John Kerry: Arafat a "statesman" and "role model" (Terrorist Dictator Dies) |
New York Post
March 8, 2004 -- EXCLUSIVE
Kerry's Yasser Woe
By DEBORAH ORIN
Democratic presidential nominee-to-be John Kerry called Yasser Arafat
a "statesman" and a "role model" in a 1997 book that Kerry cites as
proof of his own foresight about foreign policy.
Kerry expressed the opposite view eight days ago, when he told Jewish
leaders in New York that he shares President Bush's belief that Arafat
must be isolated because he's not a "partner for peace" -- much less a
statesman.
The revelation of Kerry's comments in his 1997 book "The New War"
comes on the heels of his contradictory remarks about Israel's
security fence and whether or not he'd rely on Jimmy Carter as a
Mideast envoy.
News of Kerry's about-face on Arafat comes as Bush is seeking to paint
Kerry as a waffler who can't be trusted because he flip-flops on key
issues.
Last July, Kerry told the Arab American Institute that Israel's
security fence is "provocative" and a barrier to peace, but last week,
he told Jewish leaders at a New York debate that the fence is
"necessary to the security of Israel."
"There's no question that I was none too pleased with reports on what
he said [to Jewish leaders]," said Arab American Institute head Jim
Zogby, a member of the Democratic National Committee who backs Kerry.
