McCain Blasts Obama on Israel: ‘Get over Your Temper Tantrum’

‘The least of your problems is what Bibi Netanyahu said during a re-election campaign’

 

BORGER: "Senator, are we in a dangerous point here in relations between U.S. and Israel?"

MCCAIN: "Well, I think that's up to the president of the United States. There was a free and fair democratic election. They are the only nation in the region that will have such a thing. The president should get over it. Get over your temper tantrums, Mr. President. It's time that we work together with our Israeli friends and try to stem this tide of ISIS and Iranian movement throughout the region which is threatening the very fabric of the region. The least of your problems is what Bibi Netanyahu said during a re-election campaign. If every politician were held to everything they say in a  political campaign obviously that would be a topic of long discussion. But the point is, is the JV, as the present described them, is just moving over into Yemen. We see this horrible situation in Libya. We see ISIS everywhere in the world. We see the Iranians now backing the Shia militias in Tikrit where they're going to massacre a number of Sunnis and it is -- the guy in charge is a guy named Soleimani who imported --excuse me, I will catch up here. Soleimani moved thousands of copper tipped IEDs into Iraq and killed hundreds of American soldiers and marines and the president of the United States is praising the maulers and their behavior in the region. This is one of more [than] an Orwellian situations I have ever observed."
