'Kerry's actions - a series of mistakes and failures'

MK Moti Yogev (Jewish Home) attacked US Secretary of State John Kerry on Sunday after the latter lashed out at Israel, arguing that current trends in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict are leading to a “one-state” reality.

"With all due respect and gratitude to our friend the United States, the reality has proven that all of John Kerry's assessments and diplomatic actions in various sectors of the world were a series of mistakes and failures: in Egypt, Ukraine, Syria and also in Israel," Yogev blasted.

"His opinions and speeches are disconnected from the Middle Eastern reality," Yogev charged, adding that "the land of Israel belongs to the people of Israel."

"There never was a Palestinian state here and there never will be. Our responsibilities in Judea and Samaria were and continue to be our security and the strengthening of communities throughout Israel, including the fabric of the lives of Arabs living here."

"Part of the answer to terror is the certainty that we returned to Judea and Samaria to strengthen our hold on them forever," he added.

"The views of Kerry, and [Labor leader] Buji Herzog are cut off from the faith of Israel, from the security situation and responsibility," Yogev slammed. "Our presence in Judea and Samaria is to guarantee the security of the state of Israel."

In his speech before the Saban Forum in Washington on Saturday night, Kerry asserted Israel could not remain a Jewish and democratic state within the framework of a "one-state solution."

He also berated the Israeli government and said that despite Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's expression of support for the establishment of a Palestinian state, several Israeli cabinet ministers have declared their opposition ...

Yes. Several ministers are opposed, but he needs them to form a coalition from which to govern, so he can either kick them out of the government and hold elections, or he can take into account their views. It's what happens when you get enough votes. The government must take into account your ivews, either as a member of the government or opposed to it. I hope this lesson in civics is not wasted on you, Lurch, and why it would help if the PA made some conciliatory gestures towards Israel, such as recognizing its right to exist as a Jewish state, and agreeing to end hostilities at some predefined point.

Never F with a country that names their wars by the number of days they lasted... its simple math.

[abclily]

Arabs are so jealous of the Jews. Jews brought the 10 Commandments to the world. Arabs hate God-given Jewish law that leads to civilization. Arabs want the whole world to be barbaric...and apparently, so does Kerry.

From the mind of a 12 year old...

“Series of Mistakes and Failures” sums up the entire period of November 2008 to present...

[Eric in the Ozarks]

What’d you expect from this moron?

[Netz]

I had no expectations from this administration but they have outdone themselves in stupidity and recklessness...

[trebb]

Put some ketchup (catsup?) on him - he's cooked as any sort of envoy/ambassador.

At least those who host him can give their own court jesters a day off ....

We need to ensure he's out and Hillary (or Jeb or Rubio, or most of the rest) doesn't follow him...

Now for a short public service announcement to all on FR:
We need to ensure we don't get another Obama-like America Hater as the next President.
The best way to ensure that is to actively support a candidate as the next President.
I prefer Cruz and my money goes to his campaign, hence the Cruz link. If you like someone else, donate to him/her (find your own link to do it) and if you use FR and don't donate, then please don't complain about the welfare leeches or those who have Obama Phones because, functionally, you are no different than any other FReeloader

PS - If you are one of those who cannot afford even a small donation to FR or a candidate, God Bless and happy FReeping!.....

GO CRUZ!! Keep it up Trump!!

Donate to FR

Donate to Cruz

‘Kerry’s Life - a series of mistakes and failures’

[Dogbert41]

I think what some might call “mistakes” and “failures” are actually well planned and well thought out attacks on America’s Allies. The only thing that makes any sense at all is that maybe we changed sides. It’s as if in1944 we pulled our troops out and started supplying the Nazis and Japanese with supplies, and took in refugees from Japan and Germany - mostly military aged men.

I think he was in Vietnam. He failed there too. Though I guess one could say he succeeded at being a gigolo...if that could be counted success, e.g. Mark Champselle, “The VIPs” (1963)

[Eleutheria5]

Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. He got three Purple Booboo awards, and used them to leave Vietnam. His exit from Vietnam was successful, and he then used his combat “experience” to start a political career, marry a couple of rich chicks, and become a Secretary of State. Pretty successful, if we must grudgingly admit it. Al that he failed at was serving with distinction in Vietnam, which was never his goal.

[onedoug]

I strongly suspect he was kicked out of the Navy, and thus was the trigger (or an aspect of it) for Carter’s discharge review process of the late 70s.
