"What is your position on Palestinian property rights?
- John Arthur Wills, 61, Oakland
Sen. McCain: There can be no secure future for the region without a secure Israel at peace with neighbors that recognize its right to exist. U.S. policy must ensure that Israel retains its qualitative military edge in the region. Only a strong Israel can have the confidence to strike a permanent peace with the Palestinians, a peace I will seek as President. But such a peace can only progress when Palestinians abandon terror as an instrument of policy and show a capacity for self-government."
