John Kerry backs away from Israel ´apartheid´ comment after he is hit by furious backlash - but
The Daily Mail ^ | 4/29/14 | Associated Press, by Staff

Posted on 04/29/2014 7:19:04 AM PDT by Nachum

Secretary of State John Kerry has said he chose the wrong word in describing Israel´s potential future after being criticised for saying the Jewish state could become an ´apartheid state´ if it does not reach a peace deal with the Palestinians. In a statement released yesterday by the State Department, Kerry lashed out against ´partisan political´ attacks against him, but acknowledged his comments last week to a closed international forum could have been misinterpreted. He pointedly did not apologize for the remarks, but stressed he was, and is, a strong supporter of Israel, which he called a ´vibrant democracy.´

Just another super rich Democrat who thinks that he is above everyone and his words don’t matter.
We just don’t understand his intellect.

When I think of Kerry, "French" isn't the first word that comes to mind.

On the other hand, he's good for one thing: I thank him for making me feel good about voting for G.W. Bush.

I can't imagine that freak show being POTUS...not that obama is any better than he would have been.

It’s better for one to remain silent and have everyone think them a fool than to open one’s mouth and remove all doubt.

Now Ynet has Erekat saying “Israel chose apartheid over peace.” Thanks, Lurch.

Make that: Just another Democrat who is married to someone super-rich, and who like all his ilk thinks he is above everyone else...

Don’t blame Kerry, he is just exposing the anti-Jew policies of president Obama that are enabling another Holocaust.

American Jews share on the blame; most of them voted for Obama and always vote for Democrats as zombies in spite that FDR closed the doors of United States to the Jews who tried to flee from Nazi occupied Europe during the Holocaust. Remember the SS Saint Louis!!!

That is the way the Devil pays those who serve him well.

Why American Jews Vote So Liberal & Why They Shouldn’t “
israelmuse ^ | September 4, 2010

By Dr. Norman Berdichevsky:

Jewish Liberalism is an inherited disease, it is not incurable

Time and time again, I read in websites and blogs around the internet the question and puzzling paradox posed by Gentiles who strongly support Israel, how can it be that so many Jews continue to blindly vote for ultra-liberal causes that are inherently ultra-critical of Israel and even subliminally of Jews...

The rest of the history...

The US does not negotiate with terrorists. Why would we expect Israel to?

John F’n Kerry says he made his money the easy way, he married into it twice, not like those Jews who emigrated to Israel and busted their butts to turn swamp and desert land into an agricultural paradise as well as turning out many of the greatest engineers and scientists in the last hundred years, only to be spit upon and murdered by Muslim Arabs who did nothing productive with the land over hundreds of years. What a despicable character.

John Effing Kerry (He served in Vietnam, you know!) is living proof that the “Peter Principle” is in play in the Ophonybama administration! He outlived his competency when he was promoted to Ltjg in the Navy! Much less US Senator [SHAME ON YOU MASSACHUSETTS VOTERS!] and SECSTATE! [SHAME ON YOU OPHONYBAMA — BUT I DIGRESS, YOU (Ophonybama) HAVE NO SHAME!]

Kerry is a miserable, sleazy sonofabitch who has LIED and bullsh!tted his way into two multi-millionaire marriages and a most undistinguished Senate/State Department career that has severely damaged the USA!

Every day he serves as SECSTATE is a disgrace and a profound embarrassment to the USA!

That he LIES is a given!

That he will not resign is a given! [Democrats do not resign!]

So, it is up to We the People to make life so difficult for Johh Effing Kerry (He served in Vietnam, you know!) that he is hounded out of office, preferably, tarred and feathered!

Why was apartheid bad in South Africa, but is good in Israel?

Why do people buy the crap of Israeli-haters who created the BDS movement and use all their propaganda?

Why was apartheid bad in South Africa, but is good in Israel?...In SA the blacks had no representation in government, no say in the major hubs of commerce and no real say in their lives, employment or everyday life. The Isreali government includes Islamics of all stripes in their government. Once SA became “unapartheid” it turned into a horrendous shithole that gives none of it’s citizens rights, security or a way to improve themselves. The highest murder, robbery and rape rates in the WORLD (maybe outdone by Detroit for the same reasons).
