‘Embarrassing’: John Kerry Skewered over Cease-fire Talks and Compared to an ‘Alien Who Just Disembarked His Spaceship’

Jul. 27, 2014 7:10am   Sharona Schwartz

The Israeli government and left-wing driven media are fuming at Secretary of State John Kerry over his botched efforts at forging an Israel-Hamas cease-fire, with a prominent diplomatic reporter likening him to an alien who just descended to Earth from a spaceship.

Sources in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet speaking on background plastered the Israeli media over the weekend with their assessment that the Kerry proposal was a one-sided capitulation to the demands of Hamas, a group designated not only by Israel but by Kerry’s State Department as a foreign terrorist organization (FTO).

Barak Ravid, diplomatic correspondent for the left-wing Haaretz newspaper, who has made a career of bashing Netanyahu in his coverage, has now penned among the most scathing descriptions of Kerry’s failed mission, denouncing the secretary of state over his lack of “judgment and perception of regional events” and accusing him of all but lying in his effort to paint a more rosy picture of his progress this weekend.

(Saint's note:  I can't get the tweet over.  Let's just say . . . it ain't complimentary towards Kerry.)

This, as the diplomatic correspondent for Israel’s top-rated television news show, Channel 2’s Udi Segal, quoted government ministers who called Kerry “negligent,” “lacking the ability to understand” the issues, and “incapable of handling the most basic matters,” the Times of Israel reported.

The Haaretz correspondent described Friday’s press conference with U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and the Egyptian foreign minister as “one of Kerry’s most embarrassing incidents since taking office. And there were quite a few in the last year and a half.”

 :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Which is exactly what the US' adversaries around the world are doing to the US.

If you need an example for why @JohnKerry's handling of the Gaza ceasefire is so poor: he managed to turn me yesterday into a Bibi supporter
7:38 AM - 26 Jul 2014

'He managed to turn me yesterday into a Bibi supporter.'  Even using the nickname for Netanyahu . . . That has to leave a mark.

Sounds pretty much on the money right there.

For all W's fault's, especially in his second term, we definitely dodged a bullet in 2004.

Those sources didn't add, "as usual"? I seriously think it possible that one of Kerry's assigned purposes was to halt Israel's destruction of Hamas's weapons, tunnels, and leadership.

Looks like Obama's campaign to destroy our enemies' respect for the US has had unintended consequences ... our allies no longer respect the US either. It would amuse me considerably, if I didn't know how painful rebuilding that respect will be. I seriously believe it will cost American blood, possibly a lot. Where, I don't know, I just fear it.

I think Slow Joe and Lurch are both vying for Obama Administration's Chump of the Term.  :whatever:

When it comes to terrorist organizations/states, Obama and his State department are a puzzle. 

It makes me believe that some very scary people are in our government.

Not just the wacko Marxist elites. I think the Muslim Brotherhood is pulling a lot of strings in Obama's foreign policy decisions.

At least that would explain why they've made so many boneheaded decisions that are contrary to what we would have expected.

Valrie Garrett born in Iran and is a Muslim sympathizer pulls Obama's strings.

I've often wondered if they know something about Obama and he's being blackmailed.
