Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's full speech to Congress



Watch Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's full speech to Congress
PBS NewsHour
Streamed live on Mar 3, 2015

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed a joint meeting of Congress in Washington, D.C. to say that the ongoing negotations between Iran and the United States would "all but guarantee" that Tehran will get nuclear weapons.


Fast forward 26 minutes to his speech.

This is an archive of their live stream, the first 25 minutes they're just waiting for him to arrive and get to the podium, everyone's just milling around in their seats.

If I watch this, I will be siding with those who wish to bow down to a foreign leader who is trying desperately to undermine the POTUS in his foreign policy talks. I won't do that.
