U.S. Ambassador Friedman: Hamas Breaching Gaza Border a "Suicide Bomb on a Large Scale"


(JNS) Alex Traiman - Addressing the deaths of Palestinians killed while trying to breach the border fence between Gaza and Israel, U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman said Tuesday: "We never have disputes with the Palestinian people. We only have disputes with Palestinian leaders. We have a problem with a Palestinian leader [Mahmoud Abbas] who says that the Jews were responsible for their own deaths in the Holocaust." "And we have a problem with Palestinian leaders who tell 14-year-olds that the Gaza border has been breached, and they can go ahead and march on to Jerusalem, only to find that the Israel Defense Forces are waiting for them. That's a suicide bomb on a large scale."
