Desperate for Mideast Deal, Kerry Gets Earful from Netanyahu About ‘Unabated Incitement’ Against Israel

Bridget Johnson

Kerry and President Obama are both desperate to make the forging of some peace plan a legacy issue, and Kerry quickly jumped into the task after Secretary of State Hillary Clinton — who was reportedly critical of Obama’s stance toward Israel — left the post.

Hamas not only dismissed Washington’s fresh push for talks over the summer, but welcomed Kerry by firing at least three rockets from Gaza into Israel over the past five days.

..........

Netanyahu continued to pour a reality check on Kerry’s plans...

“This Palestinian Government incitement is rampant. You see it in the state-controlled media – the government-controlled media – in the schools, in textbooks, in kindergartens. You see it at every part of Palestinian society. So instead of preparing Palestinians for peace, Palestinian leaders are teaching them to hate Israel...” he said.

“I’m determined above all else to defend my people and my state, and I will never compromise on the security of Israel and its citizens and on the vital interests that protect our future,” Netanyahu vowed.

........

Kerry acknowledged “that there are many who are skeptical of whether or not the two parties can achieve peace..."

... “On a personal level, last month I traveled to Vietnam on my first visit there as Secretary of State. And the transformation in our relationship – I was a young soldier who fought there – the transformation in our relationship is proof that as painful as the past can be, through hard work of diplomacy history’s adversaries can actually become partners...”...

It’s a little known fact. He hardly ever mentions it.

“Desperate for Mideast Deal,”

That is what worries me. They want to get a deal to make themselves look good no matter the expense to the country. Nevel Chamberlan(sp)indeed.

As I read it, Kerry left the military under circumstances similar to a section 8.

Netanyahu should cause JF’nK to deserve some real Purple Hearts.

Kerry, like Clinton will FAIL.

She failed in Egypt and Libya.

He will fail in Iran and Israel. Oh, and he'll fail in his attempt to get a US global warming bill as well.

The mil vets who have known him and worked around him since have interesting stories to tell. But of course no one will ever hear them.

Thanks smoothsailing. Bibi would be doing the world a favor if he had just pulled out a pistol and blown Lurch’s head off.

You aren't fooling the rest of us. After 'Winter Soldier', Genghis, you were sucking up to the Communists in Paris, in violation of US Law, and your oath as a naval officer.

Where's your DD214?

Why does Israel keep kowtowing to Obama and Kerry, releasing murderers and promising “concessions”. Wasn’t the Oslo catastrophe enough? Just wait Obama out 3 years. What can he do? Congress won’t ever punish Israel for standing up to The Usurper.

When Kerry goes to Paris does he talk about the time he committed treason there?

That's really good for the Israelis to be reminded that they can turn out like South Vietnam. In case anyone needs to be reminded:

#1. A peace agreement was engineered by then Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.
#2. Henry Kissinger received a Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts.
#3. The agreement fails.
#4. South Vietnam falls as American forces retreat.
#5. The "boat people" - a flood of refugees from South Vietnam fleeing for their lives.

Just exactly what was the message Kerry wanted to convey? Obviously a follower of the Biden school of public speaking.
