Kerry calls parents of terror victim Ezra Schwartz, says no excuse for Palestinian terror
The Times of Israel ^ | 11/23/15 | Tamar Pileggi

US Secretary of State John Kerry called the bereaved parents of American terror victim Ezra Schwartz, 18, who was killed in a shooting attack in the West Bank last week, to express his condolences. Kerry made the call from Abu Dhabi, the first leg of his current Mideast tour which will bring him to Israel and the West Bank on Tuesday.

He told reporters before contacting Schwartz’s parents that there was no justification for Palestinian terror attacks against Israelis.

“Look at Ezra Schwartz, who got shot, and another young life cut short,” Kerry told reporters in Abu Dhabi, according to Reuters. “It happens almost every day over there and it’s terrible, and too many Israelis have been killed and stabbed, and too many Palestinians. And there’s no excuse for any of the violence. There’s just no rationale. Even if you’re unhappy and you’re disappointed in the lack of whatever the political horizon is, whatever, violence is not the solution.”

Schwartz, a yeshiva student from Sharon, Massachusetts was laid to rest on Sunday, three days after he and two other people, including a Palestinian man, were gunned down in Gush Etzion, south of Jerusalem, last Thursday. Kerry served for almost three decades until 2013 as a US senator from Massachusetts.

well, KerryObama, stop sending tons of money and arms and military training to the terrorists then

just calling a victim’s family does NOTHING to get America out of sponsoring and enabling and encouraging worldwide Moslem terrorist murder gangs like PA/PLO/Hamas/MoslemBros/Hezbellah/ISIS/Iran, etc and etc

stop promoting and financing and arming the various IslamoNazi terror gangs, and STOP IMPORTING THEM INTO USA!

then we can talk

Leave it to Kerry to make the terrorist killings of Israelis, Americans, Jews, Christians and even Moslems by the psycho Palestinians an act of equivalency to the Israelis defending themselves in their own country.

“and too many Palestinians”

Ah, that old moral equivalence. Old as in stale, rotted, and putrid.

Don’t worry, he’ll immediately up the aid the US gives to the Palestinian terrorists by a couple hundred million dollars.

You know, you never, ever hear about Theresa Heinz anymore. Never. Her name does not cross over John Kerry’s lips. Is she in a loony bin? A permanent detox/drug center? Where is she? Why doesn’t Kerry ever talk about his wife or is never seen with her?

Meanwhile, as to Kerry himself, he murmurs sweet words to these bereaved parents, while he prepares to stick the stiletto in the State of Israel’s back. Just like he did to his fellow Viet Nam war Vets. Kerry is a snake in the grass.
