[quote=Anonymous]White House hostage envoy Adam Boehler defended recent talks with Hamas negotiators in Qatar as he described representatives of the U.S.-proscribed foreign terrorist organization as “pretty nice guys.”

In an interview with Jake Tapper on CNN’s State of the Union, the Trump official said he was “sympathetic” to Israel’s foreign minister Ron Dermer, who lashed out at Boehler about the secret talks during a call, according to Axios.

“[Dermer] has someone that he doesn’t know well, making direct contact with Hamas‚” Boehler told CNN on Sunday. “Maybe I would see them and say, ‘Look, they don’t have horns growing out of their head. They’re actually guys like us. They’re pretty nice guys.’”

Axios reported that during the recent call, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s right-hand man criticized Boehler for arranging the discussions without Israel’s consent.

“I understand the consternation and the concern, and I wasn’t upset,” Boehler told Tapper.

“At the same time, we’re the United States. We’re not an agent of Israel. We have specific interests at play.”

How soon till his dismissal?[/quote]
