Krauthammer: Admin Won’t Apologize for ‘Chickensh*t’ Remark Because Obama Supports it

"There is no doubt that what we saw is an accurate reflection of what they think. That’s the reason they won’t offer an apology. Everybody knows it’s how the president thinks about the Israeli leadership under Likud, under Bibi. So we know that there's sort of veracity underlying it. You're not supposed to say it. You're supposed to deny it when of course it becomes published. But this is the tension between them. This is the worst of the relations between administrations, Israeli and American probably in 50 years …

The larger issue here is that Obama’s relations, American relations with all the major powers are at the lowest ebb in a very — relations with Russia, as you mentioned with Turkey, with the Gulf states. Saudi Arabia refused to sit on the Security Council - first time that has ever happened in the history of the U.N. because it was so angry at the United States over the way it negotiated over its head with Iran and has been shutting it up. The Gulf states are unbelievably upset with us. Egypt has been flirting with Russia and China because it is so upset with the U.S.. The foreign policy of the U.S. -- no matter if you’re a man of the left or man of the right -- however you see this, is at its lowest ebb with the president who promised to improve relations, they are at their low ebb everywhere. This is a measure of his incompetence."
