Netanyahu: “The greatest danger facing our world is the marriage of militant Islam with nuclear weapons”

Mar 3, 2015 12:05 pm By Robert Spencer

US-ISRAEL-NETANYAHU-CONGRESSA powerful speech. We can only hope that it will be enough to stop Obama from making his disastrous deal with Iran. “We must all stand to get to stop Iran’s march of conquest, subjugation, and terror,” said Netanyahu. But will the U.S. under Obama stand with Israel and the free world?

“Netanyahu: Deal will pave way to Iranian nuclear bomb,” by Stephen Collinson, CNN, March 3, 2015:

Washington (CNN)Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Tuesday that a proposed deal between world powers and Iran would not stop Tehran getting nuclear weapons — but would rather guarantee it got lots of them and leave the Jewish State in grave peril.

In a dramatic speech before a joint session of the U.S. Congress, which has caused a furious row with the Obama White House, Netanyahu said that the proposed agreement would allow Iran’s breakout time — the period that it would take to race to a nuclear weapon — to be much shorter than the one year that the U.S. administration is aiming for.

He also made a case that Tehran was embarked on a long covert terror war against the United States and Israel as well as playing “hide and cheat” to conceal the true extent of its nuclear program.

“The greatest danger facing our world is the marriage of militant Islam with nuclear weapons,” Netanyahu said.

“That is exactly what could happen if the deal being negotiated is accepted by Iran. That deal would not prevent Iran developing nuclear weapons. It would all but guarantee that Iran gets those weapons, lots of them.”

He added that Iranian proxies like Hezbollah were “clutching Israel with three tentacles of terror,” and that Tehran was “charging into the void” and “gobbling up” nations splintered by turmoil in the Middle East as Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei spewed the “oldest hatred with the newest technology. He Tweets that Israel must be annihilated.”

He also warned the United States not to be fooled because it had a common interest with Iran in seeing the demise of ISIS: “The enemy of your enemy is your enemy,” and he warned that the Islamic Republic had a long history of attacking the United States and Israel through a global anti-terror network.

The prime minister began his address by saying that he deeply regretted that his speech to the U.S. Congress was being seen as a political ploy, after walking into the House of Representatives chamber to a hero’s welcome as lawmakers stood and cheered.

“I deeply regret that some perceive my being here as political,” Netanyahu said, in an attempt to defuse the tensions with the White House, adding that he will “always be grateful” to President Barack Obama for his support of Israel, including much that will never be known for national security reasons….

    What about our children’s lives if we allow Iran to get the bomb in the very near future? What about anyone under 70 – 80 years old. B.O. is willfully kicking the can to the end of the road. After that, Iran turns the world to crap.

      Westman

      I understand. I had a grandson in Iraq. He and his buddies were shot at daily and couldn’t return fire short of an investigation. Their trucks were armored and they wore an armored suit to change tires when necessary. They had truck armor protection for up to .30 cal. The Arab citizens had only .30 cal. rifles. These Arabs needed to be shot. Our military brass didn’t know how to fight and were foolishly trying to “win the enemy’s hearts and minds”. The people at the top are either corrupt or imbeciles. No wonder why people are hesitant to go to war. We have totally incompetent (or corrupt) people running Washington. This is by far, our worst problem. I had thought that during the Iraq war that our military would sharpen their skills at fighting these barbarians, but they didn’t. The problem is not our brave soldiers. It is an incompetent line of command. Our military refuses to treat ME fighters like the Islamic barbarians that they are. I am certain that in the inner villages of old traditional tribal barbarians that there were descent people operating in a support roll. Our military wants to treat them all with kindness which the barbarian laughs at and sees as weakness. As a result, the enemy thinks they are winning. Then they fight even harder. The Japanese or Germans would have done the same. They would have laughed at us. This is why we used flame throwers and napalm (even nukes on the Japanese) to take the smile off their faces and change their minds. War is a mind game. After the enemy changes their mind, then and only then, shake their hand as McArthur famously did on the battleship Missouri.

