Coates letter: Kerry and Israel

Please, give me a break. For U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry — who gave a blatant anti-Israel speech at the State Department after the U.N. abstention vote backstab — to claim there’s no greater friend and ally for Israel than the Obama administration is like the philandering, cheating husband telling his long-suffering wife, “What are you complaining about? I always come back and sleep with you every night, don’t I?”
