Fire him. State Dept. demonstrates again its incompetence and divorce from reality. No diplomacy, lack of demonstrated knowledge/skills/abilities, and undermining its stated mission, "To protect and promote U.S. security, prosperity, and democratic values and shape an international environment in which all Americans can thrive."

The US mission used to include the 'international community'. Not any more.

The Kerry State Dept. mission, "Create a more secure, democratic, and prosperous world for the benefit of the American people and the international community."

They are basically lying sacks of shit. No wonder even Israelis are upset with lack of trying to get hostages back viz. from 8th October Hamas has been willing to trade hostages...that is what the whole mission was about.

The US State Department, like the US mainstream press, are so dedicated to promoting Israel that they routinely conceal or minimize topics that reflect poorly on Israel even though they are widely covered in the Israeli press, even with its military censorship. The Hannibal Directive is one such topic.

Curious here. What % of Israelis are Semites as defined originally by language?