      Any war is hell but it is also the art of making the enemy believe he has lost all hope of winning. It is just that simple. If this is not the goal, we may as well stay at home. Obama is a shining example of incompetence at the top. He is not trustworthy and could not handle a war. To make matters worse, he would not delegate military command to those who are capable.

      Considering all this, we all should back Israel to the teeth. They have the skill. Help them get it done. They know how and what to do. However, I fear that with Obama’s anti-Semitic bias, he would side more with Iran. He is so much like Jimmy Carter and worse. This, I believe, is why Netanyahu made his historic speech…to let the world know why Israel will likely be forced to go to war alone.

      Let there be no mistake, Iran will definitely bring on a war. This is their sworn destiny and duty according to their religious and civil oath. If we allow them to make the war on their terms, it will be nuclear. If on our terms, it will be conventional warfare. While they are Islamic barbarians, they are not criminals. They are soldiers on a mission. We can choose either nuclear war or conventional war if we choose now. Serious sanctions may help delay this decision until we hopefully get a more competent President.

    BIBI NETANYAHU HAS COURAGEOUSLY EXPOSED TO ALL THE WORLD

    Barack Hussein Obama for the weak, dangerous, blundering, reckless, rank amateur that he is. And.standing shoulder to shoulder with Netanyahu are the vast majority of US lawmakers, 85% of the US military and 65% of Iraqi and Afghanistan veterans all of whom given Obama a Grade D as Commander in Chief.. Add to this the disillusionment of most Americans with Obama’s handling of foreign policy and you have a president with no credibility in world affairs blindly midwifing the deadliest and most dangerous Islamic nation on earth in becoming a nuclear armed state. Even if it means destroying Iran with nuclear weapons it must not get the bomb.

      Clinton said B.O. is a rank amateur. B.O. has proved it and now Bibi has illustrated it. We absolutely must re-impose sanctions and bomb Iran’s nuke facilities to maintain peace for our children, ourselves, and the world.

        I can just about positively guarantee that the potus will be on the wrong end of the deal with iran.

        He won’t be running for re election and he don’t care what kind of a mess he leaves behind. Only thing that might be on the posidtive side it just may be the death of the Dems. But then again There are so many believers in the Dem Party out there that they will probably elect a bunch more and a Dem ( Dum) president.too. WHAT A MESS

        Wish we could get someone like Bibi for POTUS I remember he was one of the soldiers that Raided the Entebbe Airport helped kill all the hijackers and sent the plane load of hostages safely to Israel. can’t remember seems like they only lost one or 2 hostages. What a great guy.

    Bibi’s speech was one of the best and most informative speeches I’ve heard in a long time. The comments from democratic lawmakers I just watched was extremely disturbing and upsetting. One thing I have to mention is that the pic on this story shows Bibi in a red tie. This has to be a pic from another speech, he was wearing an Israeli flag toned blue tie today.

    A powerful speech. We can only hope that it will be enough to stop Obama from making his disastrous deal with Iran.

    I fear it will have the opposite effect – Obama strikes me as someone who is unwilling to admit to any wrongdoing and to whom criticism serves as incentive. He seems to be the kind of person who, the more you argue and use facts to explain why he is wrong, the more he is convinced that whatever it is that he believes is right and only the smartest people can see that beyond the pilling up of facts and evidence that proves him wrong.

      (Shia) Barrak Hussain Obama is very intelligent and knows exactly what he is doing: allow/assist Shia Iran to build the bomb. While IS is building a Sunni caliphate, BHO wants a Shia caliphate and America/Israel under Sharia.

    PM Netanyahu gave a historical speech to our Congress. He held back nothing on Iran’s role in terrorism. I remember all the incidents that Iranian sponsored terrorist conducted since the 70’s. If the people in the US do not open their eyes we will see Iranian sponsored terrorists in the USA as they preach Death to the U.S. The sad note is our President, VP and numerous democratic members of Congress failed to show. This is an embarrassment to all Americans. We need a leader who speaks the truth in America like PM Netanyahu. Let’s not repeat history.

