The Obama administration on Wednesday vented its anger at the Israeli defense ministers public criticism of the U.S. and his personal insults of Secretary of State John Kerry.
In a new sign of tension between top officials of the two allies as Washington tries to forge an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal and negotiate with Iran over its nuclear program, Kerry called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to protest recent remarks by Defense Minister Moshe Yaalon.
Yaalon this week accused the Obama administration of being weak on Iran and questioned its commitment to Israels security. Previously, Yaalon has criticized Kerry personally for being unrealistic and naive in trying to forge an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal.

Truth hurts.
Obama and Kerry can pummel Israel because they’re pathetically weak on Iran and Russia. They really do have Israel’s back.
At some point Bibi is going to tell Obama to ‘Bite Me’ and unleash hell on Iran.
Obama and his cronies can’t admit that Obama’s ass has been handed to him by Putin, but I think we all know that is what Obama wanted from the start, after all, he promised to be more “Flexible” with Russia after the election
Obama doesn’t like Israelis not drinking the Koolaid of a bad “deal” with Iran, and goes after them.
The US is not Irate ... The Regime is Irate!
Kerry is a puss and even he knows it.
I hope that Bibi told Kerry that his DM was right!
If the shoe fits...
Obama irate ????????????
you mean Valerie is irate.......
Obama still sticks Milk Duds in his ear
Describes obama, kerry, and the democRATs perfectly.
I can’t blame Israel. Their future security depends on a president who has shown contempt for them and is “working” with Israel’s sworn enemy on a no nukes agreement.
“US irate with Israeli defense minister comments”
WoW!
More impotent than we really knew!
Elections do have consequences and when you elect someone without any REAL experience “you get what you pay for.”
We (the US) and our Allies are in deep $hit — God, please help us from all enemies foreign and domestic, but right now, mostly domestic.
The very last people on earth the little pr!ck can bully are Americans. For now.
Get over it.
appointing Kerry SoS was an insult to every American servicemember. How his appointment got by Congress, I’ll never know. But here’s to Israel for calling him out - Lord knows our own press won’t.
“Previously, Yaalon has criticized Kerry personally for being unrealistic and naive in trying to forge an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal. ”
... as opposed to Obama/Kerry/Biden telling Putin that “He’s on the wrong side of history?”
It’s pretty obvious that we dodged a major bullet when John Kerry lost his presidential bid. But now that he’s SecState he’s showing just how thin-skinned he really is — and I thought John McCain was bad!
Maybe Obama should apologize to Israel for encouraging international isolation and action against Israel if it doesn’t agree to a US sponsored peace deal with the Palestinians.
