During Thursday’s White House briefing, the Associated Press’ Jim Kuhnhenn interrogated press secretary Josh Earnest over the Obama administration’s unequal treatment of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Kuhnhenn asked the White House flack why the Ayatollah is getting “the benefit of the doubt” from the administration over comments about the Iran deal last week, but Netanyahu does not after his comments that there would be no Palestinian state.
JIM KUHNHENN: On Iran, with talks, I believe, scheduled to restart next week, I want to go back to something the president said on Saturday at a press conference which was when asked about comments that Ayatollah Khamenei made he suggested that politics was driving that, internal politics in Iran. That there hardliners and in the end that might not end up being the final position that Iran takes in these negotiations.
A month ago, when Prime Minister Netanyahu said that under his watch there would be no Palestinian state, under the heat of the campaign, and then he later walked those comments back. The president still said that he believed the prime minister’s comment at the time.
I am curious why the Ayatollah gets the benefit of the doubt on his remarks but Netanyahu does not?

Well, that’s one way to lose White House Press credentials...
because in dear leader’s mind the ayatollah isn’t an icky jew- plain and simple- He’s made no secret of his hatred for jews
Simple, one is a fellow muslim and the other is a Jew.
I know why.
A: Because Obama is a muzzie.

Question answers itself
Hope the AP reporter taxes are squared away...audits can be a nightmare...
I also wonder how fast he will lose his job...
You can’t work for the AP and ask real questions of this administration....
That’s the leftist mindset and always has been.
Bad guys get the benefit of the doubt (”they’re only acting that way because of X excuse”),
and people who play by the rules are demonized.
It’s starting to feel obvious...
