WASHINGTON (AP) The Obama administration pushed back strongly Monday at a torrent of Israeli criticism over Secretary of State John Kerry's latest bid to secure a cease-fire with Hamas, accusing some in Israel of launching a "misinformation campaign" against the top American diplomat.
"It's simply not the way partners and allies treat each other," State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.
Her comments were echoed by the White House, where officials said they were disappointed by Israeli reports that cast Kerry's efforts to negotiate a cease-fire as more favorable to Hamas.
"Israel has no better friend, no stronger defender than John Kerry," said Tony Blinken, President Barack Obama's deputy national security adviser. He said the criticism of Kerry was based on "people leaking things that are either misinformed or attempting to misinform."

“It’s simply not the way partners and allies treat each other,” State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.
No mention that the State Dept prays at the
actual statue of Arafat within it,
as it funds Hamas through Lerner and Obama
to exterminate all Jews and Israel,
and to crucify Egyptians.
No mention at all. SSDD.

I am glad Obama’s pissed at Israel. BHO is evil and deserved to be made uncomfortable. Maybe he’ll lapse into his usual self pity and revert to a fetal state (snicker).

Today marks 3466 days since 01/30/2005 when "Hanoi" John Kerry promised, on national TV, to sign form SF-180 and release his military records.

Truth hurts.
It's not a "misinformation campaign" when it's a campaign against misinformation.
Kerry is not one bit misunderstood or misquoted either.
The Israelis are sharp, they got Kerry's number exactly.

John Kerry is a traitor. He accused 2.5M Viet Nam Veterans of being baby killers and war criminals. He negotiated with the North Vietnamese as an officer during time of war. So what is he doing differently now?

Wow. After all Obama’s cozy and affectionate relations with Muslims and all his insulting rhetoric toward Israel... this takes nerve!!

Obama is in a panic to stop Israel’s push in Gaza because Hamas is getting its collective ass kicked.
Hamas’ collective ass needs a lot more kicking.

US my @$$. There aren’t any fumes coming out of the US except for the communist ‘RATholes. When it comes to supporting the Islamofascists or the Israelis, REAL AMERICANS have chosen to side with the Israelis.

We'll never know the full extent of Kerry's traitorous ways since Jimmah Cahtah swept it under the rug.
