Title: "Bush against Sharon" radio episode
Description: An audio recording by Oregon Congressman Les AuCoin on the topic of President Bush's stance in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict following a then recent attack by Israel (perhaps a raid in Gaza). AuCoin points out how Democrats Tom Lantos and Gary Ackerman called out Bush and defended the Prime Minister of Israel, Ariel Sharon. AuCoin agrees with Bush that it is "right to get tough with Israel" with equal sterness in order to help contribute to peace in the Middle East and for US security purposes. This is one episode from AuCoin's biweekly radio show on Jefferson Public Radio (JPR), which ran after he had retired from office. The majority of episodes feature his commentary on current political events, often focusing on issues important to southern Oregon where JPR is based. This episode aired in June 2003.
