Appearing on MSNBC early Tuesday afternoon, guest and former Obama State Department official Joel Rubin lashed out at Israel’s reaction to the settlements vote at the United Nations (UN), comparing Israel to his misbehaving eight-year-old daughter venturing outside in the cold without proper clothing to avoid becoming sick.
Rubin also bolstered his attack on Israel and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government by arguing that UN critics are just bitter with “the uncomfortable truth” that condemning Israel for building settlements enjoys massive support with a unanimous vote on Friday at the UN (with an abstention by the U.S.).
