Rubio: Obama Threat to Israel ‘Emboldens Their Enemies’

Florida senator Marco Rubio took the floor of the U.S. Senate Thursday to call the Obama administration’s treatment of the state of Israel a “historic and tragic mistake.” Rubio’s address came on the same day as a report the White House is considering not defending Israel in front of attacks from member nations of international groups like the United Nations.
