From the speech’s classy beginning when Netanyahu pays respects to the damage that the storms have caused in Joplin, Missouri, to the end where he reminds of us the great alliance between America and Israel by quoting the inscription on the Liberty Bell, both from the one in Philadelphia and the replica that now sits in Jerusalem, “proclaim liberty throughout the land”, this speech was truly inspirational. Every time I hear Netanyahu speak, especially when he talks about Ancient Israel and how it’s a centerpiece in America’s own heritage, I am reminded of what a profound figure he is as the Prime Minister of God’s chosen people, Israel. He is truly a remarkable man and this speech reflects that.
It wasn’t without several instances of protest however, but both Netanyahu and the crowd handled it quite well.
Enjoy this speech. There will be more to come tomorrow as he addresses Congress.
