1. Now HE has also started
Dan Goldman   (08.30.12)
Now HE has also started to waste time like Obama, Ashton P5.1 & IAEA. That sound you hear is the Ayatollahs ROFL in Tehran.
2. C'mon Netanyahu...you nut
(08.30.12)
C'mon Netanyahu...you nut ! Are you going to recite the Grimm's fairytale of the horrible Ayatolla-trolls at the U.N comedy circus ? Attack now or admit Iran has won.
3. Oh gawd not another vital speech
Ivor Evenbiggergun   (08.30.12)
that only Netanyahu can deliver to the United Nations. Are we still buying this c**p?
4. same BS he used against Iraq, not interesting crap!
Adam ,   USA   (08.30.12)
Those days in which the Jewish lobby can push America to war and send Americans to die the mideast to protect Jewish occupation in Palestine are gone. This is not pre-Iraq war America, wake up Bibi and tell your folks in Washington and NY to stop this crap, no one is buying it anymore. We'll watch YOUR war with Iran on FOX news.
5. Sparks may fly!
DavidR ,   USA   (08.30.12)
Not at the UN but perhaps on Sukkot! People get ready!
6. Is it the same speech as in 2011?
Gunnar ,   Gothenburg, Sweden   (08.30.12)
And in 2010? And in 2009? Seems very similar to me at least. Is the world more interested in the Iran issue this year??
7. Bibi You Should Stand Tall And Let The
(08.30.12)
World Know The TRUTH, Then Let The Cards Fall Were They May! May Ha Shem Grant You The Strength Through This Adversity, YOU WILL SUCCEED As You Always Do! You Are A GREAT MAN DOING GREAT THINGS FOR ISRAEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ברוך הא שם
8. bibi a speaker not a doer
alexi   (08.30.12)
bibi whether a uN spokesman, or foreign minister is an eloquent spokesman for israel, far better than olmert and livni combined. But for taking decisions and effective planning, he is not the one. Generals have a shelf life for their effevitve actions as barak did early. He can plan but is not the one to pull the trigger. That will be left to yaalon lieberman and begin. merridor of course will have to be dragged into it as he waffles in the wind.
9. Netanyahu tell the truth?
Sarah B   (08.30.12)
That will be a first. Obviously something happening in Israel which he wants to deflect attentiont from My betting will be Migron on Tuesday
10. #4 Mm? Only, didn't Sharon tell Bush it'd be a bad idea?
Roman ,   Lod, Israel   (08.30.12)
To attack Saddam Hussein, I mean. And it being Ariel Sharon who was PM at the time, rather than Bibi. Just sayin'.
11. More "tough" talk?
Israeli 2   (08.30.12)
Okay, so the scene is set for Obama's re-election. Launch operation: "It"s Now or Never." Hashem imanu
12. What is he coing to do? Talk them to death?
Winston S Ghost ,   London, Occupied Eng   (08.30.12)
13. Bibi - you will again be met by the 3 monkeys
Barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (08.30.12)
one monkey with his hands over his eyes, another with his hands over his ears and another with his hands over his mouth. Don't you get it - rhetoric is not doing it anymore - not moving the masses to react.
14. Yom Kippur
Joeseph ,   UK   (08.30.12)
Still 4 weeks till YK, many things can, might barge in between.
15. Waste of Time
Paul ,   Jerusalem   (08.30.12)
why bother to speak reason with committed degenerates, who are happier breeding Jew hated, then to deal with reality. Jews are the only people left on earth that are boxed-in and cannot indulge in the insanity of lies, blood thirst and greediness of the nations.
16. #4 - I'm afraid that #10 has got you there.
Henry from New York ,   Under the Tuscan Sun   (08.30.12)
Sharon was PM from March 2001 till April 2006. He also campaigned on a platform of withdrawing almost entirely from the West Bank (not sure how it would have worked, but there you go). Please do your due diligence before posting in the future.
17. A couple of naysayers here, but I thoroughly enjoyed his
Henry from New York ,   Under the Tuscan Sun   (08.30.12)
last speech. It's a shame I'll be in Jordan digging when he's giving it so I can't watch with my dad. Of course, it will be nice not to have to deal with the traffic that the UN meeting will create. Oy vey.
