Republican counterparts -- even at the expense of President Obama's peace efforts (and Israel's best interests). This phenomenon was on stark display with Rep. Israel's (D-NY) introduction of a bill seeking to cut off military aid to any country that votes for a Palestinian initiative at the UN.
The government of Israel, AIPAC, et al have recklessly encouraged this trend, heedless of the danger posed by a Congress whose members are more interested in outflanking each other with dogmatically hawkish positions than they are in what is genuinely good for Israel (and the United States).
With the issue so politicized, the normal exit strategies are not available. In the past, Congress might have passed the buck to the president, passing legislation cutting off aid to the Palestinians, but giving the president waiver authority. Such a scenario seems unlikely today. Republicans in this Congress have shown an unwillingness to give the president unfettered waiver authority when it comes to Middle East aid. Given their fervor for cutting funding for pretty much everything (except Israel), getting GOP members, and particularly Israel's new best friends in the Tea Party, to support a waiver could prove difficult.
Democrats in Congress would (correctly) view a waiver-based solution as a trap. Republicans in Congress would claim tough pro-Israel credentials for imposing sanctions, and then paint the president -- and Democrats in general -- as not "pro-Israel" if the president were to exercise the waiver. As we enter an election year, it seems unlikely that Democrats would allow this to happen.
Which takes us back to today's lesson for the government of Israel and AIPAC, et al. They are the ones who pushed Congress to climb this "pro-Israel-means-cutting-Palestinian-aid" tree. Now, if they truly care about Israel and not just about partisan game-playing on the issue, they will have to provide a ladder for Congress to climb down.

September 22, 1499: Switzerland gained de factor independence from the Holy Roman Empire. Jews begtan settling in Switzerland in the 13th century. During the first half of the 14th Century, the Jewish community of Basel was on the largest in Europe. However, during the last half of the 14th century and on 15th century, successive bans drove Jews from the homes in various cities and cantons. The bans were primarily caused charges of well poisoning tied the spread of the Black Death. By the time Switzerland gained her independence only a handful of Jews remained in this mountainous states. The Jewish population would not begin to grow again until the end of 18th.

Isle of Iona in the Reilig Orain (S. Oran's Chapel),
The altar slab of the Cathedral itself came from MacKinnon's country of Strath. It was one of the finest pieces of marble ever seen, being granulated and pure white. No trace of it now remains. Close to the altar on the north side of the choir, is a tomb stone of black marble quite entire, on which is a very fine recumbent figure of the Abbot MacFingon, as large as life, in his sacred robes, with a crozier in one hand, and the other lifted up to his chin, elbowing two lions at one end, and spurning two at the other. This elegant tomb stone which has always been considered the stateliest in the island, is supported by four pedestals about one foot high, and round the margin is the inscription, "Hic jacet Johannes Macfingone Abbas de Hy [Iona,] qui obiit anno Domini millessimo quingen tessimo [I500], Cujus animae propitietur DEUS altissimus. Amen."

Go back twenty generations, to about 1500 CE, and there could be, theoretically, over one million ancestors who could have contributed to your nuclear genes. In practice, many of these potential ancestors will actually be the same individuals, whose lines of descent have come down to you along different pathways, crossing between males and females through the generations in an unpredictable way. Tracing the genealogy of all 30,000 genes through this maze of interconnections would be quite impossible.

The ban was in force until the 16th century. Limits on Jewish immigration would reappear with the British White Paper. Like many other members of Ottoman royalty, Selim employed a Jewish physician.

