For the third time in four days Obama has attacked Israel for defending themselves from Hamas terrorists. Last time I checked Israel has never criticized the U.S. for killing what they consider too many civilian deaths in Afghanistan.

Obama spoke at the White House a few minutes ago:

US President Barack Obama says Washington has “serious concerns” about the rising death toll among the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

“We have serious concerns about rising number of Palestinian deaths and the loss of Israeli lives,” the president says, largely reiterating comments made to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a phone conversation a day before. “We need a ceasefire.”

“I’ve asked John [Kerry] to do everything he can to reach a cessation in hostilities. We don’t want to see any more civilians killed,” he says.