18. Bibi, get off your ass and quit jacking your jaws
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (08.30.12)
19. Mileikowsky, don't forget your ancient Netanyahu signet ring
Steven Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (08.30.12)
...to prove to the UN, again, that Palestine belongs to you, and the Jews, not to the native Palestinians. "In my office in Jerusalem, there's a -- there's an ancient seal. It's a signet ring of a Jewish official from the time of the Bible. The seal was found right next to the Western Wall, and it dates back 2,700 years, to the time of King Hezekiah. Now, there's a name of the Jewish official inscribed on the ring in Hebrew. His name was Netanyahu. That's my last name."
20. TICK...TOCK...TICK...TOCK...
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (08.30.12)
21. Ahmadinejad's final warning
BH ,   Iowa   (08.30.12)
Netanyahu (filling the leadership void left by Obama) is putting A-Jad on notice. Stop now or go the way of Haman.
22. If not Mr Netanyahu,who?
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (08.30.12)
I cannot understand the critics of Mr Netanyahu's decision.Standing up for the State of Israel in the political arena is HIS job and he does it very well. So far he hasn't caved into any of Obama's woefully bad policies...and a good job too as events have proved.The US administration has moved in Israel's direction and that's a great success. Unlike the PA,the State of Israel is ACTUALLY a UN member and Mr Netanyahu has to go there and raise is voice to remind the rest of the members of that fact.Only a corpse cannot speak. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
23. Wait till Romney takes oath
The Prophetess ,   FL, USA   (08.30.12)
Bibi, forget schlepping to talk to the Obama - backed UN. Come November, he's on his way out.
24. We are coming up to yom "haki-Purim"
Megillah ,   PA, USA   (08.30.12)
after all. Agree with the remark of the analogy to Haman.
25. Hmm, so obama has his General say that America 'wont comply'
Big bad Jew ,   United States   (08.30.12)
I wouldn't believe obama if he swore he was Jesus and came to save the world....
26. AMERICA LOVES BIBI
Big bad Jew ,   United States   (08.30.12)
obama, not so much. ROMNEY will be our next President after this election. The whole game changes, no more obama, no more obama care that raided Social Security to fund obama care, ( a 3 yr waste of time and energy ) and, no more US tax payers $$ to any pro pal organization or allies.
27. # 23 AMEN LADY, AMEN!
Big bad Jew ,   United States   (08.30.12)
With obama, America's fresh out of hope and is changeless. Love Romney!!!
28. War with Iran will be Iran's fault
Chaim Ben Kahan ,   Efrat, Israel   (08.30.12)
Iran has given Israel, the US, Europe and the world no other choice but to go to war. This is not Israel's war, this is humanities' war to stop Iran from murdering millions of Americans, Europeans, Israelis and Iranians. This war will be the most beneficial for the people of Iran whom will be freed from the Mullahs that enslave them.
29. Wonder if Iran, or any arab country
A ,   Belgium   (08.30.12)
will have the respect to even listen to what the Israeli PM has to say before walking out. They should, seeing as they allow the courtesy to a terrorist pretending to be president of a non-existent state. And as for all of you praying for Romney, I hope you aren't the typical 2 kid, 2 car middle class American family, who also needs 2 hard earned incomes in order to survive. Romney is going to make sure his rich buddies get even richer (with a good catholic boy VP to advise him how to do it) , while you folks are going to have to tighten your belts even more. Still think Obama is bad? Wait...
30. I don't think
Daniela ,   Panama   (08.30.12)
One more speech by BIbi will make the world realize who are the leaders of Iran and what they pursue.120 of them went to Teheran without even caring about the lies and the rhetoric and sponsoring global terrorism around the world. So, I would recommend any Israeli official to stop trying to convince the world of something they already know but do not have the guts to do anything about it. We have lived that situation before, with nuclear irak and nuclear syria. Just move to action the way we did before.I'm sure later on, the world will recognize we did it well.
