The Republican Jewish Coalition has sponsored newspaper ads accusing Obama of "dangerously naïve foreign policy thinking" when it comes to the Middle East. On May 22, 2008, Obama held a town hall meeting at the B'nai Torah Congregation, a synagogue in Boca Raton, Florida. In these excerpts from his speech, Obama pledges an "unshakable commitment" to Israel and argues that the war in Iraq actually endangers Israel.
