After weeks of hype and in the face of a concerted sabotage campaign by the White House and many of its allies in Congress, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu seized the moment and delivered a powerful message against the emerging nuclear deal with Iran.

With a mix of passion and steadfastness combined with a detailed prosecutor-like approach, Netanyahu exposed the deal being pushed by President Obama. In short, Netanyahu explained why the deal would guarantee that Iran would obtain a nuclear weapon — a possibility that would not only put Israel at risk of annihilation, but threaten global security.
