Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Addresses Congress

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited Capitol Hill today meeting with members of Congress and delivered an address to a Joint Meeting of Congress.

During his speech to Congress P.M. Netanyahu stated, “As President Obama said, borders will be different than 1967. Israel will not return to ‘indefensible’ borders.” He added “It’s absolutely vital that a Palestinian state be demilitarized.”

He suggested that Israel is “willing” to advance the negotiations but must “make painful compromises” for peace.

    PM Netanyahu, don’t give up any of Israel’s land! America is behind you!

    • EddieW

      Right on CJ… Obozo, our Liar in Chief threatens that they will be isolated…hinting our support will be taken away… The support of the majority of the people are behind Israel!!

      • George

        God Bless you and our friends the Israeli people, Mr. Prime Minister! The majority of Americans DID NOT elect this atheist obummer. He is an illegal alien that God allowed to get into power to wake up the slumbering masses in this great country. This so-called president is coming against our only true ally in the Middle East, Israel. He is a muslim, so he doesn’t understand the promises of God which say that He will bless those who bless Israel and curse those who curse Israel. I believe the horrendous weather and natural disasters in the US are a direct result from this imbecile moron coming against Israel. Since we allowed this impostor to be elected, God is holding us as a nation accountable.

        • Mamma22

          Well said, George!!! I posted Gen. 12:3 as my status on FB. I’m scared that the US is in for big trouble from God because, through our “elected” POTUS, we have cursed Israel. He is a Muslim who is blinded to the truth about the relationship between God and the Jews and the covenant He made TO Israel regarding THEIR land, Israel. Hold on America, we’re about to really see the wrath of God!
          I stand with you PM Netanyahu!

        • Randall Robinson

          Prime Minister Netanyahu has a better understanding of the moral and intellectual philosophy that undergirds our constitutional republic that our own president. To listen comparatively to Natanyahu and Obama recently embarasses me that we have such a fool in the White House. When he was sitting down in the oval office with Netanyahu he was in way over his head.

          • sue thomas

            Randall: You are so right; this proposal of changing Israel’s boundries is about the same as England insisting that the U.S. change our boundries to 1492! Impossible! This demand made by ‘the great and powerful O’ is even worse than the insult to England by returning the bust of our here, Winston Churchill. by the Obamas!! I do not understand why the O’s had the power to insult a long-standing ally of ours by doing so, when it should have been put in the Smithsonian.

        • Mary

          Amen, I agree that Nobama was a hugh mistake by many voters, I did not vote for him, after seeing and hearing what was coming out of his mouth. It was obvious he was anti-American and appealed to those who hate America and what it stands for. However, this has awakened the “sleeping giant” to bring out our Christian beliefs and values. God will take care of his own, and that includes the land and country he promised to his people. God will also take care of those who love, trust and believe in him. I have a very strong feeling that Nobama is not a Christian

        • Apache6

          GEORGE,I agree 100%,GOD is holding US accountable for OVOMIT,hence all the weather disasters !!!

    • http://www.rudylogos.com R. T. Tidwell

      Right on, DJ! Not only does Israel own all of the post-1967 borders, but all of the land from the Meditarranean to all of Jordan, most of Syria, and much of all the land beween the Sea and East as far as the land goes within 200 miles of their eastern borders now which includes the 1967 borders as they are called by muslims and liberals!!

    • yafah2

      America might be behind Bibi but not the president !!!!!

    • cheryl jessup

      I wish the Netanyaho had been born in America. We could use a president like him Obama is pro Muslim and he has just proved it. I would tell the Jews who vote for Democrats, you’d better vote for Republicans before Obama destroys Israel.

      • sue thomas

        Cheryl: Have you seen the new ‘Elect Obama” bumper-stickers on the cars belonging to Jews? MAYBE this outrage will make them realize they have been taken for fools again!

      They too have fallen away from GOD while respecting some other God if any at all.

      It is irrational to think that any nation can save more than a hand full of people from overpopulated poorer nation. Especially when most refuse to change their life style and blame the Jones’s for their plight.

      It is irrational to call mom a Nazi A. hole for giving people a ride back home to keep her home from overpopulation. It is irrational to think that any single payer social program will work best. It is irrational to think that nations can tax its way out of poverty. It is irrational to believe that a power convinced that you have nowhere else to go will do your biding.

