Jacob Magid is The Times of Israel's US bureau chief
After the US Office for Palestinian Affairs issued a condemnation of Israel’s demolition of the family home of a 13-year-old Palestinian who killed a Border Police officer, the Israeli embassy in Washington responds.
“Context is helpful: the “13-year-old” is a terrorist who murdered an Israeli citizen by stabbing him to death,” the embassy tweets.
