Susan Rice and Israel

"So when I sat down last week with Susan E. Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, there was one question on my mind: How much of your job is spent on Israel?  "This week?" she said. "A hundred percent." She laughed, saying she was only being a little bit facetious.  Then she turned serious.  "It's a significant part of my job. It's not the majority of my time, because I am the U.S. permanent representative," Rice said. "But it is never the smallest piece. It is always there.""
