Washington – President Barack Obama says Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (neh-ten-YAH’-hoo) didn’t offer any “viable alternatives” to the nuclear negotiations with Iran during his speech to Congress.

Obama says he read a transcript of Netanyahu’s speech Tuesday. He says “there was nothing new” in the speech.
Obama says Netanyahu made almost the same speech when he warned against the interim deal reached with Iran. Obama says that deal has resulted in a freeze and rolling back of Iran’s nuclear program.
Obama says Netanyahu’s alternative to the talks amounts to no deal at all. He says that would lead Iran to redouble efforts to build a nuclear bomb.
In his speech, Netanyahu said the deal would all but guarantee that Iran gets nuclear weapons.
Obama spoke in the Oval Office alongside Defense Secretary Ash Carter.
Netanyahu is an agitator who seeks war. He is a Chutzpaniok to come here give a speech in congress in spite of the president and the state department.
Politically,Netanyahu and his supporters might be right for coming here.From a Torah standpoint you are all wrong.
Jews are not allowed no matter what to have a Jewish state before Moshiach comes.
Hadn’t there been an Israel there wouldn’t off been a threat from any Arab country including Iran.
Now we do have Israel it is under constant threat from all its enemies. Over thirty thousand Jews were murdered in Israel since its founding.
Fact is Israel is not the safe place for Jews it was supposed to be after the Holocaust. Even IF it would of been a safe place still we are not allowed to have a state.
I know the truth hurts but this is what the Torah tells us.
You should all learn the sefer “Vayoel Moshe” for a real clarification
You should all read a good book “Torah Judaism and the state of Israel”
Nonsense! Netanyahu said that the sanctions should continue and be strengthened. Iran is almost bankrupt and that is the only reason they are at the negotiating table. A bad deal would only embolden them especially if the sanctions were removed.
I’m shocked! I was certain he’d congratulate him and call off the negotiations immediately!
lyv meluchim vesurim beyad hashem..it will only be what hashem wants it to be..
if the time has come for world war 3 this is where it will all start
lets be mispalel this pirim that amulyk will be extinguished and all jews can live in harmony till moshiach will bring us all up to eretz hakdoyshe
Obama would do well to meet with Netanyahu rather than sit in his office watching him talk. The Israelis have been known to find creative solutions to problems. Obama should recognize this and appreciate it.
All you Satmar dudes, on the other hand, should recognize and be Makir Tov that you have a Rebbe. If not for the Zionists rescuing the Vayoel Moshe from the Nazis you guys would all be Breslov. Read up on the Kasztner train.
Whos shocked???? Hes just a stupid busybody& w a cynical mouthpiece! What a boring speech. He jad nothing to add only subtracted by bypasssing the President. He was here for kavod& kavod only.
His job was to describe the threat, not to tell America what to do. This is what he accomplished. Had he offered another avenue to pursue he would be condemned for dictating US policy.
Wow I am shocked with all the Neturei Karta nut jobs on this board.
It was an awesome speech. In 6+ years I don’t ever recall Obama giving a speech this powerful.
