1. Obama is contradicting himself
CJK   (02.09.15)
obama is set to sign a capitulation deal with iran, but he accuses netanyahu of "souring" the deal with his speech to congress. this accusation against netanyahu is absurd since obama admits that the deal depends on the political will of the regime in iran to sign the deal.
2. Well played Hussein, but it is a little early in the year
Kerwood Derby ,   Frostbite Falls, MN   (02.09.15)
for blood libels against Yehudim. But it makes sense you lay the path for another of your failures at the doorstep of you and your anti Shemite Jew hating fiends. Shout out to you folks and especially Rashid Khalidi, BHO's babysitting fiend.
3. Bibi is 100% correct: and leftists 100% wrong
Chaim ,   Israel   (02.09.15)
Bibi is not merely addressing some of Israel's best friends, in the world, when he addressed the U.S. Congress. Bibi is addressing the world. Make no mistake: the world will be listening. Bibi needs to lay out the dangers of nuclear Iran and justify destroying Iran's nukes. Nobody can make the case more intelligently than Bibi. Bibi is 100% correct about addressing Congress; and the leftists, like ALWAYS, are 100% wrong.
4. Obama contradicts himself.
Matt C ,   Canada   (02.09.15)
On one hand, Obama claims that the timing of Netanyahu's speech to the US Congress about Iran is just about "partisan politics" and Israel's election, but on the other, he announces that he "can now present the Islamic Republic with an agreement." Isn't that an admission that now is the right time, and indeed the only time, for Israel to express its concerns, before it is too late? Why shouldn't Prime Minister Netanyahu get a chance to speak in the final "month or two" of negotiations, considering the huge impact this decision has on Israel?
5. Obama's Iran deal set to be signed
CJK   (02.09.15)
obama is terrified that congress and the american people will find out that his deal with iran will allow that totalitarian genocidal terror regime to keep virtually intact its nuclear weapons program. iran will be allowed to keep ten thousand centrifuges for nuclear enrichment; iran will be allowed to continue its weaponisation program; iran will be allowed to keep its heavy water reactor at arak; iran will continue experimentations on nuclear triggers and implosion devices; iran will continue to build long range icbm's. obama does not want people to find out that the emperor has no cloths.
6. why should Bibi's speech have any effect on negotiations?
Adrien ,   Paris   (02.09.15)
Unless of course Obama is scared Netanyahu can talk some sense into enough democrats.
7. Obama has no clue about middle east
Tova ,   Canada   (02.09.15)
or any international politics. Obama disapproves of Israel for any reason. Obama is not for Israel never was. Obama speaks like a Islamic clergy - talks about peace at the same time he waits for the destruction of Israel.
8. Is this another Neville Chamberlain "Munich Agreement"
(02.09.15)
After the summit, the British prime minister Chamberlain returned to Great Britain where he declared that the Munich agreement meant "peace for our time". Neville Chamberlain: "My good friends, for the second time in our history a British Prime Minister has returned from Germany bringing peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time. Winston Churchill: "England has been offered a choice between war and shame. She has chosen shame, and will get war."
9. Bama is an empty suit
Abu Zibby ,   Haifa, IL   (02.09.15)
Obama and Kerry are not in charge. You can do with them what you want. In the end they'll be a problem for their Democrat vote banks in the US.
10. Freedom of speech
Bob   (02.09.15)
Let the man speak,it's just a speech. Congressmen can listen and make up their own mind.
11. Mullah Hussein Obama speaks for Iran...
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (02.09.15)
Bibi will speak for US ALL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
12. Hussein Obama is already wetting his pants !
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (02.09.15)
Sorry Mr. Prez...history will not be kind to you !
13. Hussein O. is a traitor and an Iranian agent.
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (02.09.15)
Hopefully impeachment is just around the corner...
14. BIBI IS WEAK
sheik rattle & roll ,   USA   (02.09.15)
First and foremost who the heck is he to address congress and the American people? He should be addressing his own people and government. He is an arrogant POS for even speaking to the American people. He should formulate his own Iran policy and do what has to be done. He should mobilize his vaunted IDF and march on Tehran if that floats his boat. He will get the full support of America as long as not one US soldier is involved or one dollar is spent.
15. What Obama, Biden and the EU won't tell you
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (02.09.15)
Obama, Biden and the EU want to mantain profitable business deals with Iran while sacrificing Israel. Sacificing Israel serves their 1) anti-Semitism and 2) their desire to continue profitable business deals with Iran. Israel defending herself would disrupt the Obama-EU conspiracy all together. The Europeans haven't abandoned 1500 years of European anti-Semitism and Obama is a covert Moslem holding USA, Israel, the West and the world hostage to his nefarious plans: to covertly help Islam to conquer the world and to covertly undermine USA, Israel, the West and world peace. That's the plan all along. Israel shouldn't wait. Time to attack Iran. Israel's nuclear arsenal is sufficient to destroy Iran. An Israeli nuclear attack on Iran would deter any nation to mess with Israel. Obama must learn his place. Noone "warns" Israel unless they have a death wish. Time to use Israel's military power. Time to use power language.
