31. Americans are fuming over obama
(07.29.14)
they voted for a loser twice and now feel regrets by the truck load. I guess ohamas best revenge is his ohamas 'health care' that makes US sick to death. Impeachment? Stroke? Heart attack? Which poison will he opt for to save face or his office for the next 2 plus years? Or, will it be up to him afteB the mid term elections?
32. I agree
Zev ,   Israel   (07.29.14)
'It's simply not the way partners and allies treat each other,' If the U.S. is a friend and ally why are they supporting Hamas.
33. Americans are fuming over OHAMAS
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (07.29.14)
worst US President ever. IMPEACHMENT or... RESIGNATION??
34. Jews and Obama
Ephraim ,   Jerusalem   (07.29.14)
Thanks to all our brother and sister Jews in America for helping to bring these incompetent people to power. Obama couldn't manage a little league baseball team. As for Kerry, this is payback for his ego after his failed "peace process". After a thousand years, Kerry the egomaniac thought he could make peace here, and he is angry we did not bow down to him. These two are very dangerous when you combine their incompetence with their arrogance. We pray for you America, and hope in 2016 you elect a president that won't destroy both our countries.
35. Tsk tsk.He is a friend of our best friend !
Roland ,   london England   (07.29.14)
Jonathan Pollard,the weakest link in the chain, is the unbreakable bond of friendship that his boss has shown but still has not found time to deal with.

37. ???
Allan ,   USA   (07.29.14)
Very soon you will be crying for the American Vito when the list of the war criminals is complete. What a punch of hypocrites who don't appreciate others favors. Israel doesn't exist without American help in particular and the West in general (and Arab dictators who sold Palestine).
38. Give me a break!!
Kim Moore ,   Birmingham USA   (07.29.14)
Kerry is upset about Israel's response to the cease fire proposal? If the US government keeps saying that they are allies with Israel then let them show it through their actions!! It is so obvious that Kerry and Obama are pro Muslim and pro hamas! They are anti Semitic. And if this is what the US calls allies then who needs allies like them! I'm embarrassed of the US leaders. I support Israel 100 percent!!
39. Re: not the way to treat a friend
David   (07.29.14)
This is the definition of chutzpah. An ally does not "demand" that its partner stop fighting its enemies, and accept a surrender when it is winning-- an ally imposes terms of surrender on the enemy, not on its friend. We all know this-- it is a matter of basic human decency-- but Ms. Psaki ignores it out of the same contempt for us that lead to the offensive conduct by Kerry and Obama in the first instance. And of course the Israeli government tries to downplay the hostility, because Israel needs and cherishes American friendship. The truth is clear. Israel is a friend of the United States, and deeply requires and desires the alliance, cooperation, and friendship. The administration is contemptuous of Israel, and willing even to blame Israel for earning their contempt. This is a familiar pattern from the Obama administration-- dating back to the orchestrated diplomatic eruption that happened in 2010 when Biden took "offense" at Israel's construction in Jerusalem during his trip, and everyone from the White House press secretary to David Petraeus was enlisted in a media campaign against the Jewish state. The relationship survived without Israeli capitulation then-- and hopefully it will continue to survive without capitulation.
40. Obama is angry? Maybe he should play golf all the time
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (07.29.14)
41. If Israel has no better friend than Kerry,we are in trouble
(07.29.14)
42. Kerry and Obama
Moshe ,   Montevideo, Uruguay   (07.29.14)
2 silly boys, if we depend on them, forget our future. They are stupid and naive, we cannot trust them. Kerry can act in Nude Pistol 3
43. obama administration a failure
bernhard ,   germany-israel   (07.29.14)
This man and his aides have no idea where are their true allies. Messing around in the geopolitical arena without a clear concept and not even a minimum of overview is dangerous for the U.S. as well their real allies which whom they share the same values. Not with Hamas, the Wahabites and other awkward political-religious constructions. Even Putin is more close than the stone-age Saudis or the terror Mullah regime of Iran. But our "friend" Hussein don't know what to do. Helpless and desperate. Pure disappointment
44. Jen Psaki
Birdi ,   Israel   (07.29.14)
Take a hike & dont send Kerry back here.
45. No critic allowed?
tiki ,   belgium   (07.29.14)
What happened to ''free speech? The world, including Obama/Kerry are not doing anything else. Criticizing Israel is what makes the world go round, it's the oil of the political machinery, the moneymaker for newspapers & booksellers, the job guarantee for journalists, the life saver for terrorist leaders, the talk of the day for UN/EU imbecils etc.etc., but that's of course a different story. I haven't heard any fierce critic or seen the abominable behaviour against Palestinian non elected, (ex?) terrorist, president Abbas as is reserved for the PM of Israel. The critics should shut up and lower their heads in shame. When critic is due, Israel will give it, like Americans & others do. If you can't stand the heat stay out of the kitchen!
46. and Israel is fuming
(07.29.14)
because Obama helped Hamas murder 5 Israelis
47. Kerry
CJK   (07.29.14)
kerry manages to be arrogant, sanctimonious, ignorant and stupid all at the same time. he is not fit for the office he holds.
48. F*ck off, noboby believes the USA's
PaulD ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (07.29.14)
excuses for Kerry's continued acts of empowering Arabs and weakening Israel. Sorry, Israel does not want your 2-state genocide plan. Since the US loves immigrants, instead of Mexicans, why don't you extend your loving deceitful arms to Hamas.
49. We've got a war going on + Kerry's ego is hurt ?
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (07.29.14)
Perspectives, people - really.
50. kerry doesn't handle rejection very well
zionist forever   (07.29.14)
Poor old Kerry he doesn't handle rejection very well. He presented a pro Hamas ceasefire plan and was criticised over it and now it looks like we have hurt his feelings by rejecting it. The US has a president that just wants everybody to love him and a very sensitive secretary of state.
51. Question 4 Kerry
yoni   (07.29.14)
How's your day, Kerry? POOF!
52. Re new Kerry comments in updates -
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (07.29.14)
methinks he is complaining to much about himself and not interested in the matter at hand. As I said before, the man's ego is gigantic. A real blowhard.
