Robert Kennedy, age 22, reporting from the besieged city of Jerusalem for the Boston Post in April of 1948, one month before Israel declared independence:
In the previous post, I posted a YouTube of George Galloway hailing Bobby Kennedy (in his reference to Obama), and I also link to a Memri post showing Galloway spewing Israel-hatred on Hamas TV. It is too bad that Galloway is apparently unfamiliar with Robert Kennedy's strong sympathy and support for Israel. These are remarkable writings from a very dangerous place at the time. I was unaware of these writings and I thank LFG for enlightening me on this.
UPDATE: I have now read all of the Robert Kennedy's writing published here. I am truly amazed at the maturity and complexity of Robert Kennedy's writing, and his understanding of the Middle East situation during a truly dangerous and difficult time. This is the writing of a remarkable person...especially considering that he was only 22!!!! I thank Lenney Ben-David of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs for researching this priceless material. I am a real history buff and thought that I had come across virtually everything relating to this period. But I had never seen this. Wow!
