Alan Dershowitz, a Harvard Law professor emeritus, told Newsmax that it was a shame former President Barack Obama did not condemn the Hamas attacks on Israel sooner.
Joining "The Record with Greta Van Susteren" on Monday, Dershowitz described Obama's response to the nearly 1,000 estimated Israelis killed in the conflict as "three days late. A little too little, a little too late."
"But thank you, President Obama," he said sarcastically. "You told me when you wanted to be reelected president – you called me to the Oval Office, and you said, 'I will always have Israel's back.' I didn't realize you meant to put a target on. Dershowitz is referring to a report from The Wall Street Journal that cited top officials in Hamas and Hezbollah, two anti-Israel terrorist organizations, who claimed Iran funded, plotted, and approved the incursion.
Earlier in the interview, Dershowitz reacted to a statement by over 30 different Harvard student groups blaming Israel for the attacks due to its supposedly "apartheid regime."