16. Bibi make your speach now! Every one is listening
Martin SA   (02.09.15)
Bibi make your speech now Everyone is listening even reluctant Obama Kerry etc. Iran has sold a shaky deal and somehow the west wants to prove diplomacy is the only answer. Bad deal needs to be revealed in detail now why wait to stand at congress and the senate? The anti-Semitic EU is making boycott threats they are so taken up with this deal. We dare not disrupt the deal whether it is good or bad. do they have such faith the hateful kumei that he will keep his word? He is secretly busy deep in Iran doing what he wants to do as mentioned only yesterday Iran will privately make the bomb and test intercontinental missiles and has satellites etc Is the EU happy that Iran does not threaten them when they control shipping lanes now with the change in Yemen? Is the kumeini now a tame dove and he can be trusted? Bibi must stand up now and let the world understand what this deal is about and Explain clearly how the deal threatens us all. The speech needs to be professional pact with facts. Evaluate the positive progress of the deal on the table and explain clearly where it is deficient. Avoid emotional triggers and stick to the facts evaluate Iran and why we cant rely on their leaders. Obama has bought the EU to now force on us a 2 state solution and again threaten sanctions if we don't step in line. Europe EU has their own problems to address before imposing dodgy peace agreements on us and by attempting to tamper and change Israeli political order. Our job is to protect our interests more than impress these people and be good diplomats. Am Yisroel Chai
17. L.O.L. He is lying!
Bill ,   Skokie U.S.A.   (02.09.15)
PM. Netanyahu states, "According to reports, the agreement will allow them to produce dozens of nuclear bombs. There is NO WAY that the agreement allows for Iran to build nuclear bombs! Mr. Netanyahu is insulting the intelligence of the citizens of Israel, and is telling bold face lies! As a member of the non proliferation treaty Iran has the right to peaceful nuclear technology, the purpose of these negotiations is to make certain that they are stickily for the purpose of nuclear power and medical applications. The state of Iran cannot be denied these rights no matter our concern, if they are there is no reason for any other country to sign on to the treaty. Israel defied the United States in the early 60's in their pursuit of the bomb, and did what they thought were in the best interests of the security of their nation and did it deceivingly. So its natural for the Israeli leadership today to think that Iran would do the same thing. However the the rest of the world has no reason to believe that they cannot safe guard this history from repeating itself because everything is being exposed to open verification and Presidents are less likely to be assassinated today!
18. pluck this incompetent imposter.
ralph   (02.09.15)
19. Obama is a Muslim !.
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (02.09.15)
20. Bibi: Israel's security is YOUR responsibility!
Shep ,   Memphis, TN - USA   (02.09.15)
This whole fiasco regarding PM Netayahu's speech before Congress is a Obama manufactured crisis designed to weaken Bibi as election near and more importantly, to make sure his "legacy" as the President who penned a deal with Iran is secured. Screw Obama. Bibi has a moral responsibility to scream from the rooftops regarding Iran's nuclear program, because if Obama pens a deal that leaves them on the nuclear threshold, he will set in motion a war between Israel and Iran. A war, I might add, that for 40 years has been "one-way" with Iran using their surrogates on Israel's borders. Isreal will have no choice BUT to take out Iran's nuke sites and punish an already extended and weakened Hezbullah. Israel really has nothing to lose at this point. It must be noted that the Israeli people and the American people have the highest regards for the Iranian people - just not the Mullahs and Revolutionary Guards.
21. JUST DO IT BIBI..... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brian   (02.09.15)
None of these other people give DAMN about Israel or Jews!
22. Obama
debbyfayga ,   Orange   (02.09.15)
venal man
23. Obama is in full support of Irans nuclear
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (02.09.15)
Holocaust program. HE MUST BE STOPPED NOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!
24. Reports states I ran will be allowed ..
Beary White ,   Norway   (02.09.15)
...to continuing with more than 3000 centrifuges, with the blessings of mr..Sotero. And BIBI will tell more in his speech to the congress. Seems like mr Sotero prefer mostly a good relation with the priests in Iran, than with the democratic State of Israel. I am NOT surprised, what else to expect from a sunni...
25. hope this issue is resolved quickly
Arn   (02.09.15)
needs to know where he stands. He still has to prepare some inspiring drawings to make his point...
26. Liberal-leftist American Jews:this one's on YOU.
ASTRONAUT ,   USA   (02.09.15)
27. Obama warning!
A Gersman ,   Reston, USA   (02.09.15)
Today Obama has called the terror attack on Jews in a kosher supermarket in Paris last month an act of random violence -- just like Hamas lobbing a few friendly missiles or Iran getting the bomb -- No problem just another act of work place violence
28. 24 10,000 centrifuges
c   (02.09.15)
the ayatollah will not accept any less.
29. The Sooner Sotero becomes Ozero the better. It will reveal
B.E. ,   Whangarei, NZ   (02.09.15)
what he has been all along . . . nothing to anyone of moral character, intelligent understanding of the worst religion ever to have been conceived in hell. What god commands murder of your enemies, and what God commands prayer for your enemies? What God made all men equal in His sight? Not the one to be found in Arabian deserts, rather the one whose temple will again be in Jerusalem and from where He will govern His planet. Global Warning, not Global warming. Sic em Bibi. Americans world wide are behind you and behind Israel always.
30. Obama's ad hominems
c   (02.09.15)
obama has sent out numerous agents to post that netanyahu is a racist and therefore does not accept obama's foreign policy. obama has also accused the american people of being on their "high horse" for acknowledging that the islamic state is islamic and islamic terror exists as a totalitarian genocidal ideology.
