Christie apologized for the gaffe.
Not long after his speech, Christie met with Adelson privately in the casino moguls office in the Venetian hotel and casino, which hosted the RJC meeting.
The source told POLITICO that Christie clarified in the strongest terms possible that his remarks today were not meant to be a statement of policy.
Instead, the source said, Christie made clear that he misspoke when he referred to the occupied territories. And he conveyed that he is an unwavering friend and committed supporter of Israel, and was sorry for any confusion that came across as a result of the misstatement.
Adelson accepted Christies explanation, the source said.
...
Before the meeting, Adelson ally Morton Klein, president of the hawkish Zionist Organization of America, had confronted Christie about his use of the term, telling POLITICO he explained to the New Jersey governor that at minimum you should call it disputed territories.

He will never give up.
Apparently his attorneys got $650 per hour to clear him of Bridgegate, to a total of $1 million for the taxpayers of New Jersey (Bob Ingles - Gannett Press). Add to that the special election he required for U.S. Senator (in which he refused to campaign for a REAL Republican Steve Lonegan), PLUS the money the DemocRats are spending for THEIR Bridgegate “investigation”, and Christie is a regular tax dollar sewer for the people of New Jersey.
SOME CONSERVATIVE!
Christie loves Christie. He likes being gov. Any hopes for the presidency are in the garbage because of the cr** he pulled with Obama.
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has demonstrated again and again that his brains are buried deep in his derriere. There is little between his ears. He doesn’t understand the child abuse he’s blessed in forbidding therapy to New Jersey young people seeking an escape from sexual orientation dysphoria, a developmental mental illness. He hugs the anti-family, anti-working-man Barack Hussein Obama just because there was a storm and the tide was up.
Now he shows that on foreign affairs he has does nothing but skim the headlines of Islamist propaganda sheets. He is not gubernatorial material after all. He certainly is no more presidential material than Barack Hussein Obama, the biggest charlatan in U.S. history. Christie’s self-centered and criminal retaliation against the drivers of New York and New Jersey shows that he is far from harmless in his childishness.
Christie should be sentenced to five years steady work as a toll collector on 12 hour shifts on the George Washington Bridge. He claims his staff did the traffic blocking for his office, not for him and did so without telling him! Did he hire such people or did someone else? He’s known them all his adult life. Mr. Portly should sit on a low civil service rung of the Port Authority ladder with no decision-making power.
He is an Islamophile. My guess is Muslim “Republican” bagman Grover Norquist is feeding him dollars.
No such thing as a gaffe. He inadvertently said what the Obamanistas told him to say as a first installment of what they’ll require of him to get them off his case.
I hate these liars like Christie and Adelson...nothing but left wing Dems hiding in the GOPe.
