Gaza crisis: Obama administration accuses Israel of not protecting civilians
Fox News ^ | 18 JULY 2014 | AP

Posted on 07/18/2014 5:51:24 AM PDT by BCW

The Obama administration accused Israel on Thursday of failing to do all it can to prevent civilian casualties in Gaza during cross-border attacks. Noting the deaths a day earlier of four boys who were killed on a Gaza beach by an Israeli strike, the State Department said the high civilian death toll in Gaza has been "heartbreaking." Three more children were killed in Gaza on Thursday. Still, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki also criticized Hamas militants in Gaza who continue to fire rockets and mortars into Israel, prolonging the latest round of violence in the Mideast that has so far killed 235 Palestinians and at least one Israeli. "I don't think we've made any secret about our strong concern about the actions of Hamas, the indiscriminate rocket attacks, the targeting of civilians," Psaki said. "And that concern remains."

What does State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki have to say about the Christians being slaughtered in nations controlled by Moslems? About ISIS raping girls in Iraq and the mass executions of Christians there...???

Was her grandfather Joseph Goebbels?

Maybe that too, but my primary impression is one of an over-promoted lightweight ditz.

The 0 regime is responsible for the deaths of dozens if not hundreds of Mexicans ans central Americans by enticing them to dangerously travel and be smuggled into the US.

The Obama administration through John Kerry has demanded that Israel confine its operation to destroying tunnels near the northern border with Israel and taking out missile launchers. The Israeli public is unified in wanting Hamas destroyed.

This is going to make for negative fallout on Netanyahu, who kowtows to the Americans more than most think he should.

Jen "Sloppy Seconds" Psaki has no credibility to speak on any subject - she's just another of this administration's campus radical, pablum spewing "gals" Obama and Kerry send out to make fools of themselves.

Jenny, baby - cheap eyeglasses and arrogance font necessarily mean you're smarter than anyone

Plus maybe those so called “civilians”, should not be housing those Hamas members. Who the hell can tell which are which?

It isn’t about “the children” with Obama, it’s about protecting muslims.

“jen psaki is a moral degenerate.”

I give Shep Smith some credit. Paski went live during Sheps show yesterday. Shep wanted to cut over to the News Conference until he realized that Paski wasn’t even leading the news Conference with either Flight 17 or the Israeli Offensive. She trots out their like some slow news day just reading the Admins. talking points. Shep just unloaded on her.

It’s breath taking how many 20 and 30 year old coke addled lightweights this Admin has surrounded itself with. When you read their Bios inevitably you will see why, Mommy or Daddy is a big lefty Donor in Academia or some Marxist think tank.

Scripture said this would happen in the Last Days. “What’s right will be wrong, and what’s wrong will be right” Liberals today in the US have turned this all around. Today if you are a moral person, you are considered stupid and irresponsible. So Jen is a classic liberal, who thinks that Israel somehow has control over the Hamas who use women and children as human shields. Hamas famous for placing command and control centers in schools, next to play grounds, in Mosques, and is high density population areas thinking this will protect them from Israel. Hamas really hate women and children because they use them as connon fodder to further their cause. Now that is the real abuse

Hamas is an army of civilians. Not a government’s standing army.

Yeah, well that test, "failing to do all you can" is bogus anyway. There is ALWAYS something more that can be done. ALWAYS. Especially in hindsight.

Like Glenn Reynolds says, it's Potemkin government all the way down.

That’s pretty much the standard for this administration. Where else would you get a “dude, that was like, two years ago. . .”
