The United States takes offense at comments by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s new communications director accusing President Barack Obama of anti-Semitism and suggesting that Secretary of State John Kerry had the mental abilities of a 12-year-old, the State Department said on Thursday.
It said Kerry had spoken to the Israeli leader on Thursday and understood that Netanyahu “will be reviewing†the appointment of Ran Baratz after a U.S.-Israeli summit meeting at the White House next week.
Netanyahu and Obama are due to meet to try to mend fences after fierce feuding over the Iran nuclear deal that Israel opposes. As head of public diplomacy and media, Baratz, a 42-year-old philosophy lecturer, will be tasked with improving Israel’s reputation in the world. His comments were published previous to his appointment.
“His comments about U.S. officials, including the president and Secretary Kerry, we believe were troubling and offensive. We obviously expect government officials from any country, especially our closest allies, to speak respectfully and truthfully about senior U.S. government officials,†State Department spokesman John Kirby said.

Netanyahu should appoint a 12-year-old attache to keep Kerry entertained while the big folks parley.
Gosh, I would have aimed lower than that.

“mental abilities of a 12-year-old”?
NOt so and it is insulting.
Kerry has the wits of an 8 year old fool..
I’m not offended.
All three of Kerry's purple hearts were awarded for extremely superficial "injuries".
True, and the grain of rice came from him tossing a grenade into a villages’ rice store. No VC in site. What a maroon.
He was being too generous to the french looking guy.
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Incident from about 3 weeks ago. He's still media chief despite the protestations of the administration's mouthpieces. Closer to the truth than calling Netanyahu a coward too.
Regarding Kerry, that high?
“We expect government officials from any country...to speak respectfully...about senior US government officials.”
That doesn’t apply to the way US government officials speak about senior government officials of other countries, of course.
Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. Time to update that insult. He has the mental capacity of the 11-year-old light rail stabber, but before he got shot, because after he got shot, the actual kid surpassed Lurch.
