Netanyahu Makes Case Against Iran Deal in Address to Congress

a reply to: IAMTAT

He's doing that to appease his critics back in Israel.

Nothing else.

Netanyahu = Don Quixote

Iran = Windmills

I wonder if Iran would welcome Israeli inspectors?

I wonder if Israel would welcome ANY inspectors to their Nuke facilities?

Exactly.

Why is it that Israel can have all the nukes it wants, yet tells everyone else they can't? America needs to get out of Israel's backside.

The guy makes better speeches than Obama.

No wonder the jealousy.

And how many Iran troops are in Syria and Iraq?

Not much discussion about all that is there.

Because making great speeches means everything,

Wow. Comparing the leader of Israel with the leader of Nazi Germany?!
Strange logic...but thanks for sharing

Actually is makes pretty good sense. Both think they're the chosen one. Both imprison people they feel are beneath them. Both create apartied conditions for their subservient. Both are war mongerers. Both can kiss my a$$.

Second line

What makes this photo hilarious is just how small Israel actually is..... and if Israel wanted to be that big, who would have stopped her?

Public opinion. That's who Israel is always up against. If they thought they could get away with invading all of her neighbors without the world condemning them, they would have already done it.

But, so what! Is he right? Does Iran threaten to extinguish Israel every chance it gets?

No. Can you please show where Iran has ever threatened Israel?

I'll wait.

And please don't reference the "Wipe Israel of the Map" rhetoric that has been debunked. What you need to first accept is that leaders lie for their own agenda. If you can accept that, then look at history behind the curtains, you will see a war going on for your mind.

Iran has NEVER threatened Israel.

would Ahmadinejad tolerate Bibi saying Iran should
be wiped off the map?

A lot of these comments are ridiculous. Of course he had the right to address our Congress - Israel is our ally. I also think every point he made was valid - Iran sponsors terrorism and is the single biggest threat to peace in the Middle East. If they get nuclear weapons it is a guarantee of nuclear war. If we want to deter nuclear war and protect our ally, we need to stop Iran.

It sickens me that our own president didn't even show up. This was the most sane, most powerful, most moving speech I have heard in my lifetime. If you disagree with anything he said you are living in a fantasy world.

1.....why didn't Netanyahu and the republican congress wait another 3 weeks until after his election in Israel?
2.....why would the republican congress want to possibly scuttle the U.S. negotiations?

ARE YOU BLIND?

All those links you posted are IF ISRAEL ATTACKS IRAN.

God you really do skip over info that negates your point don't you?

As I said, prove that Iran threatens to destroy Israel...

I'll wait.

You're wrong. It has not been debunked. The attempt has been made. It has been excused as a "mistranslation" and glossed over.

Nope. As I've said, that has been debunked by even the Israelis.

Last week, Teymoor Nabili of Al Jazeera suggested during an interview with Dan Meridor, Israel’s minister of intelligence and atomic energy, that Mr. Ahmadinejad’s rhetorical flourish had been misinterpreted. “This idea that Iran wants to wipe Israel out,” Mr. Nabili said, “now that’s a common trope that is put about by a lot of people in Israel, a lot of people in the United States, but as we know Ahmadinejad didn’t say that he plans to exterminate Israel, nor did he say that Iran’s policy is to exterminate Israel.”

I said find proof

That has been disproved over and over again as being mistranslated.
thelede.blogs.nytimes.com...

Although there is general agreement now among translators and scholars that Mr. Ahmadinejad did not commit his country to the project of destroying the state of Israel in that 2005 speech, the phrase that was wrongly attributed to him then remains so firmly rooted in the popular imagination that it is frequently used as evidence of Iran’s genocidal intentions.

Ya, by the israelies...

They have said it was a mistranslation.

It's so funny that you just want to believe want you want to believe. You ignore facts, refuse to use facts to support your points, and when you do, those facts aren't really facts.

It's sad.

Do you not remember Ahmadinejad addressing the General Assembly at the UN in 2012 and talking about Israel being a tumor that needs to be eliminated? Remember, when delegates got up and actually walked out on his vile speech?
