U.S. Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides said he spends the majority of his time helping Palestinians, an unusual remark from a diplomat purporting to serve as the U.S. envoy to Israel.
“Every action creates a reaction,” Nides said during the interview on the Axe Files podcast, which is affiliated with CNN.
“The IDF soldiers come in [to a Palestinian-controlled area] and they’re under attack, they kill an innocent Palestinian. Terrible. The Palestinians react to that, and they create another act. It’s just how these things unravel. It’s tragic.” “It has been [a vexing issue] for the Arab countries as well who tend not to speak up as much as they should vis-à-vis some of the actions that are going on in the West Bank,” Nides said.
