Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) on Sunday lashed out President Barack Obama
for what he said was a "temper tantrum" after Israeli Prime Minister
used a racial ploy to get out his voters, and then seemingly revoked his
support for a Palestinian state.
Over the weekend, the president told the Huffington Post that Netanyahu had not followed "the best of Israel's traditions" when he warned that Arab Israeli voters were coming out "in droves."
"Although Israel was founded based on the historic Jewish homeland and the need to have a Jewish homeland, Israeli democracy has been premised on everybody in the country being treated equally and fairly," the president said.
On Sunday, McCain insisted to CNN that the "president should get over it."
"Get over your temper tantrum," the former Republican presidential nominee quipped. "The least of your problems is what Bibi Netanyahu said during an election campaign." READ MORE
