Fox News: Krauthammer: Kerry is undermining Israeli-Gaza peace talks (July 28)http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...erry-is-undermining-israeli-gaza-peace-talks/http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...erry-is-undermining-israeli-gaza-peace-talks/

Charles Krauthammer said Monday on "Special Report with Bret Baier" that Secretary of State John Kerry meddled in the Israeli-Gaza conflict by showing up uninvited to the latest cease fire negotiations.

Krauthammer, a syndicated columnist and a Fox News contributor, said Kerry has caused "wreckage" by intervening.

“The Israelis did not invite him," he said. "The Egyptians did not want him and he still says he advanced a peace plan that was sort of building on the Egyptian one. It didn’t at all. It undermined it.”

Kerry spent Saturday in Paris meeting with several European diplomats and the foreign ministers of Qatar and Turkey, who are negotiating on behalf of Hamas, hoping to establish an immediate cease fire in the ongoing conflict.

Krauthammer said Kerry returned from the negotiations as essentially Hamas’ lawyer, and the plan Kerry supported “would have given Hamas all of its demands.”

"(Kerry) hands Israel a proposition that is so outrageous that the cabinet votes 19-0 against it," he said. "Israeli cabinets have never voted 19-0 on whether the sun rises in the east. It was unbelievable."

Somehow I missed this earlier in the week, and an advanced search of the board's posts tells me no one else has posted it, either. This is an unconscionable imposition of will on peace talks that, without Kerry's meddling, might have come to some fruition, given Hamas depends not just on Iran's support, but some passing hand-wave of "whatever" from other Arab countries as well. It's a shame this hasn't been played up more than it has. I know Kerry's not the brightest bulb in the lamp, but this destruction of the Arab peace plan is nearly treasonous.
