Witkoff and Kushner blew it on ‘60 Minutes’
By Sally Zelikovsky
Just when Republicans are winning, they go and shoot themselves in the foot, giving away vital political gains to liberals. We are literally the gift that keeps giving.
Enter: Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, architects of the potential peace deal whereby Hamas finally released Israeli hostages after over two years of brutal captivity. Spiking the football, the two ventured into the belly of the beast by giving an interview to Leslie Stahl of 60 Minutes.
That alone is a rookie mistake, by rookies playing statesmen and politicos. Not only are Stahl, 60 Minutes, and CBS compromised, their audience is chock-full of liberals holding viewpoints that do not support or favor Israel, certainly not in the aftermath of October 7th.
The excerpt CBS released before going on air Sunday included both Witkoff (dare I say Witless?) and Kushner discussing their reaction to Israel’s September 9th attack in Doha against Hamas leaders.
The duo characterized Israel as “out of control” and having nearly jeopardized the entire deal process. In discussing their surprise about Israel’s missile strike against Hamas leaders living in and getting protection from Qatar, Witkoff stated, “You know, I think both Jared and I felt, I just feel we felt a little bit betrayed.”
