Netanyahu: Military threat needed to stop Iran (AIPAC conference)

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the annual AIPAC conference in Washington Monday, via satellite.

Netanyahu began by thanking US Vice President Joe Biden for his strong statement of support for Israel.

Quipping, he began his address by saying, "Well, as you know, I was hoping to speak to you in person, but unfortunately, I had to stay in Israel to do something a lot more enjoyable: putting together a coalition government. What fun! If I can offer a free piece of advice, don't adopt Israel's system of government."

The prime minister said that "Despite the difficulties, I intend to form a strong and stable government in the days ahead," and by the time US President Barack Obama arrives in Israel, later in March.

1. Same horse shit, different day.

"Israel seeks a peace with our Palestinian neighbors, a peace that will end our conflict once and for all. Now, that peace must be grounded in reality, and it must be grounded in security. Israel withdrew from Lebanon. We withdrew from Gaza. We gave up territory. We got terror. We cannot allow that to happen a third time."

so back to what has been a 'winning' theme for him

3. Subtext: >>US<< Military threat needed to stop Iran

He has to direct the attention elsewhere since he hasn't bee able to put together a stable government, but this BS about military threats are not going to come from Israel.

Israel will use one of its 'asks' for a militarily strike on Iran; while they continue the saber rattling towards the Persians. Dumb.

He talks about a verifiable peace. Perhaps it is time for the UN to verify how many nukes they have, and not if they have them.
