Ya'alon criticized for reportedly calling Kerry 'obsessive, messianic'
The office of Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon on Tuesday would neither confirm nor deny comments attributed to him calling US Secretary of State John Kerry "obsessive" and "messianic."
He also neither confirmed nor denied comments calling Kerry "moronic", "doofus", "idiot" and "lame-brained"...
Tuesday editions of the daily tabloid Yedioth Ahronoth quote Ya'alon as telling associates in private conversations that Kerry "should take his Nobel Prize and leave us alone."
"Abu Mazen lives and dies by our sword," Ya'alon is quoted as saying by Yedioth. "Once we leave Judea and Samaria, he is finished. In effect, during these past months, there haven't been negotiations with the Palestinians, but with the Americans."
"The only thing that can 'save' us is for John Kerry to win his Nobel Prize and leave us alone," the defense minister reportedly said.
