“We have also seen reports from Israel describing it as the most right-wing coalition in Israel’s history and we also know that many of its ministers have said they oppose a two-state solution,” State Department spokesman Mark Toner told reporters. “This raises legitimate questions about the direction it may be headed in … and what kind of policies it may adopt.”
The state dept should stop butting into Israel’s internal govt. affairs (should Bibi comment on who he believes should be president of the US?) and instead focus on the fact that Hilary was implicated today for violating govt. procedure in her email scandal!
What chutzpah! So the US will decide if the Israeli coalition is legitimate or not. Time for Israel to tell the US that their Muslim President is anything but legitimate – in all aspects…
Which are basically none of the US State Department’s business. That’s the whole problem in a nutshell.
Abbas was supposed to call for elections years ago, but i don’t hear them questioning his legitimacy.
It has long been the policy of the state dept to side with the arabs because of their oil. Because the arabs can do other things with their oil… They can make Havdala with their oil…
Israel is an american state and we are still in golus just to remind you
Israel should immediately suspend all foreign aid to America!
