U.S. Army Lt. Col. (Ret.) Ralph Peters did not mince any words when he spoke about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Congressional speech on Fox News' America's Newsroom on Wednesday, saying, "I thought Benjamin Netanyahus speech was needed, honest, inspiring, and Democrats in response, including the President, acted like bitchy high school girls."
Interviewed by Martha MacCallum, Peters was effusive in his praise of the Netanyahu speech, and frustrated that America had to hear the truth from a foreign leader instead of their own President. He ridiculed the Democrats who objected to Netanyahu's speech.
MacCallum: Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu got a big applause telling in the House chamber Americans there is no difference between the goals of ISIS terrorists and the goals of the Iranian regime and that a nuclear deal with Tehran would threaten Israel's survival and also world security. Lieutenant Colonel Ralph Peters is a Fox News strategist and analyst. He joins us now. What was your reaction? What did you think of Netanyahu's speech yesterday?
Peters: I thought it was pretty damned sad that the American people have to hear the truth from the Prime Minister of Israel about Islamist fanaticism and the struggles we are seeing in the Middle East, and our own president won't even call Islamist terrorism, Islamist terror. Martha, there is no question the vituperative, vicious, Democratic reaction to the speech was because Benjamin Netanyahu told the truth and Obama has not. Netanyahu called him out. And this is a president who still has not leveled with the American people about why he is doing this deal, what the deal contains -- the Iranian nuke deal -- and what the threat is and is not. So again, I thought Benjamin Netanyahus speech was necessary, it was masterful, it was cogent, it was honest, it was inspiring, and the Democrats in response, including the President, acted like snitty, bitchy, high school girls.
MacCallum: Their reaction was quite strong. It does raise the question of why. If you feel so strongly as the administration does that a deal is necessary, they feel a deal they are working on will make the world a safer place. But if Benjamin Netanyahu wants to come and speak this mind in front of Congress as well, in front of Congress which he did yesterday, what do they have to fear in that? If they feel so strongly they are in the right, the Administration and the Democrats who were so incensed as you say, why not let him speak his peace because you feel so strongly that you are right?
Peters' answer was short and biting, "Because liars fear the truth."

Because PM TELLS THE TRUTH.
Watch your back Lt Col...or your mailbox for an IRS audit.
Someone had to say it.
Could explain why he never made full colonel.
Telling the unpleasant truth can have consequences.
They ARE a bunch of bitchy little girls.
Let them be “snitty” in HELL.
Don’t go for any outpatient throat surgery in the near future, Friend.
Current political discourse in the US, particularly that emanating from the DemocRATS, is indeed reminiscent of the behavior of the “cool” clique in Jr. High School.
Hey - that’s insulting to bitchy HS girls.
Bravo Lt Col Peters!
Bibi was so mean to their little mascot.
ROFL! I couldn't have said it better!
Yeh. Grody to the max. We’d have at least scratched Bibi’s eyes out, but Obama and them just sat there talking. Gag me with a spoon.

There’s another little issue as well.
Net’s IQ is on record as somewhere in the neighborhood of 218.
Their “smartest man ever to be president”, off teleprompter, can be estimated in the 80-90 range.
There. Fixed it.
Liars do fear the truth. Hasn’t Satan been referred to as the Prince of Lies?
If this country doesn’t get its act together for good, God is not going to save us from the destruction Iran has planned for us.
