Ill informed

US Secretary of State John Kerry is an idiot and a remarkably ill informed one at that, “Jerusalem furious over US bombshell at UN,” December 25.

Kerry’s remarks after the vote at the United Nations Security Council that Israel’s unprecedented activities in Judea and Samaria have spawned terrorism and violence in the region are false.

Two things create terrorism: leaders who encourage and incite their followers to commit acts of terrorism, and a lack of constructive, decent impartial leadership in the world. Today we have both! President Barack Obama and Kerry, through their inept, incompetent, spineless leadership and incoherent policies, have done more to encourage terrorism over the past eight years than one could ever have believed possible.

And they continue to blame their inadequacies on Israel – the only true democracy in the Middle East.

The Obama-Kerry foreign policy legacy will be the hundreds of thousand of deaths, the untold numbered of wounded and the colossal destruction – all by terrorism – that has taken place around the world under their hapless watch. Shame on them! Let us pray: “Obama and Kerry I thee implore go from here and sin no more, But if that effort be too great Go from here at any rate.” Indeed thank God they will be gone in less than a month!