Washington persisted in his attempts to secure the military bounty lands. In 1769, Governor Botetourt of Virginia at last gave him permission to seek out a qualified surveyor and to notify all claimants that surveying would proceed. Once the surveying was completed the land could be divided among the remaining Virginia Regiment veterans or their heirs. Washington arranged to have Crawford appointed the "Surveyor of the Soldiers Land." In the fall of 1770 Washington, Crawford, and a fellow veteran named Dr. James Craik set out from Fort Pitt by canoe to explore possible sites for the bounty lands, making notes and observations as they journeyed to the junction of the Ohio and Great Kanawha Rivers and several miles up the Great Kanawha.
The next year, Crawford began to survey the tracts he and Washington had identified on the Great Kanawha expedition. Eight of these tracts are shown on a composite map now in the collections of the Geography and Map Division that Washington drew in1774 from Crawford's surveys. Out of a total of 64,071 acres apportioned on the map, 19,383, or approximately 30 percent, were patented in Washington's name. In a 1794 letter to Presley Neville, Washington said that these lands were "the cream of the Country in which they are; that they were the first choice of it; and that the whole is on the margin of the Rivers and bounded thereby for 58 miles."13In addition to Washington's acreage the map shows the lands surveyed and apportioned to other Virginia Regiment members, including Colonel Joshua Fry, Colonel Adam Stephen, Dr. James Craik, George Mercer, George Muse, Colonel Andrew Lewis, Captain Peter Hog, Jacob Van Braam, and John West. Several of these individuals were distinguished in their own right. Joshua Fry, for example, was one half of the team which produced the well-known 1755 Map of Inhabited Parts of the State of Virginia, considered to be one of the finest examples of colonial mapping; Jacob Van Braam had bn Washington's interpreter at Fort Necessity in the French and Indian War; and Dr. James Craik was Washington's lifelong friend and physician.

