John Kerry urged to cancel Mideast peace speech
New York Post ^ | December 28, 2016 | By Daniel Halper

A key Democratic leader on Capitol Hill is calling on Secretary of State John Kerry to cancel his Middle East peace speech scheduled for Wednesday — coming days after the US allowed an anti-Israel resolution to pass the United Nations.

Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.), the Democratic whip in the House of Representatives and the second- highest ranking Democrat in leadership, released a blistering statement Tuesday night calling on the Obama administration to cool it.

“Now, it is my understanding that Secretary Kerry, in the last few days of this Administration, intends to outline the parameters of an agreement between Israel and the Palestinian Authority. This flies in the face of the United States’s longstanding position that such a formulation should be reached only through negotiations by the parties and not by the United States, the United Nations, or any other third party,” Hoyer said.

“I urge Secretary Kerry and the Administration not to set forth a formula, which will inevitably disadvantage Israel in any negotiation,” Hoyer added.

“I bet it costs them 2-3% of their liberal Jewish support.”

In a rational world,these last-minute attacks by Obama and the Democrats against Israel and Judaism SHOULD cost the Dems 95% of the total Jewish vote.

As a state, every terrorist act they commit would be an act of war.

This move will cost Dems more in the coming elections. Will leave a lasting impression here in US. In Israel? They know this will change under Trump, but serious damage is done.

FUBO! And the ComDems.

I knew many of these loser leftists while I was in college. I ridiculed them, until they ran the country.

I too was acquainted with many loser leftists while I was in college, but I never stopped ridiculing them, and in fact I have intensified that ridicule over the years as they’ve gotten ever more ignorant and belligerent.

It is a testament to how low we have come when an ill-educated, lying, treasonous idiot who lied about virtually everyone he has done could become a senator (lower Slovobian for “complete idiot”), and become Secretary of State.

Although, given that the State Department is a work program for college grads who have never had a real job creating anything (and never will), perhaps he is a perfect fit.

Trump, get rid of the slime.

By whatever means you choose.

Well and truly said.

The ‘catch’ is that in the agreement, Israel must accept all of the Palestinians demands.
