"Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Wednesday blasted President Barack Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry following Kerry's speech on the Middle East peace process.
In a statement, Cruz said the two would be remembered in history as 'relentless enemies of Israel'.
'Like bitter clingers, President Obama and Secretary Kerry are spending every last minute of this administration wreaking havoc domestically and abroad. With their last breath in office, they have struck at Israel, through the United Nations and through today's disgraceful speech,' he charged.
'These acts are shameful. They are designed to secure a legacy, and indeed they have: History will record and the world will fully understand Obama and Kerry as relentless enemies of Israel. Their actions were designed to weaken and marginalize Israel, and to embolden its enemies,' added Cruz.
'Today's speech -- like Kerry's 2014 remarks likening Israel to an apartheid state -- will enflame rising anti-Semitism in Europe. It will encourage the mullahs who hate Israel and hate America. And it will facilitate 'law-fare,' growing legal assaults on Israel through transnational legal fora,' he warned..."
