US ambassador pays condolence visit in settlement, tweets video of him on guitar

US Ambassador David Friedman has visited the settlement of Tekoa to pay a condolence call to the family of Ori Ansbacher, killed by a suspected Palestinian terrorist last week.

Friedman tells the family that while he is not normally at a loss for things to say, he has no words other than to express his sadness, according to the Kan public broadcaster.

Just before his visit, his Twitter account had what to say, posting a video of him and former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee playing Lynyrd Skynyrd at an event in Jerusalem Tuesday night.

I got a lot of requests in response to my tweet last night for a video of my performance with Gov Huckabee and his band. Here’s a clip of one of the songs we played – hope you enjoy! pic.twitter.com/3c0F2whQV3
