The back and forth banter between Israel and the United States over Iran’s nuclear aspirations continued on Wednesday, as Secretary of State John Kerry questioned Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s judgment when it comes to Iran.
The comments, according to The Huffington Post, came as Kerry was testifying before the House Foreign Affairs Committee. Committee member Rep. Albio Sires (D-N.J.) pointed to Netanyahu’s upcoming address to the Congress as evidence of the weakness of the deal being negotiated between Iran and the six world powers.
“The Prime Minister was also profoundly forward-leaning and very outspoken about the importance of invading Iraq and George W. Bush,” Kerry shot back, referring to Netanyahu.
The Secretary of State, who voted in favor of the Iraq war while serving in the Senate, added that Netanyahu "was extremely outspoken about how bad the interim agreement was, calling it the ‘deal of the century for Iran.’”
He was referring to the deal reached between the sides in November of 2013, under which Iran committed to limit its uranium enrichment to five percent and is gradually winning access to $4.2 billion of its oil revenues frozen abroad and some other sanctions relief.
"Israel is safer today with the added time we have given and the stoppage of the advances in the nuclear program than they were before we got that agreement, which, by the way, the prime minister opposed," Kerry claimed, according to The Huffington Post. "He was wrong."

Lurch doesn’t need stupid pills.
Lurch is, however, making even more of an Ass of himself than he normally does
Perhaps Bibi could ask Lurch to show us his Viet Nam medals again?
It’s wrong to question the Magic You-Know-What.
Hey, Kerry! Take a sneak.
You are an abomination unto the Republic.
I find it hard to believe that Netanyahu ever supported invading George Bush.
As far as I recall, Bibi was more in favor of taking out the Iranian regime back then.
Hillary Clinton was supportive of Iraq war in 2003 as was Kerry, and many Dems.
They repeat the lies, on national television, and they get away with it. No media calls them out on it. Nobody. I’m sure there is archived video of Kerry and Hillary back in 2003. But where is it being played at?
Bibi wanted to invade George W. Bush?
Maybe he meant George Bush Sr.? He wanted to catch him in the shower and give him a good buggering?
I distinctly remember Hillary on PBS, in one ‘interview’ shown on tv. This specific interview was after Saddam was removed in Iraq, but at that time 2004-2005, the U.S. was dealing with Islamists (insurgency) in Iraq. She admitted to supporting “the War on Iraq” in 2003, but then said Congress should’ve taken more responsibility in authorizing the war.
No, that’s silly!
Kerry served in ‘Nam you meanie old FReepers!
This is an example of the type of stuff Netanyahu could have expected to have lobbed at him at a reception hosted by Feinstein and Durbin.
A McCain or McConnell would have Mcwalked right into it.
"We, the German Führer and Chancellor, and the British Prime Minister, have had a further meeting today and are agreed in recognizing that the question of Anglo-German relations is of the first importance for our two countries and for Europe. We regard the agreement signed last night and the Anglo-German Naval Agreement as symbolic of the desire of our two peoples never to go to war with one another again. We are resolved that the method of consultation shall be the method adopted to deal with any other questions that may concern our two countries, and we are determined to continue our efforts to remove possible sources of difference, and thus to contribute to assure the peace of Europe." ........ Neville Chamberlain
me thinks he doth protesteth too much
by trying to get ahead of the speech they are exposing weakness..... nobody likes a whiner
Bibi went to MIT whereas Lurch only went to Yale
Who are you going to believe, Bibi, or Kerry/Obama?
