To Speak or Not to Speak
(The Hill) Ben Chouake - For Israel, with just one bomb, Iran can do to the Jews in 12 minutes what Hitler did in 12 years. The P5+1 negotiations with Iran are scheduled to produce a political agreement similar to a letter of intent on March 24. This is why Prime Minister Netanyahu believes he must speak out now against the dangers of a faulty agreement. Rescheduling this after the Israeli election may be too late. The invitation for Netanyahu's address to Congress and timing close to the Israeli election may break typical protocol, but there are life-threatening issues at hand. Netanyahu's upcoming address to Congress is not about insulting the honorable president, which no Israeli leader would gratuitously do. It is about Israel trying to save itself and the world from Iranian terror and its messianic ambitions.
