NETANYAHU
TO CONGRESS: THE ALTERNATIVE TO THIS BAD IRANIAN DEAL IS A MUCH BETTER DEAL:
PM Benjamin Netanyahu told the USA Congress on
Tuesday, March 3, 2015: Iran's regime is not merely a Jewish problem, any more
than the Nazi regime was merely a Jewish problem. The 6 million Jews murdered
by the Nazis were but a fraction of the 60 million people killed in World War
II. So, too, Iran's regime poses a grave threat, not only to Israel, but also
the peace of the entire world.
The Iranian regime's founder, Ayatollah
Khomeini, exhorted his followers to "export the revolution throughout the
world." Iran's goons in Gaza, its lackeys in Lebanon, its Revolutionary
Guards on the Golan Heights are clutching Israel with three tentacles of
terror. Backed by Iran, Assad is slaughtering Syrians. Backed by Iran, Shiite
militias are rampaging through Iraq. We must all stand together to stop Iran's
march of conquest, subjugation and terror.
The greatest danger facing our world is the
marriage of militant Islam with nuclear weapons. If the deal now being
negotiated is accepted by Iran, that deal will not prevent Iran from
deve-loping nuclear weapons. It would all but guarantee that Iran gets those
weapons.
Iran has defied international inspectors on
at least three separate occasions - in 2005, 2006, and 2010. Iran broke the
locks, shut off the cameras. Iran was caught operating secret nuclear
facilities in Natanz and Qom that inspectors didn't even know existed. Iran
could be hiding nuclear facilities we don't know about, and has proven time and
again that it cannot be trusted.
And if Iran's intercontinental ballistic
missile program is not part of the deal, Iran could have the means to deliver
its nuclear arsenal to the far-reaching corners of the Earth, including to
every part of the United States. (Editor's Note: ICBMs are designed to carry nuclear bombs,
not for conventional payloads. RAC)
I don't believe that Iran's radical regime
will change for the better after this deal. Would Iran be less aggressive when
sanctions are removed and its economy is stronger? Would Iran fund less
terrorism when it has mountains of cash with which to fund more terrorism?
The world should demand that Iran do three
things: First, stop its aggression against its neighbors in the Middle
East. Second, stop supporting terrorism around the world. And third,
stop threatening to annihilate my country, Israel, the one and only Jewish
state.
If the world powers are not prepared to
insist that Iran change its behavior before a deal is signed, at the very least
they should insist that Iran change its behavior before a deal expires. If Iran
doesn't change its behavior, the restrictions should not be lifted. If Iran
wants to be treated like a normal country, let it act like a normal country.
Iran's nuclear program can be rolled back
well beyond the current proposal by insisting on a better deal and keeping up
the pressure on a very vulnerable regime, especially given the recent collapse
in the price of oil. If Iran threatens to walk away from the table - and this
often happens in a Persian bazaar - call their bluff. They'll be back, because
they need the deal a lot more than you do.
May Israel and America always stand together,
strong and resolute. May we neither fear nor dread the challenges ahead. May
God bless the State of Israel and may God bless the United States of America.
Thank you. You're wonderful. (Prime Minister's Office)

ARABS SUPPORT NETANYAHU SPEECH: The Saudi-backed
Al-Arabiya news channel ran an extremely pro-Israel article on Tuesday 3 March,
2015 by Faisal Abbas, the editor-in-chief of its English website. Abbas commented
that “Bibi got it right when it came to dealing with Iran. What is absurd, however,
is that despite this being perhaps the only thing that brings together Arabs
and Israelis (as it threatens them all), the only stakeholder that seems not to
realize the danger of the situation is President Obama, who is now infamous for
being the latest pen-pal of the supreme leader of the world’s biggest terrorist
regime: Ayatollah Ali Khamenei (although the latter never seems to write
back!).”
In a separate article the Saudi daily
Al-Jazirah columnist Dr. Ahmad Al-Faraj supported Netan-yahu’s decision to
speak before Congress against a nuclear deal with Iran. “I will conclude by saying
that Obama is the godfather of the prefabricated revolutions in the Arab world,
and he is the ally of political Islam, which is the caring mother of all the
terrorist organizations, and he is working to sign an agreement with Iran that
will come at the expense of America’s longtime allies in the Gulf,” said the
Saudi writer. “I am very glad of Netanyahu’s firm stance and his decision to
speak against the nuclear agreement at the American Congress despite the Obama
administration’s anger and fury,” said Faraj. (Jerusalem Post)

Muslim Immigration Poses
Serious National Security Threat
by Paul Sperry, Investors Business Daily
http://news.investors.com/ibd-editorials
France,
Belgium and now even liberal Denmark regret letting in so many Muslim
immigrants. Their swelling Islamic communities have become breeding grounds for
terrorists. So why is the U.S. opening the floodgates to foreign Muslims?
