Good thing Kerry is Secretary of State
If we had somebody that wasn’t an international joke, Israel might have to take what he says seriously .
Despite years of pledges that the U.S.-Israel alliance is “unbreakable,” “ironclad,” and “unshakeable,” the Obama administration on Monday threatened the relationship over Israeli criticism of Secretary of State John Kerry.
According to the AP’s Matt Lee and Julie Pace, administration officials used ”unusually harsh language” to declare that “criticism of Kerry could put the relationship between the U.S. and Israel in jeopardy” and had “crossed a line.”
At press time, the Israel section of the Obama campaign’s 2012 website still includes statements such as “America & Israel: An Unbreakable Bond” and quotes from President Obama such as “America’s commitment and my commitment to Israel and Israel’s security is unshakable.”
