Rahm Emanuel in My Life, by Bill Clinton

On Homeland Security: U.S. citizen but served in Israeli army

In 1991, we also persuaded another young Chicagoan, Rahm Emanuel, to join our campaign. Rahm had worked with Wilhelm in the successful campaigns of Mayor Richard Daley and Senator Paul Simon. He was a slight, intense ma who had studied ballet and, though an American citizen, had served in the Israeli army. Rahm was so aggressive he made me look laid-back. We made him finance director, a job in which an underfunded campaign needs an aggressor. Source: My Life, by Bill Clinton, p.376-377 Jun 21, 2004
