GOP still upset that Obama don't use "Terrorist" in Israel attack
President Obama on Wednesday called Hamas’s killing of Israeli settlers in the West Bank a “senseless slaughter” that shows how much terrorists don’t want peace talks to succeed.

“There are going to be extremists and rejectionists who, rather than seeking peace, are going to be seeking destruction, and the tragedy that we saw yesterday, where people were gunned down on the street by terrorists who are purposely trying to undermine these talks, is an example of what we're up against,” Obama said alongside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel after they met in the Oval Office.

Obama said he had “confidence” in Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to reach a deal with Israel, and he vowed to “remain stalwart” in the face of terrorism in the Middle East.

“The United States is going to be unwavering in its support of Israel’s security, and we are going to push back against these kinds of terrorist activities,” he said.
