The press conference U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry convened together with UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shukry was one of Kerry's most embarrassing incidents since taking office. And there were quite a few in the last year and a half.

Really getting tired of Israel insulting the United States: "How would you feel if terrorists attacked your country!?!?" What short memories the Israelis seem to have regarding their only friend in the world. What do they think we've been doing for the last 13 years? I guarantee more Americans have died during this period as a result of either direct terrorist attacks (9/11) or indirectly as a result of the wars that followed than have Israelis. And how do they respond to a rational US ceasefire proposal to end this latest Children's Crusade of internecine, bloody nonsense? That potato-faced sociopath Netanyahu has one of his ministers call our Secretary of State a terrorist. How offensive of the Israelis to dare question America's understanding of terrorism, for we have suffered plenty for over a decade. We need no reminders from anyone regarding the threat posed by Islamic fanatics. I REALLY wish more US journalists and politicians alike would call-out the Israeli government for so callously insulting the American people.
