Boehner: Obama’s ‘coddled our enemies’
House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) attacked the Obama
administration’s response to the flotilla attempting to break an
Israeli blockade of Gaza.
Israeli military forces were met with resistance and boarded the ship headed to Gaza. Nine people were killed.
Boehner and House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) on ABC’s
“This Week” both defended Israel’s actions, but Boehner accused the
administration of waffling in its support for Israel.
“This is part of a much bigger problem that we see with the administration, where we’ve coddled our enemies, and pushed our friends
aside in the process, raising a lot of doubts around the world,
including the people of Israel, who are having serious doubts about our
commitment to them, our closest ally in the Middle East,” Boehner said
