WASHINGTON —
A US conservative group led by major Republican Jews is testing for
reactions to a potential Israeli strike on Iran.
FreedomsWatch recently tested three questions with
a focus group
of Americans, the liberal investigative journal Mother Jones reported
Monday.
The questions, recalled by a focus group participant,
were:
"How would you feel if Hillary [Clinton] bombed Iran? How would
you
feel if George Bush bombed Iran? And how would you feel if Israel
bombed Iran?"
Martin Focus Groups in Alexandria, Va., polled at
least two such
groups, the magazine reported.
FreedomsWatch was established over the summer to promote
support for President Bush's Iraq war policy. It is led by, among
others, Bradley Blakeman, a former senior White House
official;
Ari Fleischer, the former White House spokesman;
and Matt Brooks, the Republican Jewish Coalition's
executive director. Lead funders include Sheldon Adelson
and Mel Sembler, two top Republican Party donors.
