White House's 'Condolences' for Murdered Israeli Teens Will not be Enough
Breitbart ^ | 06.30.14 | Dr. Phyllis Chesler

Posted on 06/30/2014 2:01:29 PM PDT by SJackson

My heart is broken, absolutely broken. Words never fail me but at this moment, only words feel inadequate, even inappropriate. I am, of course, talking about the discovery of three dead bodies which once belonged to three beautiful Israeli souls: Gilad Shaar, Naftali Frenkel, and Eyal Yifrach.

This is a time for tears but also a time for some very serious decisions. Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu has confirmed that “Hamas is responsible, and Hamas will pay. He added that the teenagers were “kidnapped and murdered in cold blood by wild beasts.”

The French foreign Minister, Laurent Fabius, is “deeply shocked and upset” by the murder of these boys. He also expressed “horror” and indignation.”

President Obama expressed his "deepest condolences" to the family of the slain teenagers. He added: “I also urge all parties to refrain from steps that could further destabilize the situation.” President Obama did not accuse Hamas of this despicable act nor did he say our government would assist Israel in its search for security and justice.

White House spokesman, Josh Earnest, said: "We obviously condemn in the strongest possible terms violence that takes the lives of innocent civilians."

In a statement, Israel’s Shin Bet security service identified the men as Marwan Qawasmeh and Amer Abu Aisheh. It said both men are activists from the Hamas militant group in the West Bank city of Hebron, near where the youths disappeared on June 12.

I know, but it's not really important who did the murders. I'm sure Mossad knows who did it and will take care of them. It's a good excuse for Israel to bomb the $hit out of Hamas.

Find them. Catch them. Pump them for names. Kill them. Dump them. Reciprocity is justice.

I, for one, am sick to death of this president ALWAYS chastising and warning and advising Israel!

Pompous ass.

He never does the same to the other side.
