On Lubbock’s First News on KFYO, Congressman Randy Neugebauer said that President Obama’s recent comments calling for Israel and Palestinians to seek a solution to their conflict based on 1967 borders were inappropriate.

“Obviously, he spent the weekend trying to backtrack that some,” Neugebauer said.  “I think it certainly leaves doubt as to the level of commitment that this president has to Israel.”

Neugebauer said Israel is one of our greatest allies in that part of the world at a time when we don’t have many friends in that area, and Neugebauer said it’s time for stronger ties with Israel.