The threat Muslim immigrants
pose to homeland security was not addressed during the White House's three-day
summit on terrorism. Instead, Vice President Joe Biden assured Muslim groups
gathered during one session that the "wave" of Muslim immigration is
"not going to stop." Wave? More like a tsunami.
Between 2010 and 2013, the
Obama administration imported almost 300,000 new immigrants from Muslim nations
— more immigrants than the U.S. let in from Central America and Mexico combined
over that period. This is a sea change in immigration flows, and it threatens
national security.
Many of the recent Muslim
immigrants are from terrorist hot spots like Iraq, where the Islamic State
operates. From 2010-2013, Obama ushered in 41,094 Iraqi nationals from there.
Now the State Department says it will quadruple the number of refugees brought
here from Syria, where IS is headquartered.
The U.S. will admit as many
as 2,000 Syrian nationals by the end of fiscal year 2015, up from 525 since
fiscal 2011. Yes, the number of displaced people inside war-torn Syria and
Iraq, an estimated 3 million refugees, rivals the most in Mideast history. But
rolling out the welcome mat for them in the middle of a mushrooming war on
Muslim terrorism is dangerously shortsighted.
Top U.S. counter-terror
officials say terrorists could easily slip into the country from Iraq and
Syria, in spite of promised screening procedures for such refugees. "It's
clearly a population of concern," National Counter-terrorism Center Director
Nicholas Rasmussen testified in March.
House Homeland Security Chairman
Mike McCaul called the new policy "a welcome party to potential terrorists."
That's no stretch. If just a fraction of the 300,000 new Muslim immigrants (in
addition to the millions already here) follow in the footsteps of the
Franco-Algerian brothers who recently terrorized Paris, we could be facing
chronic terror in our cities.
The main homeland threat from
groups like IS comes through our immigration system. If they also use our loose
policies as a vehicle for jihad and Islamization, we will face the same crisis
as Eurabia. The British press is reporting that IS has threatened to release a
huge wave of migrants from Libya across the Mediterranean disguised as refugees
to cause chaos in Europe.
Who's to say they aren't
setting a similar immigration bomb for America? Authorities can't even get a
handle on homegrown IS jihadists who are already in America. Why would we risk
adding so many potential jihadists from abroad to the already overloaded
terrorist threat matrix?
The FBI director says he's
got open cases against IS suspects in every state but Alaska. More than 100
American Muslims have hooked up with the vicious terror group in Syria or Iraq,
and at least a dozen fighters already have returned to America and may be
forming sleeper cells to attack the homeland.
These suspects are hard for
agents, already overstretched, to monitor. They've discarded their Islamic
beards and garb and have blended into society. Analysts suspect some may have
even infiltrated the military and government.
While America ushers in
Islamic immigrants, Europe is pulling up the welcome mat. In recent months,
both France and Britain have proposed imposing curbs on immigration out of fear
of importing more terrorists. The bills will likely pass in the wake of the
Paris massacre.
Thanks to mass immigration
from North Africa, France's Muslim population has swelled to 6.5 million, or
10% of its population. More than 1,000 French Muslims have joined Islamic
State. A recent poll found that 27% of French Muslims ages 18-24 support the
Islamic State.
Growing pockets of radicalism
are spreading in towns throughout France. There are "no-go" zones for
non-Muslims and even local authorities, not just in Paris but all over the
country. Authorities say that they've lost control of the situation. Muslim
attacks on police and synagogues are now regular events.
Similar problems are cropping
up in Germany. After an influx of Syrian and other Muslim immigrants, a recent
poll found that 40% of Germans say they don't feel at home in their own country
thanks to "Islamization." America will no doubt suffer the same
nightmares if its Muslim population is allowed to reach a critical mass.
At current immigration rates,
and barring a much-needed moratorium, our Muslim population will more than
double over the next 15 years, hitting about 6.2 million in 2030, according
to a recent Pew Research Center study — "in large part because of
immigration and higher-than-average fertility among Muslims."
Fifteen years from now, Pew
found, America will "have a larger number of Muslims than any European
country" except for France and Russia.
If you think this huge influx of foreign Muslims will assimilate and adopt Western values, you haven't been to Alexandria, Va., or Dearborn, Mich., or Minneapolis recently. They resemble little Cairos... with blaring calls to prayer from mosque minarets...
