BEAVER, W.V., July 9 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Senator John Kerry released the following statement today regarding the International Court of Justice ruling on Israel's security fence:
"I am deeply disappointed by today's International Court of Justice ruling related to Israel's security fence. Israel's fence is a legitimate response to terror that only exists in response to the wave of terror attacks against Israel. The fence is an important tool in Israel's fight against terrorism. It is not a matter for the ICJ.
"I have made very clear from the start that I do not believe that the ICJ should even be considering this issue given that they do not have jurisdiction.
"We were right to oppose the resolution in the General Assembly and to convey this opinion to the ICJ. Several months ago, I joined in sending a letter to UN Secretary General Kofi Annan urging him to "act so that the ICJ does not...issue an advisory opinion on the legality of the security fence Israel is building."
"Our nation is rightly discussing with Israel the exact route of the fence to minimize the hardship it causes Palestinians. And Israel's own Supreme Court has looked at the very same issues and we should respect that process."

*scratches head*
Ah, I get it now. He was playing nice to get our votes. Now that he's lost, he's gone back to being his old mean self.
I'm not gonna say I'm glad he lost - because #1 I'm not sure he did lose and #2 - BUSH! EEEW! - but I'm not crying in my beer for him anymore.
check the date

umm.. check the date. He had said this back at the beginning of July. His stance on this was no secret during his campaigning. Too many people just chose to ignore it.
