Instead of focusing on the people trying to kill us in the Middle East the administration is insulting our ally Israel

Bridget Johnson:

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus just issued a statement firing back at a senior administration official calling Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “chickenshit” in an interview with The Atlantic.

“ISIS is on a rampage through the Middle East, slaughtering innocents and committing mass murder while plotting to kill more Americans,” Priebus said. “The priority of the Obama administration should be defeating our enemies; instead they are once again insulting our allies. It’s inexplicable and dangerous.”

“This administration consistently gets it wrong on foreign policy. Instead of taking the ISIS threat seriously, President Obama called them the ‘JV’ team. Now, instead of working with our allies in the region to protect democracy and innocent lives, the administration is hurling expletives at Prime Minister Netanyahu.”

One week out of Election Day, in a midterm where foreign policy has gotten more air time than in previously years, the RNC chairman stressed, “Americans should not accept this.”

“We should never betray our ally Israel. We need a foreign policy that is focused, not fumbling. The country is increasingly concerned about our national security, yet the administration is not inspiring confidence,” Priebus said.

This administration has a history of ineptitude when it comes to negotiating in general and the use of insults because their objective has been rejected shows immaturity on their part.  But we have seen similar attitudes toward Republicans who disagree with Obama.  The administration can't seem to cut a deal with Iraq, Afghanistan yet seems desperate to cut a deal with Iran.  Perhaps that is why it has been tagged with the slogan "No better enemy, Now worse friend."
