The top U.S. diplomat defied a Federal Aviation Administration ban and flew into Israel's main airport Wednesday in a sign of sheer will to achieve a cease-fire agreement in the warring Gaza Strip despite little evidence of progress in ongoing negotiations. Yeah right. Maybe he is there to help his buddies in Hamas, before they are wiped out. Do you think he will say, if you like your rockets, you can keep your rockets?

From the excerpt posted above:

"The top U.S. diplomat defied a Federal Aviation Administration ban and flew into Israel's main airport Wednesday in a sign of sheer will hubris ... "
There, fixed it.
And AP also made the error in their title:
"John Kerry Files (sic) to Tel Aviv Despite FAA Ban"
... probably because they were thinking about the missing IRS email files scratched hard drive.

He undoubtedly flew on a US Air Force aircraft that in no way would be subject to FAA policies as it is not a commercial carrier. Are the journalists in this country really this stupid?

THE POTUS initiated this ban in order to punish Israel. That is how Barakah Hussein and Big John do things with our allies. I heard Egypt humiliated Big John yesterday in Cairo by having him body checked by a metal detector BEFORE meeting with Sisi. Talk about humiliation!!
Egypt is pissed at Washington for supporting the MB. Israel is pissed at Washington for supporting the MB/HAMAS. Talk about EPIC Foreign Policy fail... comedy of errors!

Obama/Kerry will make the decision which most advantages the terrorists and hurts US and other stable governments.

Kerry sure knows how to prove the FAA has it’s head firmly implanted. For once, he may have actually been useful.

Initially as I read this generated from the captain of the Delta flt which turned around over the med after learning the reports of the missile strike. The FAA which is always slow to ring the bell responded later. Once the Delta pilot returned to Europe it was game on for restrictions. Airlines start worrying about liability IF something happened. As far as Lurch is concerned, I would make a solid bet (other than US Gov aircraft are excluded), that his aircraft has some missile warning and countermeasures. Lurch has not had any failed diplomacy for a couple hours, so he needed to achieve more failures..

This reads like it is from parody site like The Onion rather than a news site. Maybe that is what has become of American journalism; it has become a parody.

I don’t mind that he went. What bothers me is that he plans to come back.
