The Democrats were unbelievably condescending and snippish in their reply ...

Early on here, Rep. John Yarmouth (D-KY) claims Obama's tentative agreement doesn't have the "sunset clause" Netanyahu warned about throughout the speech. But the White House statements of the last few days undercut Yarmouth's lie, and I'm sure he knows it.
The Democrats would lie when the truth would do better, and if they ever caught themselves telling the truth, they'd turn around and lie just to stay in practice.

I dont mean to be nasty but Im kind of tired of the revisionist history and saying todays Jews aren't Jews. Becuase Hitler seemed to think they were real Jews.So much so that he ushered over 6 million to their deaths. Israel is Jewish and God will and has protected Israel.Look at any country that has come against them,most dont even exist anymore.Just because some want the very existence of Jews erased doesnt make it true.
A very interesting speech.
Here it is for those that have not seen it.

Netanyahu did nothing but give praise to Obama, and Obama in his return interview stated that he agrees with everything Netanyahu said. The only thing the two disagree on is the deal trying to get done, as Netanyahu is not against a deal as he clearly said he is for one. He just wants to have a better deal on the table with tougher sanctions, and the only way the sanctions are to be lifted is if Iran pulls back on their terrorist supporting and mindset on Israel's distruction.
Both sides want to keep Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, just the deal that is not even set in stone yet that is on the table Netanyahu considers a bad deal and wants the U.S. to work on a better deal.

I listened to the speech and to the rebuttal from the Dems. Honestly, I thought Benji did a good job. I thought he portrayed what a Head of State should look/sound like when speaking in public. The ONE point of his speech that (in my opinion) may well be very detrimental to the Administration and the Congressional Democrats was the assertion of the "Sunset Clause" contained in the current agreement being negotiated by the Administration with Iran.
IF this clause is ACTUALLY a part of that agreement, it will cause severe political damage to Obama and to the Congressional Democrats who support him if a deal is reached with Ira.
IF this clause is not now/nor ever has been a part of the negotiation, then Benji will suffer the damage.
I find it hard to believe that a Prime Minister of Israel would stand before a joint session of Congress and tell a blatant lie about the existence of such a clause. Especially knowing that it's existence or non existence could be so easily verified.
I thought the Democrats who responded did not fare well. Seriously, everything they accused Benji of doing in his speech is exactly what they were doing in their rebuttal.
This accusation that Benji was wrong to politicize his speech so close to the Israeli elections is absurd, since the campaign gurus of the Administration are currently in Israel working with Benji's challenger to defeat Benji in the upcoming election.
Hypocrisy shines through like the sun shines in Death Valley.

Yes I find it kind of hard to say he lied to, but at the same time he is a politician and he has already been shown to be wrong on many of occasions he has said. They even pulled out how he has said for the past 25 years that Iran was only a few years or few months from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Netanyahu made these statements many of times in the past 25 years, yet here we are and they still do not have one.

Great speech. At least SOMEONE IN THE U.S. CONGRESS UNDERSTANDS THE ISSUE. Too bad it's a visitor from a foreign nation.
It's certainly not Obama. It's certainly not the Democrats. I don't even think it's the GOP. They're ALL out to lunch in one way or another on the impending potential nuclear global holocaust that Iran is positioning itself to become.
We should just impeach Obama and elect Netanyahu president of the U.S.. Oh that's right, building Islamic theocracies in the name of "diversity" and pushing sodomy onto little boys in the public school system aren't his two greatest missions in life like they are Obama and his supporters.
