Kerry caught on hot mic seemingly slamming Israel’s Gaza op
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleUS Secretary of State John Kerry was caught on an open mic talking about Israel’s Operation Protective Edge prior to an interview with Fox News today, in comments that are being described as critical.
“‘It’s a hell of a pinpoint operation, it’s a hell of a pinpoint operation,’ Kerry says to an aide on the phone, with some measure of frustration,” Politico reports.
“We’ve got to get over there…we ought to go tonight. I think it’s crazy to be sitting around,” he says.
The comments, says Politico, seemed to be criticizing Israel’s “assurances about the limited scope of its attack and ground invasion of Gaza.”
