The only good conservative is ‘a dead one’
Yes, Bush joins a long list of denigrated right-wingers who redeemed themselves with their last breaths. Menachem Begin, Ariel Sharon, Ronald Reagan, John McCain and others; on their deathbeds, they all went from dangerous fascists to venerated figures.

Jewish organizations applaud move to name Jon Kyl to Arizona Senate seat
“The U.S. has been criticized for taking unilateral action in Iraq. We would like to see how much support we could get from Europe on Iran to impose very serious and tough economic sanctions. Europe can still put a lot more effort into this,” said former U.S. Senator Jon Kyl.

In memory of McCain’s service to America, Israel and the Jewish people
John McCain also exhibited an amazing ability to be open-minded on issues; rare among politicians, he was not afraid to change his opinion and to publicly say so.

Sen. John McCain: A ‘brave hero’ and ‘stalwart friend’ of Israel
In July 2017, after McCain was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wrote: “Godspeed, @SenJohnMcCain. A hero. A fighter. A friend. Israel is with you.”

Why we still need heroes like John McCain
Even in this era of cynicism, honoring heroism and national service remains essential. Without it, the ideas that bolster America and Israel suffer.
