Communications Minister Gilad Erdan harshly criticized US Secretary of State John Kerry on Monday, accusing Kerry of not being a fair intermediary in the peace talks with the Palestinian Authority (PA). […]

“Currently, threats are still heard against citizens of Israel and they try to terrorize us. When we hear John Kerry and the American State Department, we think they are wrong in their analysis of what’s happening in the Middle East,” emphasized Erdan.

“It would be expected from someone who’s supposed to be a fair and objective intermediary to also tell the Palestinian side about the price they will have to pay over their stubborn refusal to recognize the right of the Jewish people to their own nation state,” remarked Erdan. “Where’s the Palestinian price on all the continued incitement against Israel’s existence?”

Obama, Kerry and their ilk despise Israel. Bias is their thing.

You are correct, Minister Erdan. He’s also an idiot.

He called Kerry “biased”.

I do not think that is particularly harsh.

I’m sure he wanted to call him a LOT worse - I know I do.

That is the best - most accurate and succinct - appraisal of the obama administration’s mid-east “foreign policy” and the situation it has created. I put foreign policy in quotes because I honestly don’t know if they are as naive, stupid, and inept as they appear or if they are trying to make things worse. Some of both I suspect.

Kerry is an incompetent, Jew hating anti-Semite, with the mental capability of a rock. He’s a gigolo that happened to serve in Vietnam on the communist side.
