Israeli official says US condemnation is premature

An Israeli official tells The Times of Israel that Kerry’s remarks seem premature, considering the US government’s wait-and-see approach regarding the abduction and killing of three Israeli teens.

“How does he know it is an act of vengeance? If it is, obviously the strong condemnation is more than justified. But apparently waiting for information, waiting for evidence from intelligence or police investigation is only required when the victim is Israeli.”