George Washington To CHARLES SIMMS

Virginia, September 22, 1786.
Dear Sir: I now sit down to avail myself of your friendly offer of serving me, whilst you are on your Western tour.
I give you the trouble of some letters: that to Mr. Smith I leave open for your perusal, please to seal before delivering it. Mr. Smith has my Patent. Posey’s Bond on which my military right was founded, and on which the warrt. for surveying issued, together with every other public and private document which could be obtained in evidence of the regularity and le¬gality of my claim. The plea of the Defendants will be, I know, that I cannot trace any steps of regular and authentic roceedings, back to their occupancy. For say they, you can md no entry in the Surveyor’s books, nor on the records of ouncil, previous to the Survey; which is the first legal process iou can adduce, and this is not dated ‘till Feby. when our set¬lement of the Land was in the month of Octr. preceeding, iay more, your warrant of Survey, which was laid upon this and, received date in Novr. subsequent by a month to our ettlement. The latter (under the rose) I believe is fact, and is as unaccountable, as it may be unlucky, as my purchase frc Posey (for the express purpose of covering this tract) is made, as will appear by the Bond, if my memory has not c ceived me, in the year 1770; this difference, if it is not found in mistake, is altogether incomprehensible, as the land w explored and surveyed for me the first time in the fall of or early in the following year; and this right, as I have befo observed, was intended as the legal security of it.
The first and second surveys, or in other words, the leg return of the first differing in dates, were both made by Capt (afterwards Colonel) Crawford. The first was made whil his commission was local; given for the express purpose surveying 200,000 acres granted by Mr. Dinwiddie’s Proclam; tion, to the officers and soldiers of the first Virgia. Regimen The second, or, as I have before mentioned, the return, w~ made after he had received a deputation under Mr. Tho Lewis for Augusta, in which County the land was suppose to lie, and this I believe did not happen ‘till Feby. 1774; cor sequently the date was made subsequent to the date of th deputation.
Upon these grounds, my legal title I am convinced will b disputed, with a view to establish their occupancy; but there i an act (an authentic copy of which I have sent Mr. Smith which legalizes the surveys of Crawford from the period h first held a commission from the College. But for Argument~ sake, supposing my Patent, and every thing which led to th attainment of it, were mere nullifies, and my military clam out of the question, had I not an equal right with any other Cit. izen or subject, to obtain land in that Country? It cannot lx laid to my charge that I have been either a monopolizer, or land-jobber, for I never sold a foot of Land in the Country, nor am I possessed of an acre west of the Alleghaney (and the quan¬tity comparatively speaking is small) that I do not hold under military rights; except the tract at what is called Washing¬ton’s bottom, and about 2 or 300 acres at the Gt. Meadows, both of which I purchased: the latter at a high price. And that I surveyed this land before the defendants ever saw it; built one or more Cabins thereon before they came into the Country; hired people to live on it; gave them repeated notices of my right afterwards of the consequences of their usurpation, are facts. But whether evidence can now be obtained in support of all of them, is questionable; as the two Crawfords who were my principal Agents in that Country are both dead, others knowing to the transactions, removed, and a third sett unwill¬ing, I have no doubt to come forward. Yet under all these dis¬advantages, Charles Morgan will be able, or I am mistaken, to prove that the survey was made a year or two before the De¬fendants pretend any claim to occupancy (the date of which requires better proof than their own assertion). And I think he is the most likely person to prove also that there were cabbins ~rected thereon for my benefit, claims antecedent to those of :he Defendts. purchased by Crawford on my accot. to avoid iisputes, a man hired to live on the land to keep others off it, md that frequent notices were given to them of the lands being nine, and admonishing them to quit it.
Marcus Stephenson must be knowing to many if not all of hese circumstances, but a spell of sickness, I have been told, mas impaired his memory, and may have rendered him an unfit vidence. Major Hite and George McCormick, or the brother who married Col. Crawfords daughter, cannot, I shou’d think, be unacquainted with many of these facts. There can be i question of Col. Cannon’s testifying to what I have recit in my letter to Mr. Smith, because I had the information fro. his own mouth and he is a Gentn. of credit. I should think strange indeed, if Col. Jno. Stephenson from his connexk and intimacy with Col. Crawford is not privy to most of the. things. Possibly Mrs. Crawford may be as strong an eviden to some points as any one. Captn. Swearingin also seemed i have knowledge of them.
The reason of my being so particular with you, my good Si is, that if any of these people should fall in your way, and upo enquiry it shall be found that they possess the knowledge conceive of these transactions, but are unwilling to come fo ward, that effectual steps may be taken to compel them. Ther is reason to apprehend that an oath only will extort from som of them all they do know. Cob. Cannon, Chas. Morgan, Max cus Stephenson (if he has recollection enough), and perhap Majr. Lite, must be more intimately acquainted with Coic Crawfords proceedings on my behalf in the early stages of thi business, than any others. Morgan or Lite surveyed the Land M: Stephenson carried the chain, and, I believe made the im provements. What G: McCormick and Captn. Swearingir can say in the case, I know not, both I believe would willingl) serve me, and would point out if they are acquainted witf them, the evidences that may be essential on the tryal if it shall be found necessary for me to attack on this ground.
The enclosure No. 2 contains some queries which were put to Mr. Smith, but not answered, tho’ touched upon by him as appears by his letter No. ~. I will thank you for doing what shall seem necessary in this business. There is an open Accot. between Vale. Crawford and me, by which it appears that he is about (100?), in my debt. Conscious of this, and of my en¬gagements for him, unsollicited, he wrote me the letter and sent me the Bill of sale referred to in my letter to Mr. Smith of the 8th. of May last, and now in his trust.
My Lands in Pennsylvania (west of the Laurel-hill) have been so unproductive of every thing but vexation and trouble, that I am resolved to sell them at long or short credit, as may best suit the purchaser, provided I can get near the value of them. The tract where the Mill is, lying in Fayette County, and commonly called Washington’s bottom, contains about 1650 acres. The one in dispute, lying in Washington County, contains about 2,800 acres. The defendants were a long time deliberating on eligibility of giving me 25/pr. acre, rather than to engage in a Law suit; but finally chose the latter: they must give more now if I cost [sic] them. Should you hear of any purchasers, or if you could discover the price it is probable to obtain from them, you would render me a service by the communication. Incbosed are several advertisements, one of which I pray you to have set up at the Court houses of the County in which the Lands lie, at Pittsburgh, and at such other places as you may think best.
I give you the trouble of proving (I believe before a Magis¬trate) the power of Attorney which I have executed before you, and to send it with my letter inclosed to Major Thomas Free¬man who does business for me in that County.
I paid Mr. Smith, at the time the Ejectments were brought, some where about J2o If you could by indirect or other means, discover what would be proper compensation for his trouble in this business, I should be much obliged by it. I have had in the course of my life, so little to do with Law and La yers, that I feel myself extreamly awkward in these matters.
With sentiments of great esteem, etc. T