    Netanyahu is *beyond* brave as he speaks the TRUTH for a refreshing Change!!!

    And Netanyahu’s words of truth reveal more of how evil and deceitful obama is!! Of course Netanyahu didn’t have to call obama a lying snake because the unvarnished TRUTH has exposed obama for what he truly is. Wow now there’s a man who’s bold and courageous to speak the truth to the world–something evil obama would NEVER do.

    Hope more people will see now that the real enemy is not ISLAM but the brainwashed liberals all around us. That is why I am not optimist about our future. How can our representatives would not present themselves to listen to the PM of Israel which is the front line defense of civilization. This country along with the rest of the worl has gone crazy (ier). God help us.

    I support Israel and all freedom fighters against Jihad.

    This OBAMA is a disgrace to this nation and to the whole world. Shame on his supporters!

    Atomic jihad.

    Muslims with nukes, waging jihad with nukes, slaying-and-being-slain-in-the-cause-of-allah.

    People who are perfectly willing to annihilate the *whole world* in their sheer hatred of everything not-Islam, everything that contradicts the claims of Islam, everything and everyone that refuses to Submit.

    *That* is what Netanyahu is warning us against.

    it is bad enough that hideous Islamic Pakistan has nukes.

    Mahdi-maddened Shiite Iran with nukes is an even more horrible prospect.

    Time to re-post something that I read in the Comments to a blog by Carolyn Overington in the “Australian” newspaper online in January 2009. She had been taking to task a deeply-antisemitic piece that had appeared in the Melbourne “Age”.

    I cannot supply a link as the “Australian” does not seem to have a very accessible archive. But at the time, the moment I read this Comment, by one “Jonathan Whybird”, I copied and kept it and tucked it away for future reference.

    The “meat” of the comment is his account of a conversation with some Australia-resident Muslims whom he had heard screaming “Kill the Jews!” in a ‘protest’ supposedly about Gaza (it was early January and Operation Cast Lead was still in progress as the Israelis delivered a much-needed drubbing to the genocidal Jew-haters of Jihad fortress Gaza).

    So, here it is:

    “Jonathan Whybird

    “Mon 19 Jan 09 (05:24pm)

    “Excellent article Carolyn. I note the earlier poster who said that he/she has sent the article in question to the Anti-Discrimination Commission. I think The Australian should do this itself and report on the outcome – it would be very very interesting.

    “Marcus (the expert on everything) [this “Marcus” was another commenter – dda] I cannot agree with your view that most of the Palestinians [sic: dda] are peaceful people.

    “On Saturday [17th Jan] in Brisbane [state capital of Queensland, Australia – dda] there was another demonstration in favour of Palestine **at which anybody who bothered to go (I live in the city and they marched in my street so I had a front row ground level seat as my fiance and I had come back from a run) would have heard Muslim Australians chanting “kill the jews”.** {my emphasis – dda}

    “I even spoke to one protestor who confirmed he was Muslim and from Iran who said there would only be peace when Israel and the rest of the west was destroyed.

    “Now this man was supported by many of his fellow protestors who screamed with him, but for three men in the crowd who shook their heads and at that point left the protest (and apologised to us for the comments of the others). {Observe, my friends, who were in the majority, and who in the minority. The majority were in agreement that Israel and the West must be destroyed; the minority were those who were not prepared to openly display agreement with such views – dda}.

    “**When I asked the man why he hated the west he said “because you reject the prophet”.** {my emphasis – dda}.

    “Please explain to me how this sort of behaviour should be tolerated? Also why is it that two weekends in a row have seen protests in their thousands against Israel – but the muslim community was silent over september 11, bali and London?” END.

    To repeat:

    “here was another demonstration in favour of Palestine **at which anybody who bothered to go …would have heard Muslim Australians chanting “kill the jews”.*

    “I even spoke to one protestor who confirmed he was Muslim and from Iran who said **there would only be peace when Israel and the rest of the west was destroyed.**

    Note: THAT is what the Muslims of Iran really mean when they say that their nuke program is “peaceful” or is “for peaceful purposes”. Their nukes are intended to force the world to Submit to the arab demon of blood and war, allah; to make Muslims the despots and slavemasters of the world, to impose the ghastly inhumanity of the sharia of Islam.

