ISRAELI DEP.FM ZE’EV ELKIN: ”KERRY MAKING IT EASIER FOR INT’L COMMUNITY TO PRESSURE ISRAEL, NOT PALESTINIANS”…….

 

And remember, the traitorous Lurch was Obama’s top pick for the sec-state spot.

It’s more than obvious that Obama and all the political hacks he has running his administration have no sense of kinship with the Jewish state of Israel, in fact, it’s the Muslim Brotherhood that they would rather rub elbows with. That’s the price you pay for not thinking with your head, choosing rather ”to make history” twice, with a Marxist radical.

Various Israeli officials criticized on Sunday morning US Secretary of State John Kerry for saying it was a mistake in the diplomatic process for Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to insists the Palestinians make a public declaration of Israel’s Jewish character.

On Thursday, Kerry told members of Congress that international law already defined Israel as a Jewish state, and called Netanyahu’s continued call for a public declaration of Israel’s Jewish character from the Palestinians “a mistake.”

Communications minister Gilad Erdan told Israel Radio that it was unfortunate that the top US diplomat made the comments ahead of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s arrival to Washington on Monday.

Erdan charged that Kerry had erred in marking the statements and said they put pressure on the wrong side.

Meanwhile, Deputy Foreign Minister Ze’ev Elkin told the radio station that Kerry’s remarks represented a pattern that had developed over the past 20 year, in which the international community finds it easier to pressure Israel rather than the Palestinians, despite who it believes is in the right.
