Former Israeli ambassador Oren slams Kerry comments
Secretary of State John Kerry is under fire from Israeli officials for claiming on Friday that the Jewish state will be blamed if Congress rejects the recently announced Iranian nuclear deal.
Kerry’s comments came during remarks before the Council on Foreign Relations. Analysts and experts on social media were quick to label the comments inappropriate.
“I fear that what could happen is if Congress were to overturn it, our friends Israel could actually wind up being more isolated and more blamed,” Kerry said.
Michael Oren, the former U.S. ambassador to Israel who recently released a memoir of his service in the Obama administration, quickly condemned Kerry’s remarks in a statement.
Congress will not reject the agreement due to pressure from Israel, but because they deem the Obama administration’s deal to be flawed and dangerous, Oren said.
“If American legislators reject the nuclear deal, they will do so exclusively on the basis of U.S. interests,” Oren said in the statement. “The threat of the Secretary of State who, in the past, warned that Israel was in danger of becoming an apartheid state, cannot deter us from fulfilling our national duty to oppose this dangerous deal.”
One senior official at a prominent pro-Israel organization in Washington, D.C. expressed alarm at Kerry’s comments, which appeared to intimate that Israel has the ability to control U.S. officials.
“We’re into the first week of congressional debate over the Iran deal and the president, the secretary of state, and their allies are already smearing shadowy moneyed lobbies and scapegoating Israel,” said the source. “What are they going to save for week two?”
U.S. lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have expressed reservations about the deal over the past week.
Under the parameters of the agreement, Iran will be permitted to keep its nuclear infrastructure and to continue its nuclear enrichment after a 10-year period.
The agreement will also lift restriction on Iran’s purchase of military hardware and its ballistic missile program.
Additionally, U.S. inspectors will be prohibited from entering any Iranian nuclear site under the deal.
Well, Kerry’s certainly being candid with his antisemitism now. “Inshallah”, right?
Just as much as Churchill is blamed for the Battle of Britain.
He’s playing to the old stereotype that Jews are not loyal to the nation they live in. It’s often been a contributing factor in anti-Semitism. He either doesn’t know this (unlikely), or he knows it and knows it’s a way to scare liberal Jews.
He actually is every bit as stupid as he looks...
The Botox went straight to his brain but he was a dumb ass way before that.
He really is evil.
...”Kerry: Israel Will Be ‘Blamed’ If Congress Rejects Iran Deal”...
That is a ‘manipulation’ statement....
Really???? The Jews are going to be blamed????
So does that mean the Catholics are going to be blamed because both Kerry and Nancy aren’t living up to the standards of the Catholic Church?
Or does this mean that Orrin Hatch and Harry Reid are going to be blamed because they aren’t living up to the Mormon Religion?
How much stupidity does Kerry think we have??? Not as much as he does or he wouldn’t be as stupid as he is!!!
When I think of Isaiah 3:4, I just marvel at the blatant veracity of its manifestation in politicians such as Kerry and so many others like him.
Blamed/Incinerated tough call!
"Our friends in Israel could actually wind up being more isolated and more blamed, and we lose Europe and China and Russia with respect to whatever military action we might have to take because we will have turned our backs on a very legitimate program that allows us to put their program to test."
Yeah, blamed by Obama, Kerry, and their ilk who cannot see that the treaty is bad on its merits.
I didn’t know a turd could smile. Maybe if you put ketchup on it.
There is no bottom limit to the dishonesty, unethical, and underhanded tactics democrats like Obama, Kerry and Clinton will employ.
blaming the damned Jooos for helping to save America from an Obama/Iranian/IslamoNazi nuclear ICBM attack
that’s the kind of blame they can handle, for sure

Poor widdle Kerry. He and his boss won’t get the hefty commissiin checks if the deal falls though. I bet they make more on those commission than most people earm in several years...
