After announcing he will be skipping Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu”s speech to Congress for a trip abroad, US Vice President Joe Biden and Secretary of State John Kerry both met on Saturday with Labor leader Isaac Herzog on the sidelines of a security conference in Munich, Germany.
The two sides insisted that the meetings were informal. But it reportedly revolved around security matters and the Zionist Union’s defense strategy, Israeli media reported.
On Friday, Biden announced he’ll miss Netanyahu’s speech to Congress due to a pre-scheduled overseas trip, yet unnamed. Both Kerry and President Barack Obama said last month that they would not meet with Netanyahu during his visit to DC, citing its proximity to the March 17 elections.
But that didn’t stop them from meeting with Herzog, who’s trailing Netanyahu and the Likud Party in recent polls.
In his speech at the Munich conference, Herzog said, “The time has come when Bibi (Netanyahu) must announce the cancellation of his visit to Congress. In conversations I’ve held with many European and US leaders, it is clear there is great anger over Netanyahu diverting the discussion on Iran’s nuclear program for political gain, and turning it into a confrontation with the president of the United States.”
“This speech that was born in sin, as an electioneering ‘production,’ endangers the security of Israel’s citizens and the special relationship between Israel and the US,” the opposition leader charged.
Speaking to Israel’s Channel 10 Saturday night, Herzog doubled down on the prime minister, saying that Netanyahu “won’t get to meet with a single American official on this visit — not from the National Security Agency, not from the White House, not from the State Department,
“It’s a complete boycott. Even if that’s not stated, that’s the story,” he said.
Funny.
It was Kerry and Kennedy who met with the Nicarauguan communists while the White House supported the rebels there. So john Kerry supported our enemies then, against official United States policies and diplomatic efforts.
It was Kerry who met with the North Vietnam negotiators DURING Kissinger’s Paris peace negotiations - WHILE our troops were still sighting the North Vietnamese enemy in open combat.
It was democrats who met with Che and Castro while they were our enemy. Who supported Communist China in the late 40’s and 50’s over the Nationalist fighters. It was democrats who sat in North Vietnamese gun seats, when our pilots were fighting.
So, now that Kerry is our Sec of State, isn’t his White House still meeting with our enemies? Why are Kerry and Obola opposing what they actually did?
I believe politicians think behavior like this is acceptable but to the common citizen this is considered very immature middle school behavior.
And where is the corrupt MSM to call out Obama?
The MSM IS the enemy.
We see it the same way. One thing about Biden... often when he is quoted (with a lot of derision for being “stupid”).. saying something....if you listen to what he says, he is actually tipping America off to what O is plotting (or actually even doing) behind our backs
Biden has done this many times already, so that we think he may be doing it intentionally (perhaps he has some conscious, some concerns about what O is doing to us..or at least about HOW O is doing us??? Its just possible...really...)
either way on that last point, but Biden can be worth listening to at times .... really.......not for any “brilliance” and not for any really great, helpful, constructive proposals.. but just to learn a bit about what his boss is up to...since we are the ones that always feel it “in the end” (so to speak)
just my 2 cents. worth. Keep or flush as you see fit.
Kerry is such a deceiving AH@le we never can stand to listen to him, like his boss.
Best,
I absolutely despise this human trash.
Scum-sucking swine.
Obama and his cronies think that by getting rid of BiBi, it will make things easier for Iran, thus making it easier for Iran to destroy Israel, which is their major goal..they know under BiBi he would destroy Iran by himself if he had to. Israel is on its own here, sad but true..they no longer have America as its strongest ally because we have a Commie Muslim schmuck who wants to see Israel wiped off the map
Hee hee. Bibi will win re-election. Any candidate Obama’s team touches fails. And Israeli citizens strongly dislikes Obama too. And they vote. Being seen with and siding with the worst national leader ever should kill his chances. I’m sure Netenyahu is fine with the clown parade meeting with his opponent.
Course the media will not point any of this out so they can protect their messiah.
All bozo cares about is putting radical activist judges on the bench and pushing his communist social issues like homosexuality, cross dressing etc and the libs are OK with that so long as he can make this country a country of white minority by brining in illegals and their kids, then their families, then their extended families..
What are the polls saying over there, do they have Bibi looking good?
I would have tbought that after the NAZI’s and then their battles with muslims then there would be no left wing parties , but it goes to show their is and how the left are mentally demented
Just said the same, The media will cover for him again
Does this not tell you everything you need to know???

How much has Soros put in seeing as he paid just over 30 million for what happened in MO
How about we trade. We take Bibi and give them Obama and Biden and a player to be named later.
But of course. It's "not fair" that Israel has nukes and Iran does not.
Do I really need a sarc tag?
On the farm, a cow will occasionally stand up and step on a teet. Not good. That is the American Foreign policy under Obama.
Related in a sense: The Presbyterian Church USA no longer allows the mention of Israel, both Old and New Testament, or modern day Israel in song or sermon. Man, people are really hating Israel.
wow. just wow.
tampering in foreign country’s politics?
crude.
doing it so openly.
Priceless.
Someone with either a strong sense of irony, or none.
Do the speech, Bibi. I won’t vote for you anyway, but do the speech.
