The following is a statement from John Kerry on the recent developments in Eretz Yisroel:
The United States condemns in the strongest possible terms today’s attack, which led to the killing of two Israeli soldiers and the apparent abduction of another. It was an outrageous violation of the ceasefire negotiated over the past several days, and of the assurances given to the United States and the United Nations.”
“Hamas, which has security control over the Gaza Strip, must immediately and unconditionally release the missing Israeli soldier, and I call on those with influence over Hamas to reinforce this message.
“After the horrific loss of life in this attack and its aftermath, it would be a tragedy if this outrageous attack leads to more suffering and loss of life on both sides of this conflict. I have been in close touch with Prime Minister Netanyahu, with UN Special Coordinator Robert Serry and with other regional partners. The international community must now redouble its efforts to end the tunnel and rocket attacks by Hamas terrorists on Israel and the suffering and loss of civilian life.

He is a real politician. Condemn the kidnapping of a soldier but this whole entire operation trying to turn Israel into a tool, The United States recognizes Hamas as a terrorist organization….I’m so confused with the Obama administration.
Kerry is more EVIL than I originaly thought! He is a very dangerous man!
Ketchup face
What would be “tragic” is if anyone EVER believes any ceasefire attempt by you again…yours or Ban’s.
There will be much more loss of life because that is the goal of evil to perpetuate evil deeds.
Instead, all peoples who believe in the good and in truth, should realize that the answer to repeated evil is to eradicate it swiftly and with as little damage to the forces of good as possible. Truth DEMANDS that one distinguish between good and evil.
Use of suicide bombers puts them in the same class as Kamakazi pilots and there is a proper military answer to those who have an inhuman ideology that does not value the human life.
