In the race
for the 13th Congressional District seat, Republican Rodney Davis is facing
Democrat David Gill. Our Question: Have we accomplished our mission
of bringing peace to the Middle East?
David Gill: Over time I hope so. It's a long drawn-out
process now over a couple of millennia and hopefully we can bring a lasting
role of peace to the Middle East. It's certainly a large task.
Rodney
Davis: I don't think that was our initial mission,
to bring peace. I think there are different definitions of peace no matter
where you go in the world. I think that what we've accomplished in the Middle East
is showing the leaders in the there that we are serious about world peace.
We're serious about insuring that it remains a stable part of the world in a
geo-political manner.