      No one is going to stand in their way the template to convince people that a rational person is a very sick or stupid SOB must be removed first. And only you can remove yours. The misuse of Negative Theory must be taught to future generations.

      A true Conservative and a true Liberal agree on one thing though for different reasons. Any single payer social program is a nutty idea! Now each believes that it’s not so nutty as long as their side is managing it.

      We can destroy the power by replacing them with citizens that can be immediately removed by citizens should they grow a greedy bone and never serve for a life time. We must take control ourselves. Please join with us at Goooh.com you might be able to click on my name. This will take you to my link page that links to Goooh.com, NumbersUSA.com and SBA-list.org.

HMMM!!!! anyone up for campaign” Netanyahu for president”

    I’ve been saying he should have been impeached for a year now… of course they never publish comment like that (true)!!

  • Gr82BGrn

    The only school the Pres really graduated from, is the Alinsky school of Community Organizing. He was taught to lie to whatever group you are in front of, even if the lie you tell today contradicts the lie of yesterday (or, even a moment ago) because if you have the right network, you have corrective spin coming out to constantly redefine the argument. The truth is what will overcome BO. It is too late to change the history of his experiences so that he and those with him, may realize the values of a free market society. We simply have to be better informed, stay better in touch with each other, and vote. Getting out the vote is America’s way of governance. So, let’s stay focused on defeating this virus in our Republic!

    • sue thomas

      GR82: watch out! Jacksonville has just elected a new mayor. He’s from Acorn , like Obama! How they did it? They bussed in voters to the office of Voters Registeration on the day of election, from the formerly-non-voting-negros. I’ve never heard of allowing people to vote downtown at the Voters’ Registeration Office, before. This man has changed the name to Blacksonville. (JUST KIDDDING about the namechange.)

    Mr. Netanyahoo is what I would love to have running THIS country. I am so envious of Israel. And he does not need any damned prompters .
    David against Goliath again for poor Israel.

  • Adrian Fitzpatrick

    I watched Prime Minister Netanyahu and and I was amazed at the number of standing ovations he received, must have been at least 20. Then I got to thinking, “What if that man were President of the United States.” One thing is for sure, I think most Americans identify with him than the one occupying the White House.

    • Penny Fuentes

      Prime Minister Netanyahu receieved 52 standing ovations and applause from Congress- Amazing- God Bless Israel and God Bless America.
      While the Prime Minister was being honored obama bin lying was flitting about Europe what a reprobate.

      • cheryl jessup

        Obama’s trip to 6 countries is just a campaign trip. Obama thinks he can convince the Irish he is Irish because after 3 generations he has only one drop of blood he is Irish and the American Irish will vote for him. The money he spent on this trip could have went to help the tornado victims. He doesn’t give a dam. It’s all about him. Anybody that takes this traitor out should be given a medal.

      • Nancy

        Don’t forget how he embarressed us, AGAIN!!!!!

  • Jeff

    I think we have forgotten what it’s like to have a real leader. Thank you
    Mr. Nitanyahu, for the memories.

  • http://www.ccaabo.com Bill from Laos

    I have never acknowledged Obama as my president because I have no respect for him. He is a cheap lying thug, but most of us know that already. The question is, “What are We the People” going to do about him? We cannot – must not – allow him a second term, no matter what. That’s why this citizens class action was started. Stop complaining – start acting! Are you with us?

  • http://yahoo charles

    that pm is way to smart for obamma the fool . good thing he was not there ,pm got his point across better.

  • Patriot13

    I’m not going to frame Israel’s situation in religious terms. The fact is that Israel is the only democratic state in the Middle East, and easily the most valuable ally of the U.S. in that region. One of the responsibilities of the U.S. is to foster and protect democracies throughout the world. The Obama administration is failing to fulfill that responsibility; worse, it is negotiating with Israel’s self-admitted mortal enemies. Obama has taken a completely opposite approach to the issues in the Middle East than any other president, and it will be disastrous to American interests if he continues in the direction he has chosen. We should not be dealing with terrorist organizations, especially one whose stated purpose is the destruction of an ally. I hope Netanyahu, and Israel, stand firm. The U.S. is with them, and Obama won’t be president much longer, God willing.