    And the final sentence that says it all. Remember: this was a *real* Muslim, in a sunny street in summery Brisbane in January 2009, explaining raw Islam in all its ghastliness, to a horrified non-Muslim who, fortunately, remembered it, and shared it around. **Someone really said this**. There is a Muslim – a Persian Muslim – living in sunny Brisbane who **thinks like this**.

    “**When I asked the man why he hated the west he said “because you reject the prophet”.** {my emphasis – dda}.

    “Because you reject the prophet”.

    And that’s it. That’s all it takes. Saying “No” to Mohammed. *That*’s the casus belli. Everything else, all the other million-and-one grievances that Muslims drag up from the deep past or else manufacture out of whole cloth, is just excuses.

    Muslims will not, cannot take “no” for an answer. They are like some psycho creep who, when the girl says “no” to his propositioning, determines upon hunting her down and killing her in order to efface the affront to his vanity.

    Here’s Dry Bones, Yaakov Kirschen, with a few reflections on the current situation. (If you’ve not heard of him, do please, please click on the links; these cartoons are eminently FB-worthy; share them around!).

    Netanyahu, sounding the alarm, like Paul Revere:

    http://drybonesblog.blogspot.com.au/2015/03/two-holidays.html

    And a further perspective:

    http://drybonesblog.blogspot.com.au/2015/03/two-holidays.html

    And this, on the world’s Jew-haters, and Israeli self-defence:

    And this, hoping against hope, in the light of Purim and Pesach:

  12. dumbledoresarmy says

    From Netanyahu’s speech:

    “[Shiite Muslim – dda] Iran and [Sunni Muslim – dda] ISIS are competing for the crown of militant Islam.

    “One calls itself the Islamic Republic. The other calls itself the Islamic State.

    “Both want to impose a militant Islamic empire [that is, a Caliphate – dda] first on the region and then on the entire world.

    “They just disagree among themselves who will be the ruler of that empire.

    “In this deadly game of thrones, there’s no place for America or for Israel, no peace for Christians, Jews or Muslims who don’t share the Islamist medieval creed [that is: “somewhat less-observant Muslims” – dda], no rights for women, no freedom for anyone…”.

    Yup.

    It’s about the Caliphate, and Sunni vs Shiite (and let’s not lose sight, in all this, of the machinations and jihad-funding activities of Sunni Muslim Saudi Arabia, Sunni Muslim Qatar, or Sunni Muslim Pakistan).

    Here’s Dry Bones, putting it in a nutshell:

    http://drybonesblog.blogspot.com/2011/05/two-step-plan.html

    “The Two Step Plan:
    ‘Terrorist no 1 declares: “Our first step is to terrorize, blow up, and kill enough infidels…to establish an islamic caliphate”.
    Terrorist no 2 inquires – ‘And the second step?’
    Terrorist no 1 replies, ‘to terrorize, blow up and kill enough Moslems…to decide who runs it!’.”

    Now…add nukes to *that* equation, which involves millions of brainwashed high-on-Islam megalomaniacal malignant narcissists bent on slaying-and-being-slain jihad fi sabil allah……::: shudders::::

    Just now, I tried posting a comment to this thread, directing people to a number of pertinent cartoons by the Israeli cartoonist Yaakov Kirschen, aka “Dry Bones”. (If you’ve never seen his stuff, please, please, click on the links; his work is brilliant, and often very funny). The comment, however, did not appear; it seems to have vanished. So I am trying again; apologies in advance if this results in a double posting.

    Dry Bones, on Binyamin Netanyahu’s valiant attempts to raise the alarm about the imminent nuclear Jihad:

    And this:
    “it’s simple – It’s about stopping Iran from getting nukes.”

    On the world’s Jewhaters who are hamstringing Israel and would like nothing better than to see half of the world’s Jews annihilated in an atomic Shoah launched by the Muslims of Iran:
