Anyone else listen to it? The US has already been successful intervening in India, Pakistan and N. Korea to stop their march to join the nuclear club. WTF are the Jews worried about? Can't the great Satan (this must be a title of great affection as the Iranians commonly and regularly utilize it in their news media to describe the US) take care of it for them?
I've already told my Congressman what I thought. Your thoughts?

Washington learned the futility of standing there talking too.

You can't be serious with this statement. We have failed repeatedly and abysmally in every respect with regard to limiting nukes in India, Pakistan and N. Korea.

It was a brilliant speech. Netanyahu took a page right out of Dick Cheney's playbook and pandered to the lowest common denominator--fear.

Iran has more to fear from Israel than vice versa. Afterall, Israel has nukes, and a nut for prime minister.

Netanyahu demonstrated leadership and guts in standing up to those forces in the world that clearly have ambitions to destroy both Isreal and the West.
Netanyahu is despised by the idiotically deranged Left because he made their "leader" Obama look like what he clearly is : a weak , incompetent,and very small malignant narcissist ,who views both Isreal and American conservatives as a greater threat than Islamist terrorist regimes, who Obama obviously harbors sympathies for.

I was wondering when a Republican would chime in with a good Netan-balljob.

I feel that Flip Flop's suggestion is only fair.

I'm not particularly happy about the head of state of a foreign country trying to subvert the policy of the United States, and I'm particularly not happy about the Speaker helping to do it.

Agreed.
All this was, is another installment of mugging the US Taxpayers for money, to add to our debt.

I didn't listen to the speech. I pay little attention to the media, except for books.
One book which is relatively current, Fallen Angel (#12 in the Gabriel Allon series) by Daniel Silva, is briefly described in this blog.
http://www.housewifespice.com/2014/08/wwrw-paperback-novel.html
I understand there are many hidden currents under the surface of things.
The Israelis, if you take Daniel Silva's view, are masters of deception and more clever at it than the Islamic terrorists. All bias is based on one's roots, and Silva is at least half Portugese and Catholic...I've met his mother in the bookstore (Second Time Around on Main Street in Merced) several times.
She is or was very upset over her son's marriage to a Jew, apparently, and also at his taking liberties with the top echelons of Roman Catholicism. She is a retired teacher. She is very authoritarian.
She is entitled to her views, like anybody else; she is not afraid to speak her mind; and I'm glad she chose to share them with me, her bookseller but not her confessor. :0)
It gave me something to think on as I read through the entire series. The Israelis are only 12 million against an overwhelming number of Muslim neighbors, most of whom would like nothing better than the annihilation of the Zionist state. Unless it's the radical conversion of the Christian world.
There is no talk of Hinduism, of buddhism, or moonies. Just the conflicts among the three Abrahamic religions.
The problem as the Israelis see it is that the Muslims are run by the fercocktah imams. There is the problem of the Palestinians and their plight, but there are ample places for them to go and settle among their coreligionists. The Israelis accept virtually all Jews who wish to move in with their relatives.
I've always tended to agree with author Leon Uris, who pointed out in his novel The Haj that Islam is a harsh religion which fits into a harsh way of existence, a generalization of the Muslim as a nomadic dweller in the desert, but still a sensible approach to viewing the religion.
I suggest you stop listening to politicians, especially since they lie and obfuscate pretty much like spies and spooks. At least take their words as just words and look at the actions of the characters involved in the Middle East's ongoing crisis.
It's the longest-lasting crisis in history so it must be important.
And it's always good for a thread topic.

He's an international war criminal, mass Murderer and this planets biggest terrorist.
Most Americans have no clue what this fukhead has really done in the last 20 years.
He's so insane that even his own intelligent agencies are now going against this aszhole.
Finally!!
Mossad even came out publicly against him which is unheard of.
He comes from a total criminal background.
He should have been arrested the minute he stepped into the USA.
The US Air force has been jokingly openly talking they wanted to shoot down the fukheads plane.
Obama deserve highest accolades standing up and for finally telling this creep to fuk off.
Oooooorrrahhhh !!!!!
