Kerry is still “making friends and trying to influence people,” I see.

What an embarrassment.

“I’m sorry Secretary Kerry...there seems to be a problem with your passport. Please, I ask that you wait in this room until we have it resolved.”

“Guard...err...Sergeant...please escort Mr. Kerry to the...err...guest room.”

“Do not worry Mr. Secretary. We’ll have this worked out in no time.”

So if he gets wounded, it will be Kosher this time. How did we get to the point where we have blithering idiots running the asylum. We are a lost people on a death spiral with eternity.

They just want the Egyptians because they are looking for someone who isn’t blatantly pro Hamas.

It’s not on Israel, this time! Kerry is going to have to deal with EGYPT and they are not friendly to those who tried to get the Muslim Brotherhood in there to take over Egypt. Obama and Kerry’s goose is COOKED for that reason - with Egypt!

Arab rifts may complicate search for Gaza truce [Israel and Hamas]

DOHA/CAIRO (Reuters) - The push for a Gaza ceasefire risks becoming mired in a regional tussle for influence between conservative Arab states and Islamist-friendly governments, with rival powers competing to take credit for a truce, analysts and some officials say.

The main protagonists are Arab heavyweight Egypt and the tiny Gulf state of Qatar, on opposite sides of a regional standoff over Hamas, the Islamist group that controls the Gaza Strip, and its ideological patron the Muslim Brotherhood.

Both camps suggest the other is motivated as much by a desire to polish diplomatic prestige and crush political adversaries as by the humanitarian goal of protecting Palestinian lives from the Israeli military.

“Gaza has turned very suddenly into the theater in which this new alignment within the Arab world is being expressed,” said UK-based analyst Ghanem Nusseibeh.

“Gaza is the first test for these new alliances, and this has affected the possibility of reaching a ceasefire there.”

He was referring to Qatar, Turkey, Sudan and non-Arab Iran, the main members of a loose grouping of states which believe Islamists represent the future of Middle East politics.

That camp stands in increasingly overt competition with a conservative, pro-Western group led by Egypt, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, most of whom are intent on crushing the Brotherhood and see it as a threat.

That cleavage is now apparent in the diplomacy over Gaza.

— — —

This was the “new alignment” in the Middle East spoken about in a previous article from Israel, posted a few days ago! Now Gaza and Hamas is the fulcrum in the middle of this test of wills between these two major blocks. Israel has aligned itself with the Egyptian side, because both Israel and Egypt have the common goal of crushing Hamas, while the other side wants to save Hamas!

Never before has one man traveled so many mils, spoken so many words and accomplished so very little. also there is something very peculiar about a man who insists on posing boarding and disembarking his jet wherever he goes.

"In a notably critical interview, Michael Oren emphasizes that Israel would prefer Egyptian, not American, mediation."

This is really a 'when pigs fly moment' of something you'd never expect to see in your lifetime.

The White House said Kerry would seek “an immediate cessation of hostilities based on a return to the November 2012 ceasefire agreement and a return to pre-1967 borders.”

lol.

Kerry is annoying. How far we've come in only a few years that Israel prefers Egyptian support to American.
