John Kerry invoked his Vietnam War service to push back against an Israeli cabinet member who criticized his recent comments on the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.
During a security conference in Munich last weekend, Kerry suggested that if his Israeli-Palestinian peace effort fails, there could be serious consequences for Israel.
For Israel there is an increasing delegitimizing campaign that has been building up, Kerry said, without condemning the effort. People are very sensitive to it. There are talks of boycotts and other kinds of things.
In response, Israels economy minister Naftali Bennett harshly criticized Kerrys failure to speak out against the delegitimization campaign at the conference.

But he has not been attacked by the One who can burn his soul in hell, yet. Listen the the Rabbis, dufus.

This is quite bizarre. I presume SOS Kerry is unaware that, in Israel, even the little kids know the sound of "real bullets", rockets too. And in government, well, combat vets aren't as rare as they are here.
Since his presumably informed, though bizarre, criticism is directed at Naftali Bennett, it's worth noting that we don't know if Bennett has been under fire. And probably won't, since his active duty and ongoing reserve service included serving in the Sayeret Matkal and Maglan special ops units. Naftali has served in Lebanon, but I'll bet he's never been to Cambodia for Christmas.
Diplomacy of this nature would embarrass most third world countries.