  • Bill Says

    Prime Minister Netanyahu should tell Muslim Obama if we’re turning back the calendar, Israel should reclaim the original Bible boundaries God gave Moses and Joshua beginning around 1500 B.C.: all the land west of the Jordan River before Islam or people that call themselves Palestinians.
    Muslims didn’t exist until the 7th century and now they want THEIR land back.

  • ed gallagher

    That was a truly masterful speech. There were no unpopped balloons in the room when he was finished. He made his case for Israels right of self defense with simple logic and candor and was unmistakable in his intentions. He let the United Congress know that Iran will never possess nuclear weapons, with or without our help. He told the world the full unvarnished truth about Hamas & Hezbollah. He was unabashed in his affection for America yet like a family member threw some jabs to wake up some folks in Congress that embrace the new leftist-antisemitism. His statement that there are more Arabs in Israel enjoying complete freedom than there are in the rest of the Arab world combined is staggering in its implications. He stated his case in simple eloquence and candor and with great humility. I almost wonder if he studied Reagans speaking style.

  • James May

    Today was the first time we’ve had real leadership behind that microphone in a long while. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is no joke…what a statesman, what a leader, cut out of the stone “Reaganite”! And way to look at our President and say “you have no idea of what you’re talking about.” Awesome and awe inspiring…this country is so hungry for real leadership…and we just saw what it looks like again. Remember America and lets take this country back…

  • R. Cook

    It really brought home the fact that we have an empty suit as PINO and demonstrated what a true leader can be.

  • peggymarch

    Here we are cheering the head of a foreign land, who has just told the president what he thinks of his plan. Can we switch presidents??

    • sue thomas

      Peggymarch: If we did switch presidents, the Israelites would probably put him on the border for target practice.

  • WardMD

    What an AMAZING contrast between an INTELLIGENT, ARTICULATE man, and our President (Teleprompter-in-chief)!

    I’m SURE we can photoshop a birth certificate for Mr. Netanyahu (every bit as believable as Mr. O’Bama’s Hawaiian [wink-wink] one)!

    It was GREAT watching our little Man-Child president being LECTURED by a REAL Leader (when Netanyahu told Obama that his 1967 borders would NEVER HAPPEN)!

    This just PROVES IT: EVERYTHING is about Obama’s Pay Grade!

    We are a COUNTRY in need of a PRESIDENT, NOT a Community in need of an Organizer!

    • Penny Fuentes

      Amen, couldn’t have said it better.

  • Randall Robinson

    It is sad to see that the voters in a congressional district in New York believe the Democrats and their sycophantic news media. That race was billed as a referendum on the Ryan plan. It is also a referendum on President Obama, including his policy on Israel. Don’t think that he will be easily defeated next year. He plans to have the nation in his grasp as surely as Rahm Immanuel has a grasp upon Chicago.

    PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU,
    You are a true statesman, and AMERICANS were honored by your visit. You spoke the TRUTH, and you spoke from your heart. I Stand With Israel… I wish that you could lead America to the freedom we once had, but since you cannot…Americans will follow your principles to guide us. Thank you, sir.

    It’s a damn shame that a leader of another country is giving us a speech of American pride! Our president should be making us proud of our country!!! I guess he would if he WAS an American, instead of a Kenyan!

    I say let ‘em duke it out- I think Netanyahu would not take names. That would be the best fight there ever was! I would LOVE to see him get his face (or is it his ass) kicked to high heaven- he would be lost, that’s for sure!

    • .50BMG

      Obummer, that is, just in case I wasn’t clear.

  • Ridge Runner

    I would like to make a point that i haven’t seen lately. Obama defently has to go if we are to have any thing left resembling our u.s.of A. Bill clinton and george bush both signed the us under un rule which is the new world order,0ne world gov.our fed.lands and are operating under un mandates. That is bad but just see this they can’t do a whole lot with out congress and senate being with them. If we are going to undo what has been done to our country then we have to change most of the congress and the senate reps. They are realy are the people that have done the most damage to our country. The voters have to accept most of the blame because they have sat on their asses not doing their civic duty and let these crooks run amok. It is past the time to put on the brakes and put every thing in reverse.

  • Fred Sturdevant

    What part of the speech which was amazing could not be considered a major butt whooping on Obama! Looked pretty much like he was taken to the much deserved wood shed for his schooling.
