Israel furious at Hillary Clinton's concern for democracy in country

Israeli government ministers have reacted with fury to comments made by Hillary Clinton expressing her concern for the state of democracy in Israel and the status of Israeli women.

The US Secretary of State reportedly criticised legislation proposed by Benjamin Netanyahu's government that would curb funding from international bodies to organisations working to promote human rights withn Israel.

She told the audience of US and Israeli officials on Saturday of her shock on hearing reports of gender segregation on buses operating in Jerusalem, which she claimed was "reminiscent of Rosa Parks", the African American woman who refused to give up her seat on to white passengers on a bus in 1950s America.

Mrs Clinton went on to claim that recent incidents of gender discrimination against female Israeli soldiers reminded her of the situation facing women in Iran.

I think you have nailed it. It will look like some sort of Apartheid by the time the media are done with it, and just look what the ANC has done with South Africa...

Glenn Beck Debunked Hillary very effectively tonight on his show, he showed all the things women cannot do in other middle east countries compared to what they can do in Israel.

Are you sure it was Cankles speaking out and not Ol' Crusty, her pant suit ? I suspect it can be difficult to discern between the squelch of a harpy screeching, "Fu**ing Jew B@$t@rd$" and the stench of rotting fish mixed with urine.

This would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic. You don't hear her running her mouth to all the Muslim nations that kill off their women for "bringing dishonor" to the family, which can mean anything from talking back to their men folk or daring to love a non-muslim.

What hypocrisy, it boggles the mind.

Orwellian.

She uses front names of human rights which are housed with lawyers persecuting and predating on anything free or descent. Bunch of gangsters.

She is a favoritist coward and is not an independent woman of chuzpa.
There is not a single narcissist she is not with, from Billy her man to Obama who persecuted her but who she now serves like a
prostitute.

It’s the old racist and antisemitic gang of white trash
who encourage blacks to favor each others in like manners etc...

Jews should stay away from goyimizing parties and democrates.

Some of them are leaders or could almost be called foundefs of the party or other movements, but it is no matter, as their money has now been opted for their destructions by false prophets and false friends. A case in point is the black civil rights movement which was started by jews in good conscious and resuted in antisemitic riots by blacks in NYC.

Blood of Christ will be accounted for those who forget or
contribute to persecutions of Jews by the weak pharohs of the world.

When Jews separate themselves or criticize unfairly Israel, it’s like asking for trouble in the diaspora. Everyone is a nation.