George Washington To THOMAS SMITH

Mount Vernon, September 22, 1786.
Sir: the letter which you did me the favor of writing tc me from Philada. the 9th. ulto. came duly to hand.
A fever, of which I am but just well recovered, makes me fearful of encountering the bad roads and disagreeable accom¬modations between this and the Western Country at this sea¬son: other circumstances too, rendering it inconvenient for me to be from home at this time, have combined to set aside the journey I had it in contemplation to make to the Court of Nisi prius to be holden in Washington county State of Pennsyl¬vania, on the 23d. of next month. Nor, upon a revision of the notes with which I have furnished you, do I see wherein I could add aught to them, were Ito be present at the trial. The summoning of a Jury so long before the merits of the cause will come legally before it, is, in my opinion, very much against me; for there can be no doubt but that every indirect (if not direct) means, which the Defendants and their friends can adopt, will be used to impress the members who constitute it, with all the circumstances favourable to their claim. However, if it is an event to be regretted, it is equally unavoidable, as it is constitu¬tional.
There were Proclamations (as I have observed on a former occasion) and orders of Council in this State previous to the Revolution, which, could they have been adduced, might have subserved my cause, in as much as it would have appeared from them, that tho’ military rights were recognized, and warrants of Survey were actually issued by the Executive previous, to the occupancy of the Defendants; yet, that their settlement of the Lands which were considered as appertaining to the State of Virga. was expressly contrary to a pointed Proclamation, consequently must not only have been illegal, but highly un¬warrantable, as it was an invasion of private right (for the De¬fendants do not deny having been informed that the land was surveyed for me) as well as a contempt of public authority; however, the records of these proceedings are lost, as you will find by the authenticated Certificate, which has been hereto¬fore sent you.
My opinion of the case, as I have mentioned in a former letter, is, that the legal title ought to be insisted upon strenuously; and that the Deed, as it was the last solemn act of the Government, shou’d be considered as conclusive evidence of the regula of the antecedent proceedings; it being a fact well knowr this Country, that by the removal of the Records from \ liamsburgh whilst the enemy were manoeuvering in the St many of them were lost or destroyed. To argue otherwise, i arraign the conduct of the Government in the managemeni its own internal policy; and I do not know under, or by w authority the State of Pennsylvania can now, after having made a solemn compact with this State, by which she engages to c firm all legal established titles, go into such an enquiry, But notwithstanding, from the complexion of matters it should conceived that the plea of pre-occupancy is likely to ha weight; I would then as if to shew that even on that grou~ the defendants stand hindmost, call evidence to prove that tI land was surveyed for me before they came into the Countr that a cabbjrt if no more (for one remain’d there in 1784) w built on the land before they ever saw it; that Col. Cannon has 1axed himself thereon before them; but discovering traces of regular Survey, and upon enquiry finding it was made for m quit it after having done some work thereon; that the Defen ants were also told that the land belonged to me, whilst the were in the act of settling upon it, and were repeatedly it formed of it afterwards, and admonished by public notices am private intimations of the hazard they run, as I was determine( (as soon as my public duty would allow me to attend to privatt concerns) to assert my right to the land. These all are indubi table facts; but where the evidences are, or by what means they can be drawn forward to prove them, are questions which I am not able to solve; unless Cob. Crawfords letters will be ad-mitted, and those persons whom I have named in the notes formerly sent you, will make them appear.


As I have confided this cause entirely to your management, I should, if Mr. Ross’s abilities had not spoke so powerfully in his favour, have been perfectly well pleased at your choice of him as a coadjutor. With talents such as you describe, I cannot but be highly satisfied therewith.
My friend Col. Simms, who will do me the favor of pre¬senting this letter to you, is called to the Western Courts in your State on some business of his own. He perfectly under¬stands the Laws of this State, the practices of our Courts, and the principles of our Land Office, and may be able to com¬municate much useful information. You may place entire confidence in him, safely trusting him with all the communica~ ions I have to you and with a sight of the papers if he should ncline to see them.
I am much obliged to you for the information respecting the 3ill of Sale from Vale. Crawford. At the time of my writing o you on this business, I was quite ignorant of the agency rou had in the matter, on behalf of another, the declaration in which will, I hope, be an apology for my application to you ri a case where you were Counsel for another. I have re¬quested the favor of Col. Simm to do, or cause to be done ihat shall appear just and proper in this case. To secure my ebt is all the inducement I have for resorting to the Bill of Sale. I ought my good Sir, to have recollected the trouble you have ad in this business ‘ere this, and I intended to have compen¬‘ted it out of the funds I had in that country, but in truth ~ey have been very unproductive, but if you will be so obliging to inform me by Cob. Simm with what sum can equal your :pectations, I will resort to other means to lodge it in Philadel¬tia for you. With very great esteem, etc.
