write to draw attention to Israel Prime Minister (Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech) at the United Nations today. As As Daniel Patrick Moynihan demonstrated once upon a time, there is something especially thrilling about the truth being told in this particular forum (a “theater of the absurd,” in Netanyahu’s reckoning). It happens rarely, but it happened today. Attention should be paid:

Ladies and gentlemen, in Israel our hope for peace never wanes.

[yoe]

Netanyahu's speech is so factual and honest, it deserves reading by everyone on Free Republic. It is so abhorrent to good people around the world that Palestine's government is still threatening Israel with her plans of evil destruction.

No More United States Aid To Palestine - it funds terrorism....the United States must no longer be a part of that aid to Hamas which is Palestine.

[Mr. Mojo]

"Well, this is an unfortunate part of the U.N. institution. It's the -- the theater of the absurd. It doesn't only cast Israel as the villain; it often casts real villains in leading roles: Gadhafi's Libya chaired the U.N. Commission on Human Rights; Saddam's Iraq headed the U.N. Committee on Disarmament."

Beautiful bullseye -- right to their faces.

I just wish we could have a leader like him. His speech was amazing. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when he met with our feckless president.

[RoadTest]

Mr. Netanyahu, like Gov. Palin, hurls the TRUTH right in those lying devils’ faces. More power to both of them!

I love watching him speak. Watching Obama just makes my blood pressure go up. You can tell how smart Netanyahu is when he speaks. You can tell how dumb Obama is when he speaks. Polar opposites.

Netanyahu is truly one of the world’s best speakers of this era. I watched the whole speech and highly
recommend it if you have time.

This historical speech is one of the best of this decade. He points out the absurdity/hypocrisy of the UN and of the world. True common sense.

He would make a great US President if only he were a citizen.

He would make a great US President if only he were a citizen natural born citizen.

Fixed it.

(U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 1, Clause 5.)

Netanyahu graduated from high school in a Philadelphia suburb and from college at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. That would be enough by today’s standards.

[ilovesarah2012]

I would love for him to be our president. I think we could get him a birth certificate from Hawaii.

[expatpat]

I’m sure that many of us could get on our computers and build a BC for Bibi just the same way Obama’s most recent effort was made.

[tal hajus]

Did he speak at the u.n before or after his speech at Columbia University?

Oh...never mind...
