Sen. John Kerry, Massachusetts Democrat and chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Tuesday that he would not be able to make a scheduled Tuesday speaking slot because of a conflict, though his staff and J Street say they are hoping to reschedule his appearance at some other time during next week's three-day conference.
ANOTHER SPEAKER AT THIS PRO HAMAS ,PRO IRANIAN AND PRO HEZZBALLAH ANTI ZIONIST GROUP
But by taking on the long-established AIPAC and the hawkish Israeli government, and by embracing individuals who have expressed hostility to Israel, J Street also has alienated some veteran Israel supporters in Washington. For example, one of next week's speakers is a Muslim activist who has said that Israel should be considered a suspect in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
