The Obama administration on Wednesday vented its anger at the Israeli defense minister’s 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 Israel’s security. Previously, Yaalon has criticized Kerry personally for being unrealistic and naive in trying to forge an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal. …

Irate?

Obama and Kerry are two frustrated antisemites
who (will) continue to try to give away Israel’s capitol,
and to all free terrorists AND arm them, because they
think they can (and the US Congress agrees).

If God is with Israel, they don’t need us. If God isn’t with Israel, nobody will be able to help. 70 AD did happen.

We coddle and cower to our enemies and attack our friends.

Makes sense to me.

Actually I believe obama, kerry, and the democRATs are cold and calculating ... I see their aim (obama, kerry, and the democRATs) as to destroy and kill anything American and Israeli, which in the long run makes obama, kerry and the democRATs unrealistic and naïve. (mho)

Iran has missiles in Eritrea, pointed at the Red Sea oil shipping lanes; Putin has invaded Ukraine; the dictatorship in Venezuela is collaborating with Iran, Russia, and Cuba; the Iranian-backed koranimals have been launching missile attacks against Israel continually for decades; but the only noteworthy diplomatic problems are Ugandan sovereign law and Israel’s distancing itself from the supposedly impartial mediary in the “peace” negotiations. Impeach Now ping. Thanks Olog-hai.
