Benjamin Netanyahu to Arrive in the US Today; Obama Administration Will Not See Him

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to arrive in Washington, DC, on Sunday afternoon in preparation for the speech of his lifetime before Congress on Tuesday morning.

On Saturday, hours before his departure for DC, ‘Bibi’ visited the Western Wall in Jerusalem, where he prayed and gave a speech. He said:

On the eve of my trip to the US, I came here to the Western Wall. I would like to take this opportunity to say that I respect U.S. President Barack Obama.

I believe in the strength of the relationship between Israel and the US and in their strength to overcome differences of opinion, those that have been and those that will yet be.

As Prime Minister of Israel, it is my obligation to see to the security of Israel; therefore, we strongly oppose the agreement being formulated with Iran and the major powers, which could endanger our very existence. In the face of this danger we must unite and also explain the dangers stemming from this agreement, to Israel, to the region and to the world.

Netanyahu is scheduled to return to Israel before the Jewish holiday of Purim, which commemorates the ancient Biblical account of how Jews living in Persia were saved by Queen Esther from a plot to annihilate them. The timing of this speech is significant, notes Netanyahu, since “it is the same Persia with a regime that is waving the banner of destroying the state of the Jews. The means by which they intend on implementing this threat is with many atomic bombs.”
