Kerry: Israel will become 'apartheid state' if no deal
Oh no!!!!!! He used the assault rifle of vocabulary!1!1! Thus, my dears, it is once again demonstrated that the American Secretary of State, the honourable John F. Kerry is, as always, The Second Smartest Man In The Room. |
The secretary of state said that if Israel doesn't make peace soon, it could become 'an apartheid state,' like the old South Africa. Jewish leaders are fuming over the comparison.
If there's no two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict soon, Israel risks becoming "an apartheid state," Secretary of State John Kerry told a room of influential world leaders in a closed-door meeting Friday.
He said this on Holocaust Remembrance Day... | Senior American officials have rarely, if ever, used the term "apartheid" in reference to Israel, and President Obama has previously rejected the idea that the word should apply to the Jewish state. Kerry's use of the loaded term is already rankling Jewish leaders in America--and it could attract unwanted attention in Israel, as well.
